Finding Herself in the Glow of the SCORPIO MOON

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. - April 16, 2015 - PRLog -- In her debut novel, SCORPIO MOON, Branson, Missouri resident, Kayla Purtizo, takes readers with her on a journey of self-discovery, ala the styling of Eat, Pray, Love. Enthralled by the virtual gropings of an ex-lover, recently divorced, Kayla, fights to maintain balance, protect her children and decide if opening her heart again is the best course of action. Stalked, threatened, used and broken, Kayla digs deep into a long-forgotten past to find hope for the future; learning once and for all that sometimes we must let go in order to hold on.  In this heartwrenching and enlightening tale, love, lust, right and wrong warp into an adventurous odyssey as Kayla's faith is put to the test beneath the amber glow of the Scorpio Moon.

Kayla Purtizo lives in Missouri with her two children.  She enjoys spending time with family, traveling, trying new foods and, when she can escape reality, loves to bask on the white sands of the Caribbean. Having earned her Bachelors degree in Economics from Lincoln University, Kayla finds herself ever fascinated by the changes in the world around her. Wearer of many hats, she is not only a mom, sister, daughter and friend to all, but a patriot at heart and lover of God and country.

Scorpio Moon, published by Global Publishing Group and released April 17, 2015, is available in paperback and Ebook from Amazon, Smashwords, Barnes & Noble and other on-line retailers. For more information visit http://www.amazon.com/author/kaylapurtizo
