The thriller will be available for purchase on Amazon December 1st.  Those who purchase the book on that day are invited to attend the private reception. To gain entrée to the event, they must bring their Amazon receipt. For more information about the novel please visit www.theracingheartnovel.com

Avery Dimmig, owner of Badgley Mischka Palm Beach, is donating a portion of the evening’s sales to Kettle Comfort--- a non-profit organization whose mission is to reduce hunger using the technology of kettle cooking and chef inspired food to reach Palm Beach County’s most vulnerable. “It’s not about feeding the needy, it’s about cooking for those in need,” says founder Tim Gannon

Monies will also be raised through photo opportunities with Guy Cosmo and the iconic Tequila Patrón Ferrari F430GT. Donors will be thanked on site with a generous Cornelia Fifth Avenue gift item worth $60.

The event is generously sponsored by La Cacciatora Wine, Fonte de Medici Mineral Water and Cornelia Fifth Avenue.
