"Reinventing Jenna Rose," propels the reader on a fast-paced journey through the life of a young girl who's determined to realize her self-worth and overcome the trauma of a childhood where she was forced to be the "muse" for her child photographer father's "art." Left alone after her parent's divorce, Jenna uncovers evidence of a grandmother living in New York City. Jenna resourcefully takes herself across the country and lands on the Upper West Side of Manhattan doorstep of her affluent maternal grandmother. A street-smart New York neighbor girl, a quirky therapist, a white German Shepherd, and a story-telling grandmother join forces to help Jenna overcome the hardships of her past and the shattering family secrets that soon come to light. This moving, funny, quirky novel, is infused with humor and literary references while relating a multi-generational family saga and legal thriller in the voice of a courageous young woman.
