Product Description
Email from the Edge defies today's
world of political correctness where every word is carefully censored so as not
to offend anyone. Kristie Leigh Maguire is open, honest, and sometimes
over-the-top funny in her email correspondence with her friend back in the
States with whom she shares her thoughts and feelings while living
overseas as an expatriate wife during the decade of the 90s.
Emails from the Edge, gives the reader the feeling of being a
voyeur, pulling back the curtain of friendship, and finding out they are not
just talking about milk and cookies.
USA Today Bestselling Author Rebecca Forster had this to say, "A bold, honest look at how two cultures collide and lessons learned. Some may think KLM politically incorrect; I say she is courageous to share her honest feelings and inner thoughts. It is really gutsy and fascinating."
Back Cover Blurb:
Saipan is a tropical island with clear blue waters, sandy beaches, tropical flowers, swaying palm trees, gentle breezes and warm and friendly Micronesian South Pacific natives - plus the added bonus of being a U.S. territory with American goods in the stores and with American money as the local currency. What more could a girl ask for?
All of the Japanese people on the tour were oooohing and ahhhhing over all the duty free shops and souvenirs. I was in the local version of Wal-Mart, oooohing and ahhhhing over shampoo and conditioner, body lotion, Pepto Bismol, Tylenol and Motrin - and generally running wild through the aisles like a crazy woman!
I got up before dawn each day and sat out on my balcony by myself while my husband slept. As I watched the sun come up, peace flooded my soul. That old church song, "Precious
Memories", kept playing itself in my mind like Daddy used to sing it in church. I sat out there and watched the colors tint the clouds and the ocean waters while the refrain of "Precious memories, unseen angels, how they ever flood my soul, in the stillness of the midnight, precious memories scenes unfold" played over and over in my head.
I was reborn. I found myself again. I knew that I was on the edge but I had not realized how close I had come to losing myself till that moment.

review is from: Emails from the Edge: When Friendship Spans the Distance.
(Kindle Edition)
When the author opens this book with a lighthearted
look at an American compound in Saudi Arabia for the wives of American workers,
I thought what a fun read. However, like any good author, Kristie Leigh MaGuire
took no time and slapped me upside the head with a plot twist that kept me glued
to the pages. No longer was she going on shopping trips, sipping tea and playing
cards in relative luxury, her husband's next posting to Japan left her lonely, a
little frightened, a lot frustrated and clinging to a lifeline provided by
emails to a friend back home. What is truly unique about this book is that it is
incredibly honest to the point of being courageous. MaGuire did not sugar coat
her experiences, she did not choose more politically correct assessments of her
host country to keep herself from criticism. Indeed, this is an incredible tale
of when two cultures collide. I felt as if I was listening to the author's most
private and unguarded moments as she is brought to tears by the simple act of
trying to find the grocery, by perceived - and real - slights to her as a
foreigner. I could feel her loneliness as well as her continuous hope that
things would get better. This is a testament to human spirit - good and bad -
and how we all react when thrown into a situation that leaves us no touchpoint
of normalacy. Ms. Maguire's observations were harsh at times, but read between
the lines and you will find a story that will make you wonder how you would
handle yourself in the same situation. For my part, I live in an area where we
often have Japanese families come to live for a year or two. Emails From The
Edge has made me think twice about how welcoming I am to those who do not speak
my language, cannot navigate my city and are lonely for their homes.

This is a fun glimpse into a private conversation
between two women, talking about Japan, Saudi Arabia, and the United States and
touching on friendship and what it means to live abroad. It's quick, interesting
read with an intimate feel, like finding an open email box when you're in a
cybercafe somewhere abroad and snooping in on someone's interesting
conversations. You know you shouldn't, but you keep reading, curious to find out
where the conversation turns next. Amazon Review:

Have you even wanted to eavesdrop on a conversation
between friends just to see what they are thinking? Well, Kristie Leigh Maguire gives you that opportunity.
This is the real life conversations that occurred between friends when one of them was in Japan. It carries you through all the drama, hardships and laughter that the author went through in trying to adjust to life as an American in a foreign country.
If you ever thought it would be fun to "hack" into someone's email to see what makes them tick, this is your chance.
You will laugh, cry and laugh again at the trials and tribulations that an American in Japan would go through.
I recommend that you join the author and her friend in their lives.....well, just eavesdrop on them.

This was a very compelling story of how a woman
survives having to live in a foreign country with all the difficulties of not
being able to communicate with the local people and not understanding the new
culture or being able to fit in. Especially, since this was a civil job in
another county without the benefits of living on a military base and without the
company of other Americans. It is a total foreign world where you feel closed in
because you are unable to communicate with anyone. Can you imagine having to
shop and not be able to read the labels on the food? Or not being able to know
what kind of meat you are buying? It was a very thought provoking story of what it means to experience real friendship between two people who met and becames friends while their husbands worked in Saudi Arabia. I enjoyed the personal relationship between Marge and Sandy. After leaving Saudia Arabia, Sandy went back to her home town in Texas and Marge having gone to Japan with her husband as a contractor. Marge is feeling so isolated and alone. Sandy becomes the person, Marge has to confide in and talk to and it reflects such an intimate relationship.
It was very profound just how lonely you could be in Marge's situation. She was so fortunte to have found such a loyal friend in Sandy. It goes beyond a superficial relationships. These two became like family when they met in Saudi Arabia and their friendship continued to thrive after they had parted. The ironic part is that if Marge and Sandy had met in the United States they probaly would not have been firends due to such differences in personalities and backgrounds. But, it shows how we can reach out beyond our own walls when in need of a friend. And what a wonderful and unique bond these two women found in each other.
The conversations by email, phone and letters were those of two real people who shared their personal lives with all of the joys and sadness. It was the only way Marge had to remain connected to anyone while living in Japan. I found it very interesting at how these two people developed such a excellent bond and relationship. It is rare that we ever meet and are able to an make such a deep committed friendhip. It is a excellent insight of the importance and values of real frienship. I also enjoyed a lot of humor in this story.
A new insight on an age old problem of loneliness and friendhips. A voice from the real world. The bonds that we build can be of the moment or a lifetime. However, it proves that we all need someone and especially a friendship that binds as these two did. A terrific and fast paced book of a real life story. A unique Story of frienshsip and courage. I recommend this heartfelt and well written story by Kristie Leigh Maguire.

The beautiful and sexy Marcie Treyhorne is a steel magnolia who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go after it. Marcie's story began in DESERT HEAT. Her saga continues in CABIN FEVER. Marcie leaves the blistering heat of the desert but the searing passion she carries to the northern Nevada mountains will melt the deepest of winter snows. The ending is a twist that will hit you like a runaway train. You won't want to miss this one.
Reader Nina Osier stated, "Once again the Treyhornes' bedroom action fairly scorches the pages, but this time we readers are in for more than a tale of unconventional romance. As we pass through a turning point in Marcie's life with her, the questions she asks herself seem eerily familiar.
