a message from Juan-Carlos Cruz’s co-author
I am devastated to hear the news of my co-author, Juan-Carlos Cruz’s arrest. I am shocked by the situation. I have known Juan-Carlos for nearly six years and consider him my friend as well as a talented colleague.
We have worked closely over the past nine months on The Love Diet
. I know him as a giving individual who is passionate about inspiring others to change their health through diet in the way Juan-Carlos changed his own.
It was this passion that sparked our collaboration on The Love Diet, a book that combines our love for food, his knowledge of diet and mine of aphrodisiacs and sexual health to get home cooks excited about eating well by eating for a better libido. In fact, leading by example, Juan-Carlos even speaks candidly in the book about the role of health in maintaining a loving 30-year relationship with his wife.
It is because I still believe that, no matter the outcome of this situation, it is a good book filled with great recipes and valuable information, the publication of The Love Diet will continue on schedule. The Love Diet will be released on June 15, 2010. I hope you can look past this terrible situation and see the book and its recipes for how fantastic they are.
