Ormond Beach resident and author Lisa Passi is releasing a book in July.
Published by Mona Lisa Press, Passi's book is titled "The Deal," and immerses readers in a love story entwined with the high-stakes world of real estate, according to a press release. Set in 1988, "The Deal" tells the story of Jaclyn Tate, the daughter of a preacher and schoolteacher who earns a reputation as a top commercial real estate broker in Manhattan. Her mentor then selects her to open a new office in Dallas, where she is thrust into one of the most competitive real estate deals of her career — all while an unexpected romance takes root.
Passi is the former president of Drew Pearson International, a global marketing enterprise. She is a business consultant and public speaker. She has lived in Ormond Beach since 2017, when she moved to town to restore the "Captain's House" at 2627 John Anderson Drive.
