Ivy Deans is a writer who bases all her novels on things that happen in society. She continues to spend her time doing extensive research into the human condition and over the years, she has come up with quite a number of themes on which to focus. One topic that many seem to avoid is that fact that women still get themselves into highly precarious situations. Ivy focuses on women who are focused on one goal and in the long run, they will do anything to achieve that goal. They will accept a certain deal until they get too far in to get out and then they just have to accept that reality.
