Hollywood Screenwriter and Father of Triplets Falls in Love...in Print?

HERNDON, VA, March 31, 2011 (Press-News.org) Robert Krantz does, and he's not afriad to say--or write--it. The actor, writer and producer of the award-winning movie "Do You Wanna Dance" has taken inspiration from his true-life love story with wife (together for two decades, a near record in Hollywood terms) and their triplet sons and poured those emotions into his first novel Falling in Love with Sophia.

On the day of the release of his movie, "Do You Wanna Dance?" Krantz found out his wife was pregnant. With triplets. All boys. Krantz, a hands-on father, would tuck the boys in every night, and on many a night they would ask him to stay because they were afraid of the dark. As he sat in their room watching them fall into a blissful sleep, he would reflect back on all that had happened in his life. Then one evening, he turned on a night light, pulled out a pen and paper... and began to write. He wrote about family, he wrote about faith; he wrote about holding onto dreams; he wrote about "Falling in love with Sophia."

The book has become an Amazon best seller and has garnered Krantz rave reviews from around the world. Krantz, a first time novelist but longtime successful screenwriter, finds himself being compared to best seller Nicholas Sparks, which he finds "humbling and amazing."

About Falling in Love with Sophia:

When he met Sophia, Michael Alexopoulos knew there was something special about her. The way they looked at each other, the way they talked to each other, the way they felt about each other...it just seemed different. He knew they were meant to be together. Forever.

Being sixth graders, however, posed a problem.

Yet the hand of destiny has a long reach, and although their lives took some difficult twists and turns, fate would bring them back together years later. Michael proposed, Sophia accepted, and their fate seemed sealed. What happened next would change their lives and make Sophia and Michael question whether their love would last forever. Is it true that there is someone in this world that you are destined to fall in love with and spend the rest of your life with? Michael Alexopoulos was about to find out.
