Fifteen-year-old Kate Christenson is pretty sure she’s about to experience the
worst possible summer at her grandparents’ rural farm in Baudette, Minnesota.
Without cable, cell phones, or computers, she is headed for total isolation and
six tedious weeks of boredom.
Until the storm.
A freak lightning accident has Kate waking up in 1960.
But she is not herself. She’s the aunt she never met but has eerily resembled her entire life.
Thrust into living a dirt-poor, rural farm existence, Kate struggles to make sense of her situation - a boyfriend with a dark side, a “townie” who steals her heart, and the knowledge that 1960 is the very summer her aunt drowns in the local river.
But was the drowning an accident or a suicide… or something much worse?

A handful of tea bags, Tetley works best.
Place in a saucepan three-quarters full of water.
Add enough sugar to rot your teeth.

Pour over ice in a pitcher. Add water to fill.
Serve over more ice in a cup guaranteed to sweat.
No other embellishments needed. This sweet summertime treat of the South is guaranteed to cool you off on the hottest day.

for his wife’s favorite maid is becoming more and more ardent. With Jenna and

encounter with Lord Edwin seems to seal Jenna’s fate. Set amidst the harsh and
windswept moorland of 1840’s Cornwall, A Fateful Wind tells of hidden secrets,
familial destinies and a love that can never be denied.
