Maximilienne Carpentier is an elusive and enigmatic figure. As
fascinating as the island she lives on, this guileless and
emotionally vulnerable woman is betrayed by her lover and left for
dead by her family, yet through all these conflicts she still finds
the courage to oppose-and the heart to forgive-those who have
threatened her.
Her cousin Emilie, however, is cut from different cloth, and her
subsequent situation is as unwelcome as it is challenging. Cared
for by strangers after being shipwrecked, she must find her way
back to her island legacy, not only to bury the past, but also
provide for the future. What she meets along the way, however, is
an emotional storm far outweighing the hurricane that destroyed her
ship, and as the revelations about her inmost self rise up to
confront her, Emilie is hard-pressed to find the closure she
seeks.
As related in their diaries, the stories these women tell of
their passionate love and unwilling retribution are both poignant
and frank, and make remarkable reading.
