Vivid and enthralling, "Island of the Doves "tells the story of two
women in early nineteenth century America--one typical of her time,
one extraordinary for it--who transform each other's lives.
Susannah Fraser lives in one of Buffalo's finest mansions, but her
husband has made it a monstrous prison. When a mysterious woman
offers to help her escape, Susannah boards a steamboat for Mackinac
Island. But after being a dutiful daughter and obedient wife, it is
only as she flees that she realizes how unprepared she is for
freedom.
An exceptional woman of early America, Magdelaine Fonteneau has
overcome convention to live a bold and adventurous life, achieving
great wealth and power as a fur trader. But Magdelaine has also
seen great tragedy and lost all that was dear to her, and she is no
longer sure her hardened heart is capable of love.
Now, Magdelaine seeks redemption by offering safe harbor to
Susannah. But as their friendship grows into something miraculous,
it changes each woman in unexpected ways. Each needs to learn to
love again, and only together can they realize a future bright with
the promise of new life...
Richly detailed, vivid, and unforgettable, this is an extraordinary
novel about three women challenging the American West--and
unpredictable fate--for a future only the most daring can secure...
For Clara Bixby, brokering mail-order brides is a golden business
opportunity--and a desperately needed chance to start again. If she
can help New York women find husbands in a far-off Nebraska town,
she can build an independent new life away from her own loss and
grief.
Clara's ambitions are shared by two other women, who are also
willing to take any risk. Quiet immigrant Elsa hopes to escape her
life of servitude and at last shape her own destiny. And Rowena,
the willful, impoverished heiress, jumps at the chance to marry a
humble stranger and repay a heartbreaking debt. All three struggle
to find their true place in the world, leaving behind who they were
in order to lay claim to the person they want to be. Along the way,
each must face unexpected obstacles and dangerous choices, but they
also help to forge a nation unlike any that came before.
A richly imagined, remarkably written story of the woman who
created "Little Women"- and how love changed her in ways she never
expected.
Deftly mixing fact and fiction, Kelly O'Connor McNees returns to
the summer of 1855, when vivacious Louisa May Alcott is twenty-two
and bursting to free herself from family and societal constraints
and do what she loves most. Stuck in small-town New Hampshire, she
meets Joseph Singer, and as she opens her heart, Louisa finds
herself torn between a love that takes her by surprise and her
dream of independence as a writer in Boston. The choice she must
make comes with a steep price that she will pay for the rest of her
life.
