Synopsis

A beautiful young man, dancing naked at the edge of a pond, is not what Spencer Hill expected to see. It’s 1987, and he has been assigned a ministerial post in a Unitarian Universalist parish in Assisi, Vermont, close to the Canadian border—a far cry from his hometown of New York City. So a “sky clad” wood sprite takes him very much by surprise.

What might have been a ho-hum posting in this remote northern location turns out to be anything but that. The good news: His progressive parish doesn’t care that he’s gay. The bad news? His attempts to make a goodwill connection with The Forest, a nearby Pagan community, are consistently rebuffed for reasons he doesn’t understand.

As Spencer makes friends and enters into a love affair, he begins to explore the fraught relationship he’d had with his late father. And in his efforts to reach out to The Forest, he uncovers a dark secret the Assisi townsfolk don’t want to talk about.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

I am an inveterate observer of human nature, creating stories about all kinds of people, some of whom happen to be gay or transgender or bisexual or intersex-people whose destinies are not determined solely by their sexual orientation or gender identity. I write endings that are realistically hopeful rather than sugary and/or "happy ever after."After my first novel (A Secret Edge) was published in 2007, I was thrilled that readers assumed I was a gay man. I took it as a great compliment. One reviewer had looked at my website before publishing his review and saw that I was not a man. His comment: "I think it's wonderful that a lesbian can write so convincingly about gay males." I took this as a compliment, as well. Even so, it was at that point that I realized I had to come out as straight.I have five novels released through Kensington Publishing and six independently published novels, and I'm currently working on my second three-book series, Blessed Be. Several of my books have won awards and/or found their way onto prestigious "best-of" lists.I write in a butter yellow study overlooking the Boston skyline.
