OVERVIEW

This book goes back and forth between two time periods. In modern times, we have Pearl whose father values being unique, even eccentric, over everything else, including social graces. Did this keep her from being normal? Her father, a well-known Southern author just crossed something out and started over, but this was in his books not in real life. Yet, Pearl was always desperate for a fresh, new start just like her father’s writing.

The life and romance of Abel and Stella was another story in another time where Stella gave up everything she had for the love of Able, yet felt she gained so much more.

Can Pearl gleam from Stella what is really important in life? Will her desperate attempts to change her life really help her in the end?
