Orphaned at the age of ten, Laura OConnor is swept from a haphazard home-life into a neighbors family before she can come to terms with her mothers death. Grace Lindsey welcomes her with open arms and an open heart. Content with life as it is, Sam Lindsey has no good reason to refuse Laura a home other than his dislike for her mother and an avowed aversion to watching his wife risk the devastation of yet another loss. Personalities clash as Grace and Sams son, David, enters the picture, stirring in Laura a host of feelings complicated as she matures by the family situation and her friendship with his wife. Desperate for a way out, her life spirals downward into a series of irreversible choices that leave her disillusioned, disheartened, and afraid she has compromised love and home even as they come looking for her.
Windswept is the opening novel of a series in three parts that follows the Lindsey family as they grapple with the bonds of family, the power of forgiveness, and the capacity of love to heal and transform.
