Book Description
Home to the Fletcher family for generations, Dare Island is a fishing village rocked by changing times--its traditions slipping away like sands of the North Carolina coast. Single dad and fishing boat captain Matt Fletcher deferred his own dreams to support his innkeeper parents and build a future for his sixteen-year-old son. Matt has learned to weather life's storms by steering a steady emotional course...and keeping a commitment-free approach to love. Newcomer Allison Carter came to Dare Island to escape the emotional demands of her wealthy family. The young teacher aims to build a life here, to make a lasting place for herself. She doesn't want to be another Woman Who Once Dated Matt Fletcher. It's both tempting and dangerous to believe she can be something more. Then Matt's brother Luke makes a sudden return home, with a child of his own--and a request that will change all their lives. With a child's welfare at stake, Matt must turn to Allison to teach him to let go of the past, open his eyes...and follow his heart.

Book Description
Maureen Collins, recently named Sister Matthew in the novitiate at St. Euphrosnye's convent in Western Maryland in 1962, doubts the existence of God. She entered the convent for several reasons: she thinks being surrounded by believers might help her believe; she knows she's attracted to women and wants to avoid pressure to date men and marry; and she feels guilty about something that happened when she was in high school. She quickly falls in love with Rose Clancy, now Sister Rose, another novice who also is attracted to women. Rose is more religious, but she reciprocates Sister Matthew's feelings. She grew up with an alcoholic mother and found a refuge among the nuns who taught her. As the two move through postulancy and the novitiate, they encounter many challenges from the strict rules to memories of their respective pasts. The memory of an old murder intrudes in the present. ******* What reviewers are saying: "A landmark book! The first novel to focus entirely on pre-Vatican II novices. Intelligent, romantic, and captivating." Nancy Manahan, co-editor of Lesbian Nuns: Breaking Silence "A faith-challenged novice and her "particular friend" take cloistered life to new heights. A witty, humorous, and deeply thoughtful story about finding one's true passion. There's even a murder mystery." Becky Bohan, author of A Light on Altered Land "Why does a nice Jewish girl like me love a book about nuns? Because it's written by Carol Anne Douglas, a brilliant author who makes me chuckle, cry, and marvel on alternate pages. And because I've learned from her that some nuns, a mysterious group of women I never understood, never traded their humanity when they donned their habits." Ellen Levy, author of Romance at Stonegate "An in-depth examination of convent life in the 1960s that is both poignant and insightful." Elena Graf, author of Occasions of Sin
