Beyond the Bitter Winter

New Orleans - 1855

New Orleans beckoned to her, a place that held no memories, but yet it had a siren's call. She'd been taken far away, to Oregon, as a infant.
Here she was, after a life of poverty, cruelty and hardship, back to where she'd been born, hoping that her kin would take her in.
The grand house stood before her, in stark contrast to everything she'd ever experienced.

Her past made her run away, from the tragic memories left on that lonely mountain.
Why had her mother never told her about her opulent childhood? Her mother's few letters had led her to this place.
Could she trust anyone with her secrets? Could this long-lost family accept her?

This new glittering world holds beneath it's surface a society built on the scarred backs of others.
In this strange world of high-society, can Mischka find a place within it and make a difference?

Christian Historical Fiction - Set in New Orleans

Political, racist, purely fictional.

Ridiculously fictitious. virtual voice subpar. Couldn't even get past the first several chapters. This author is now on my "Avoid this writer" list.

engaging storyline could have been written so much better.

good storyline however rather poorly written. what this author needs is a better editor who knows how to correct her redundancies and inconsistencies in the story.
