- “... engaging, captivating, beautiful writing.”
- “Wonderful! Loved every minute of every page!”
- “A sweet reminder of loves lost and new beginnings.”
Jonathan McKendry, the son of a local boatyard owner in a 1940's northern Michigan resort town, is falling in love with Emily Compton, the daughter of a wealthy family who summer in Charlevoix and own the grand ship, the EmmaLee. As class differences and family pressures threaten any hope of the relationship succeeding, a shocking crime shatters their dreams of being together and throws them into a desperate search for a brutal killer.
In a parallel story in present-day, Sally Thomason, a descendant of the Compton's, is thrilled to join the Charlevoix community in welcoming back the family's old yacht, the EmmaLee after decades away. When she meets Alex Clark, the new owner of the ship, her life takes a drastic turn that threatens her current relationship and dredges up past memories of a tragic event that continues to haunt her. As Sally and Alex grow closer, they search for common ground to move beyond the past and build new lives together.
The EmmaLee Affairs plays out against a beautiful scenic backdrop and compelling historical context while exploring the deep emotions of tragic love and loss, and the chilling effects of evil that often lie just beneath the surface of our fragile lives.
