Synopsis

Hearts of granite forged by dreams and etched with time. One family, one journey, many paths, all guided by the strength and wisdom of one amazing woman. Granite Hearts continues the tale of early Maine settlers introduced in The Spruce Gum Box fighting to not only survive, but thrive, along the developing 1800's Maine waterfront and construction of the majestic Fort Knox despite hardship, prejudice, and the growing turbulence between the states.

About this title

From the Author:

Granite Hearts is my second novel. My award-winning debut novel, The Spruce Gum Box, began with my fascination with Maine's Aroostook River and it's early pioneers, and evolved over several years of research and daydreaming until the characters began to drive the story. New England native, I now live in Eastern PA with Cal, my husband of over 52 years. Please visit eewilder.com.

Review:

"Granite Hearts is a story that compels you to keep reading, yet makes you want to slow down so you can savor it. Reading it, I could smell the early morning crispness of a winter day, smell the pines and hear the rushing rivers. It gave me a sense of how my own ancestors must have lived." ~Pat Cher, author of Mi'kmaq Song
