Romance Historical
Vivid and enthralling, Island of the Doves tells the
story of two women in early nineteenth century America—one
typical of her time, one extraordinary for it—who transform
each other’s lives. Susannah Fraser lives in one of Buffalo’s finest
mansions, but her husband has made it a monstrous prison.
When a mysterious woman offers to help her escape, Susannah
boards a steamboat for Mackinac Island. But after being a
dutiful daughter and obedient wife, it is only as she flees
that she realizes how unprepared she is for freedom. An exceptional woman of early America, Magdelaine
Fonteneau has overcome convention to live a bold and
adventurous life, achieving great wealth and power as a fur
trader. But Magdelaine has also seen great tragedy and lost
all that was dear to her, and she is no longer sure her
hardened heart is capable of love. Now, Magdelaine seeks redemption by offering safe harbor
to Susannah. But as their friendship grows into something
miraculous, it changes each woman in unexpected ways. Each
needs to learn to love again, and only together can they
realize a future bright with the promise of new life…
