Books like The gift of summer by Lynda Trent


BEING AN OUTCAST SUITED SUMMER FINE Folks in Beasley Creek routinely gave Summer Ashlin wide berth. The healing powers she'd inherited had benefited many over the years, yet fear and distrust were still her closest neighbors. But when Clay Patterson turned his back on the Houston rat race and retreated into the Big Thicket, he found himself unable to understand Summer's gentle acceptance of the community's hostility. Summer had always believed that love could work miracles. But now her faith waivered. She feared her consuming passion for Clay would diminish the strength of her special gifts.
