Pathfinding Women: An 1890s Mother-Daughter Novel (Waxwood Series) / Waxwood Series (ePub)

Sometimes the past refuses to stay in the past.

Waxwood, 1899: Vivian Alderdice is twenty-six, unmarried, and has no prospective suitors. Her brother's tragic plight the year before left the family on shaky ground in Nob Hill society. Their social position depends on Vivian capturing the heart of a wealthy Canadian bachelor determined to become a member of their exclusive society. But to win him, she and her mother must spend the summer in Waxwood.

Waxwood brings back memories of Vivian searching for her grandmother's identity and uncovering family lies she wasn't prepared to deal with, but she's determined to leave all that behind her.

Then a young man on the train brings those skeletons out of the closet again, and Vivian finds herself torn between fulfilling her social obligations or embarking on another journey that might lead her to uncover more family lies.

Will Vivian's summer unravel family truths that might destroy the Alderdices for good? Or will she unearth a more authentic version of herself as the new century approaches?

What reviewers are saying:

"This series is for those who love the era of gentile literature, the Jane Austen and Little Women-type stories of family saga, of noblesse oblige and grasping for status just before the rise of the middle class in America." - Lisa Lickel, author and blogger, Living our Faith Out Loud

"Vivian, the main character is definitely a voice of change and rebellion against the high society expectations that a young woman's sole purpose in life was to pursue and catch the best possible husband."

"This is a fascinating read about the challenge of being a woman who wants her freedom when societal expectations tell them that they shouldn't."
