Welcome to Mackinac Island stories that stand alone, but a richer when read in order. Being Ethel (In a world that loves Lucy) is a clean story filled with mystery, romance, friendship, faith, and quirky characters. It's where we meet Piper Penn and find out how she ended up on Mackinac Island. How does a known shoplifter from San Francisco end up being friends with a quirky I Love Lucy-loving nun from St. Anne's? Next in 1980, Being Dorothy (In a world longing for home) follows Piper Penn on Mackinac Island where she meets a couple at the Grand Hotel. But, are they really who they seem? Think James Bond!
Then, it's 1980 and Being Alice (In a world lost in the looking glass) where a woman with a disfigured face ends up being the music tech for the rockstar she's long admired. More mystery, romance, friendship, and faith happen and something really unique? The song in the book which is the hit for the fictional character J.D. Grayling can be heard on You Tube and Apple music - all the info is in the novel. More novels are planned, all taking place on this magical island in The Straits area of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
Next, it's Being Wendy (In a world afraid to grow up). She's not enjoying her 50th birthday party because she doesn't trust any of the guests after what's been happening to her. Is it time for a new beginning, or is someone working to prevent that? More mystery, romance, friendship, and faith happen on her way to never, never land. It's a great story with a very surprising ending!
