Indian Summer

In the sleepy village of Bromfield, Lavinia Larimore has said yes to a man she barely understands. Calvin Stone is handsome, accomplished, and utterly opaque his intentions hidden behind charming distractions and long silences. As the summer fades into the strange warmth of Indian summer, Lavinia finds herself caught between the life she's been promised and the unsettling truth she suspects lies beneath it. The village watches. Her family anticipates a wedding. And Lavinia must decide whether the man she's pledged herself to is the answer to her prayers or the source of her undoing. A quietly devastating portrait of a woman navigating love, deception, and the rigid expectations of early twentieth-century society, this novel traces the moment when a seemingly straightforward engagement becomes a question of identity, courage, and what survival looks like when your future hangs in the balance.
