    About this ebook

    At mid-life, Jessie, after many upsets, moves to an island for contemplation of her life and to make a new start. While there she reflects back on her beginnings in the early 20th century in England, her move to New York City, and marriage at a young age, while making friends with a girl half her age. This friendship opens up a new world for her and helps her explore her own soul. Jessie becomes a part of the island otherwise known as a local as she reinvents her life there and finds love. But all is not as it seems.

    This is J. Schlenker's first novel, written during NaNoWriMo, National Novel Writing Month. It was a finalist in the 2014 William Faulkner - William Wisdom Creative Writing Competition and received five stars from Readers' Favorites.

    Author

    J. Schlenker

    J. Schlenker, a late blooming author, lives with her husband out in the splendid center of nowhere in the foothills of Appalachia where the only thing to disturb her writing is croaking frogs and the occasional sounds of hay being cut in the fields. Her first novel, Jessica Lost Her Wobble, published in December 2015, was selected as a finalist in the William Faulkner - William Wisdom Creative Writing Competition. One of her short stories, The Missing Butler, received honorable mention in the first round of the NYC Competition. The Color of Cold and Ice is her second novel. Upcoming Works are: The Innkeeper on the Edge of Paris and The Missing Butler and Other Life Mysteries (A Collection of Short Stories).
