Destiny (Forever & Always #1)
Cindy Springsteen, Lee Porche

She takes us in a maze of her imagination to the deepest depths of her being. Her life-long compassion for young love flows in her writing like that of Ann Tyler, and the subtlety of Alice Munro.
Springsteen offers us a raw look at her life in this, her debut novel, which feels like it came from a seasoned novelist, and she is not only a gifted portraitist but also an author to watch in the future.
