Sarah Bowers and her family return to Beaufort during Sarah's sixteenth summer. She is looking forward to dates with a young fellow she met briefly the summer before. Evenings together and sailing aboard the Willa with Bruce McCoy add to her happy days of summer fun. All is well until a visitor from Ohio comes to town. All thoughts of Bruce vanish. Sadly, when the visitor leaves, Sarah finds herself spending lonely evenings "on the shelf." Seeking answers to her dilemma, Sarah turns to her dear friend, Capt. Jake, whose wisdom and advice help her learn one of life's valuable lessons.

Sarah Bowers, now a young lady of seventeen, is anxious to have her portrait done by her dear friend Leland Davis. However, Sarah is shocked and dismayed to find Leland's idea of a location is a windswept beach. Barefoot, with carefully-curled hair in disarray, the girl with enormous gray eyes stares unsmiling into the camera. Her face, framed by long-stemmed sea oats bowing gracefully in the sea breeeze, becomes a point of interest in Leland's studio for years to come.

More fun and adventure on the Carolina Coast. Sarah Bowers and her family return to Beaufort in the summer of 1945. Papa Tom takes his grandchildren to the health department for a vaccination which will prevent typhoid fever. The grandfather's bravery disappears when he learns it is time for him to be vaccinated, too. Sarah helps Miss Nettie through a terrible ordeal and discovers how happy it makes her feel to practice the Golden Rule. Faced with a dilemma, Sarah must decide if she should she speak up and help a person falsely accused of a crime, or if she should remain silent?

Elora's past lay hidden in a web of lies and half-truths; the secrecy weaved by her uncle to keep her from harm, or to keep her from harming the world. But she put her voice to a song, the wrong song and now the web is unravelling and she begins to understand why she is different, why she has violet eyes, why she has a ferocious temper that erupts on the slightest of whims. A darkness is rising, the tide growing stronger as legions of an evil army, loyal to a dead God, prepare to cross the weakening barrier to deliver chaos and death to Earth. Elora maybe the only weapon Earth has to stand against the evil, if she doesn't destroy the world first.

Dylap was the sound his body made when he was dragged from the river and with no memory of who or what he is, Dylap was what they named him. Farro, an ancient city of fairies hidden deep in the Farrosian forest, is forced to find a place amongst its kind for this strange outsider shrouded in mystery: a flightless fae with spines instead of wings that sting when touched. A creature loathed and feared in equal parts yet must be sheltered by fairy law. Dylap must adapt to his new surroundings, the fae class system, the Moonflower fairies, pixies wood knolls and squabblers amongst other creatures of the forest. A task only made harder as his past comes to him in visions and snatches of dreams; a darkness slowly focusing to reveal his true identity – but as Farro struggles to fight against a monstrous falcon that haunts its skies, and the strange disappearances of its own fairies, will it cope with the revelation of what Dylap truly is? The darkest fairy-tales are those told by the fairies themselves…
