Produktinformationen zu „Delta Girls (ePub)“
The disparate lives of two women-a single mother working hard to make ends meet and a young figure skater at the top of her game-entwine in an unforgettable novel of warmth, depth, and wisdom.
Izzy and her daughter, Quinn, have been on the move for all of Quinn's nine years. Izzy works the fields as a fruit picker, following the produce north and south through the growing season. When they reach a struggling pear orchard in the Sacramento River Delta, Izzy intends it to be just another way station in their nomadic lives. But the orchard and its kindly owners capture Quinn's heart, and Izzy briefly forgets that she's running from a past that still haunts her-until a strange incident brings national media attention to the Delta.
Seemingly a world away, Karen is a rising young star in figure skating with an edgy, daring new partner. Nathan is everything her old teammate wasn't: sexy, dangerous, and extremely headstrong. As Karen nears her eighteenth birthday, the partners find themselves on the world stage-and the simmering intensity between them finally erupts.
As each woman struggles with a sudden thrust into the spotlight, their narratives become more intertwined-until Izzy's past and Karen's future finally collide.
