Becoming Fenimore

Within our belongings, pieces of our soul remain, waiting to live again


Upon learning she is the only living beneficiary of a late aunt's estate on far away Mackinac Island, Elle Curtis finds an unusual array of items connected to 19th Century writer Constance Fenimore Woolson--a discovery that will lead her on a journey and change her forever.

Her aunt's link to Constance remains a mystery until an ancient scarab pin acts as a portal, thrusting Elle into Constance's nineteenth century world where she literally lives in her shoes, speaks with her voice, even writes her stories, slowly becoming, as close friend Henry James calls her, Fenimore.

But there is someone else on the island who knows about the scarab, and they will do anything to get it. With the help of her aunt's lawyer, handsome Jace Stokes, Elle works to get to the bottom of the mystery, clear her aunt's name, and solve a string of mysterious deaths.

But she can't stop thinking about Constance and Henry and longs to go back. Torn between these two worlds, Elle grows obsessed with saving Constance and winning Henry's affections. Risking her life and the life of her new friend, Jace, it will take more than willpower to save her in the end. It will take that of transcending love.
