What would you do if everything in your life felt wrong, that you had no control over your own fate, like you had married the wrong man? What if, when tragedy strikes, you find out you did.
Mary Alice married Alex Williams of her own free will. Or did she? Trapped, like the white heron she was given as a wedding gift, she finds herself living a lie, while the truth watches silently from the shadows.
She has no idea that a mysterious event has caused her to forget the one man she'd promised to love and cherish forever.
Devoted to her, that man isn't ready to let her go.
They all live in the Shadow of the Heron.
Part of the proceeds from the sale of In The Shadow of The Heron until March 20, 2015 will benefit the Amber Coplin Memorial Donation Drive:

Amber Lynn Coplin was brutally murdered by her boyfriend in Port Orchard, Washington in November. Photos were then callously posted on the internet. She was a devoted mother of FIVE young boys who will now spend this Christmas season without their mother. With permission from the boys’ father, Paul, I am donating a percentage of my book sales through March 20, 2015 to a fund to help ensure that they have all of their physical needs met.
Individual donations can be made through GoFundMe at http://www.gofundme.com/gtq2rc. This is the ONLY fund that I am aware of that directly benefits the five boys. Please join me in supporting the surviving victims of this horrible tragedy.

C.A. created characters you love or hate, and combined them with some we recognize from history. The way she weaves her story around events in history is sheer genius.
Mary Alice brings the reader along for the reliving and retelling of her life. We meet those that are near and dear to Mary. I laughed at some of her tales, cried at others, and absolutely wanted to strangle a few of the characters more than once. I am in awe of how Mary Alice and her daughter Bella are so strong and handle everything thrown at them.
I couldn't imagine getting the phone call that makes me realize my entire life could have been a mistake. Can you??
