Once Again

About the Book

The Wandering Vine trilogy is based on three aspects of a spiritual journey through life.  Even My Family, book one, is about finding your own path and following it.  Cries of Freedom, book two, is about surrounding yourself with unconditional love.  Once Again, book three, is about releasing negative karma.

In Once Again, book III, the heroine, Elizabeth Randolph, continues on her path; a path that contains fear and heartbreak, as well as joy.  She must release the urge to blindly follow her emotions if the joys of life are to continue to open up for her.  She must not struggle.  She must allow peace into her soul, but will she?  

Her anxiety is fueled by her nightmares.  Or are they memories from a life long ago?  Ruben Stone’s continued presence, after what Elizabeth believes he has done, keeps her from letting the joys of her life to unfold.  Is it her mind or her memory that makes her hate him so?  Will she let him destroy her?

Rebeccah Wickford, now a young woman, must face her lineage or hide it forever.  Will she continue to live as the Boston Brahmin her friends and neighbors believe her to be?  Or will she acknowledge her lineage, possibly leaving her in the abyss between the white and black communities, never accepted by either one?

George Parkman always deferred to John Appleton, Elizabeth’s husband, in the past.  Will he continue to acquiesce his future to others?  Or will he step up and finally make his feelings known?

Will this family, created by Elizabeth, let their hearts determine their paths?  Or will their joys be strangled by the past?
