LAURA, THY NAME IS PASSION
Romance Novel? No.
Love Story? Yes.
Sheltered in the cradle of Kentucky’s hills and hollows, Laura's passion takes root and springs to life. Her intriguing love story, seen through a mother's eyes, explores family dynamics and the heartache of loving too much too soon.
When warm and loving parents raise their daughter in a devoutly religious home in Appalachia during the mid-sixties, they expect her to lead a predictable life of quiet submission. But Laura is on her own track and refuses to follow the script as her emerging romantic feelings conflict with social norms and the religious teachings of her faith.
Her parents teach Laura to be open-minded, then chastise her when she rebels against a legalism that contradicts her sense of reason and her heart. Her passion triggers a roller-coaster of explosive reactions and irreversible consequences. Heartache and tears become her constant companions as she struggles to find her way.
Her strength and courage are undeniably contagious, and despite her unacceptable choices, Laura manages to woo us into her corner and win our hearts. Maybe, like her parents, we are drawn by the sincerity of her feelings and mesmerized by her passion.
