Amy had a rough junior year. Trying to escape her abusive boyfriend a mother and stepfather who were probably glad to have some time alone, she moved from her Seattle neighborhood to a tiny town in the north Cascades with her aunt. Trying to start a new life in a small, rundown trailer in an unwelcoming rural town isn’t easy, until Amy meets Henry in the misty clearing behind her aunt’s trailer. Henry is totally unlike her ex-boyfriend Quinn. Henry is a gentleman. Soon Amy finds out just how different – Henry and his family live in 1944. But the fact that Amy is able to move through the mist threatens the existence of Henry and his family.
These two teens have a lot to learn from each other: Amy must learn to trust again, and Henry has to learn to face his fears or neither one of them will be able to move on with their lives. A sweet romance that is not too sweet, with a touch of the paranormal that will appeal to teens, this novel should appeal to girls in middle school and up.
