Bayou Perdu, a tiny fishing town way, way down in Louisiana, is home to sixteen-year-old Evangeline Riley. She has her best friends, Kendra and Danielle; her wise, beloved Mamere; and back-to-back titles in the under-sixteen fishing rodeo. But, dearest to her heart, she has the peace that only comes when she takes her skiff out to where there is nothing but sky and air and water and wings. It s a small life, but it is Evangeline s. And then the storm comes, and everything changes.

Review of 'Between Two Skies' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

I read Between Two Skies on a plane ride and was so glad there was nothing to interrupt me as I fell into this story of loss, love, and the unshakeable longing for home. This is a beautifully written story through and through. Its vivid descriptions brings Louisiana to life; its love story is sweet and touching; and Evangeline's heartbreaking desire to just go home is so real you feel the need in your bones. A stunning debut!
