September Wind Book One

By Kathleen Janz-Anderson

THIRD ADDITION 2023

A stunning story of love, betrayal, innocence, and hardship and, trust me when I say this, you will need a box of tissues to hand. The attention to detail is second to none and you can't help but be transported into the story. The character development was excellent; Anne-Marie Reynolds - Readers' Favorite>

A gripping story that features a character who is richly developed, with her humanity deeply explored in the story and her growth through hardship and struggles. It will bring tears to the reader's eyes. Romuald Dzemo Readers' Favorite

The plot is enthralling and is written to make readers think they are there with Emily at each step in her passage to young adulthood and the attainment of her quest for freedom. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in this series. September Wind: Book One is beautifully written and a joy to read; it's most highly recommended. Jack Magnus for Readers' Favorite

1942-1960 Emily Alexis Rezell was born and lives on her grandfather's farm as an orphan. After her God-fearing grandmother dies when she is seven, she is left with a burden of misfortune and hardship. Only after the school board forces Grandfather's hand is she allowed to attend school. There, she experiences her first real friendship and the thrill and pain of an innocent young love. At eighteen, her bag is packed, and she is ready to start a new life. When someone tries to stop her, she escapes the horror and hops a train out west. Emily arrives in San Francisco, wide-eyed and filled with hope. Planning a new life was easy, but her inexperience leaves her vulnerable to those who take advantage of her naivety. Nightfall is just hours away when a crafty waitress takes her to a place called The Palace, known by some as the House of the Rising Sun, where Miss Bea is cunning as she draws Emily in. Emily realizes she's been betrayed. And as much as she wants to slip away, she is stuck, sure the police are searching for her. Yet through it all, her grandmother's words of love and instruction are a source of strength. A handsome gentleman shows up with a long-time patron and sweeps her off her feet. He captures her heart, and for the first time in her life, she knows where she is headed; that is, she hopes this is the man who helps to set her free.
