She Who Wears the Crown

By Amy Carlile

Clarissa Rogers has built a quiet life out of small, steady things: pageant committee meetings, Sunday mornings at church, a young neighbor's drawings that can't quite catch the marsh light. Then a borrowed camera puts her three paces from Trapp, a photographer with wine bottle dark green eyes.

Over a year that carries her from a September morning on the marsh to a June crowning, Clarissa finds herself pulled between old routines and a new kind of hope, one she's not sure she's allowed to want.

A story about second acts, small towns, and starting over.
