In a poignant tale of intertwining lives, two women discover their destinies are intricately linked and that inner strength is found in the reconciling of differences.

Catherine Sheering is perfectly content with her quiet, predictable life. A successful chocolate maker, she enjoys living alone and keeping her own company?until she's swept off her feet by rising political star Wes Bickhart. The problem is, she suspects Wes may have a lingering affection for his seemingly perfect ex, Meredith Kelly, who remains an important part of his life. Now she's torn whether to simply enjoy the most satisfying love she's known or to avoid the risk of being hurt again.

After years of personal struggles of her own, Meredith Kelly thought her life was finally perfect, with a wonderful husband and a growing family. But when her dying father, a famously irascible journalist and political kingmaker, requests her help drafting his memoir, she must reckon with their difficult relationship and with their family's haunted past. It's a task she can't accomplish alone?and the one person who can help her is her politically ambitious ex, Wes Bickhart.

Now both women are put to the test as they balance their seemingly idyllic lives with their mutual uncertainty about where Wes's heart really lies, leading them to surprising revelations about each other and themselves.

Easily read as a standalone novel or as an extension of Amanda Gale's Meredith series, Catherine and the Wind is a tale of human frailty and fear, of growth and redemption?and of the sacrifices we make for the people we love most.
