A Heart Harkened

Honesty, like it or not... Constance has been living in a house with her parents, but she is both unruly and unhappy. Her mother's belated attempt to discipline the girl is counterproductive, and the consequences turn out to be unfathomable. "A Heart Harkened" is a dark, well-written tale about what happens once a young woman chooses to follow her heart, then sets out to survive in the wild. The forest where she grew up has so influenced Constance's mentality and behavior, and now it offers her short-term solutions and horrific temptations.
