Content descriptions
Summary, etc.: | Calla Lily Ponder bursts into life--guided by Moon Lady, a protective feminine force--where she thrives in her small Louisiana town until the end of her first love pushes her to Cresent City, where she discovers she has the power of "healing hands" to change lives and end pain. In the small river town of La Luna, Louisiana, Calla Lily Ponder enjoys a blissful childhood at her mother's side, learns the art of healing through the humble womanly art of "fixing hair," and encounters first love with a boy named Tuck. When Tuck leaves her, Calla transforms her sorrow into inspiration and heads for the wild and colorful city of New Orleans--where she realizes the full power of her "healing hands" and Tuck presents her with an offer that is colored by the memories of lost love. |
