Hello! I am Christine Twigg
Hello. You’ve found my website!
A bit (brief bit) about myself. I live on Michigan’s west coast in a small town called Frankfort. Frankfort is in Michigans’ Benzie County and we’ve been making national news lately for being such an amazingly beautiful place. It’s true.
I’m the middle of five children, and I have two of my own. I met my husband Scott when I was 25 and am happy to still be meandering, usually purposefully, through life with him (in my 50’s now). Like most people, I wear many hats, have many titles, and I gratefully own all of them. I had a great start to life, being born smack in the middle of the awesome 60’s to a ready-made family that included two solid, determined, loving parents, and two of the best big brothers one could hope for. My sister and younger brother came later adding to our really sweet family. Sound idyllic? It was. It took many decades for the dysfunction to start to seep out between the cracks, but that’s only made everything richer.
My own children are adults now. They’re awesome and I won’t invade their privacy here.
When Edith instigates a new game with her two best friends, May and Peter, on a warm spring day in 1869, she ignites sexual awakenings that will influence and shape the rest of their lives.
Although Edith lusts for Peter, she is aware that May’s desires are directed toward her, and when their triangular involvement begins to splinter, she leaves her two best friends to begin a career in Boston.
However, even after choosing what they thought was the more stable path, they learn that the past is not so easily left behind.
On their separate, yet connected paths, they find themselves drawn together, experiencing eroticism, love, confusion, trust, and grief throughout the course of their lives.
