Emma Field Novel Series

Read and re-read by soulful young people and the adults in their lives, this series is about the young Emma Field who grows up amongst the Quakers of her pioneer community of Bloomfield, Canada. Her further adventures take her amongst the Quakers of Nine Partners, New York, and later the runaway slaves and Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) of the Great Lakes.

Williams' writing has been described as the combination of earth, edge and steadiness. If you like the writing of Lucy Maud Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables), Gabrielle Roy (Children of My Heart) and Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist), you will enjoy these books.

Book One

Emma has dreams and desires that call her to go beyond her father's struggle to survive as an immigrant in Canada West in the 1840s. With the love of the Quakers and her own courage, she takes her first tentative steps at understanding the world around her.
Emma Field, Book One, is a story of birth and death; and of the stirrings of body and soul, the desire for beauty, the ache of loneliness, the drive for independence and the pain of envy. It is a story of love and dignity and the power of taking risks.جميع الحقوق محفوظة

Against Fear بقلم girlbetweentheworlds

Sent against her will to an isolated boarding school in the heart of the Canadian mountains, Emma finds herself confronted with an environment as wild as it is unfamiliar. Between the shock of being uprooted, the challenges of communal living, and the trials imposed by Blue Mountain, she must face her deepest fears. In this majestic setting, where nature asserts its silence and power, Emma discovers unexpected friendships, marked rivalries, and a delicate balance between freedom and vulnerability. Yet behind this quest for resilience lies a more intimate truth: the battle against her own demons, in an initiatory journey of solitude and self-transcendence. Through breathtaking landscapes and a cast of endearing characters, Against Fear invites readers to explore the inner strength that lies dormant within us all. -I'm sorry for my English, I'm French. So please be forgiving if there are any mistakes.

But when a gorgeous newcomer arrives in town, Austen falls hard and fast. Her sweet trusting nature mixed with wild passion has him sizzling hotter than the summer sun, and Austen begins to realize that there are some promises he might not want to keep. However, there is more than Austen's integrity at stake when lies and betrayals shake the sleepy town awake, and Rose is forced to face the truth of her father's past. ---This is Book 2 of the Ever After Series. The plot completely stands alone, however, it does give away a few spoilers for Book 1, Tame the Beast---
