It's the year 1890. Hannah Maxfield is a teenage daughter of an Appalachian Mountain Healing Woman who wishes to follow in her mother's footsteps of offering her isolated and impoverished community medical care through herbs and untraditional remedies.
Edward Nelson is an arrogant new doctor, fresh out of the Philadelphia Medical School, who abides by his Aunt Margaret Thompson's request to come to the Eastern Kentucky settlement and apprentice under her husband, Dr. Henry Thompson. Mrs. Thompson, a former society lady of Philadelphia, herself, secretly hopes Dr. Nelson takes over the practice completely so her husband can retire and rescue her from a state of loneliness.
An Appalchian Story pitches the old against the new, unconventional medicine against proven science and the innocent beauty of a country girl against the refined and educated charms of an aristocratic doctor.

The Witches of Waxahachie: Curse of Twin Oaks
Breaking a curse isn't easy, especially when your great-great-grandmother was a Victorian witch who spelled her own family. Join 16-year-old Lily Killough on a magical adventure through time to heal ancestral wounds and break the ties that bind in this intergenerational YA mystery. All her life 16-year-old Lily has dreamed of attending the annual Victorian Ball in her hometown of Waxahachie, Texas. When she lands her first job with the company catering the party, Lily gets a glimpse of the opulent event from behind the scenes. As she pokes around the Queen Anne-era Victorian mansion Twin Oaks House, Lily discovers a thrilling secret. The original owner of the property is her great-great-grandmother, a once-powerful matriarch disgraced over accusations of infidelity and witchcraft. With the help of her departed ancestors (and her crush), Lily is transported through time to attempt to right the wrongs of the past. But after revealing the disturbing origins of a generational curse imprisoning her family and their magic, will Lily have the power to break the chains and rewrite history? Only time will tell.... and, unfortunately, the clock is ticking. Lily must solve the mystery and return to the present day before the Victorian Ball is over at the stroke of midnight.
