The Foundation

Julie Henson is finally living the life of her dreams. Following a difficult divorce, she remarries and is blessed with the addition of a beautiful daughter into the family. Surrounded by close friends and supported by a strong church family, Julie is content to spend the rest of her life in Morganton, North Carolina. But life doesn't always proceed according to one's plans. Unexpectedly, her husband is required to find new employment, resulting in a move to coastal Brunswick County, North Carolina, and into a very different lifestyle. Julie's life abruptly changes from serenity to turmoil as he is faced with social issues, racial conflict involving her son, suspected infidelity of her husband, and uninvited advances from a younger country club golf pro. Sensing cracks developing in the foundation of her marriage, Julie must decide whether to impulsively flee from Brunswick County or to remain with her husband. And the final decision is complicated by yet another conflict; the arrival of a terrible storm that threatens the very existence of their lives. The Foundation is the sequel to The Neighbor, but can be read on a stand alone basis.
