Book Description
One of the most popular storytellers of all time, V.C. Andrews (Flowers in the Attic, My Sweet Audrina) continues an engrossing saga of psychological suspense with this second book of the Landry Family series—soon to be a Lifetime movie! Fate has whisked Ruby away from a simple life in the Louisiana Bayou but her new riches bring more treachery than happiness in this unputdownable and darkly evocative novel. Even a year removed from living in the bayou, Ruby still wonders at the splendor of her family’s New Orleans mansion. She rejoices in the love of the father she had never known, even as true happiness remains as elusive as swamp mist. Her stepmother sneers at her backwater upbringing, and while discovering she has a twin sister should be a cause for joy, Gisselle has greeted Ruby with nothing but a bitter heart. When Ruby’s father chooses an idyllic boarding school for his daughters’ senior years, a fresh start with Gisselle seems possible. But Ruby’s kind isn’t welcome at Greenwood, and the legendarily strict headmistress plots with her stepmother to make life miserable. Worse, with her twin on a mission to break every school rule, Ruby is left to suffer the humiliating punishments. So when a terrible tragedy leaves Ruby alone in a world that never really wanted her, only her Cajun strength can give her daring escape plan any hope of success. The weather on the bayou was nothing compared to the storm about to tear through her family.

Book Description
After suffering an injury that will lay him up for nearly a year, St. Ninian’s Sanctuary’s maintenance man Huck Deveraux is angry. For years working at the spiritual island retreat center has been his sole identity, and it keeps demons from his past at bay. Now he’s alone and unsure who he really is. Pearl O’Day is the new head of the hospitality department at the retreat center, and she’s also the only single mother on the island. She’s not sure she belongs here, and that feeling gets worse when a few of the staff members agree that she might not shine the best light on the center. Stuck here at the bottom of the world, she wonders what will happen if she has to leave, since she has no life or family left anywhere else.

Maybe God is ready for Huck to face his pain and identity, and maybe it’s time for Pearl to accept forgiveness for mistakes in her past. Toss in a little island danger and some meddling staffers, and Huck and Pearl can’t help but learn more about themselves, each other, and the mysterious island on which they live, including solving a part of the mystery surrounding the identity of the trust that runs the retreat center. As the Mist Scatters is book two of the St. Ninian’s Sanctuary series, small-town Christian contemporary romance with an island twist.
