Who are these moon maidens?
Summer of ’94 and Connor Whelan is excited to spend the last three months before his senior year with his uncle in Texas. Aware this trip is due to his mom’s cancer treatments, he still hopes this will be a season of magic.
He gets his wish when he encounters three magical women one night. Claiming to be from the moon itself, bewitching Iluna, flighty Eiru, and motherly Cassiopeia are about to make Connor’s last summer of childhood one to remember.
However, his interest in local girl Laura puts him in hot water with her tough boyfriend. His fascination with Iluna also confuses him. Will the moon maidens’ lessons about joy, wonder, and hope get him through this crazy summer?

Be happy to host Brian next year.
Sounds great hope it will be a success.
Yvonne.
This sounds like a great YA fantasy. I love that it's contemporary. I'd be glad to mention his book in my Follower News. I can't offer him a stop because my February schedule is already booked. Sorry about that. But I'm glad to help how I can.
Thanks, Alex.
Thank you, Natalie. I'll be sure you get all of the information early next January.
Looks like an interesting book.
Hi Diane - he sounds like he's had an interesting career ... so I imagine his book will give some twists and turns. Good luck to him and to you for your promotion by Dancing Lemur Press ... his talks would be fascinating to hear. Cheers - Hilary
Congratulations to Brian, and to you/Lemur Press, Diane.
Sounds like fun! Congrats on the new book.
I can help with either or both.
Sounds like a fun read. The cover is great.
Did you catch any of the weather?
Fortunately, no! Scary how much flooding and landslides hit your side of the state. Although we will be getting feeder bands from the storm off the coast today.
I will email you about My Magic Summer.
Congrats! I'd be happy to host!
I'd be happy to host Brian on his tour.
Fantastic cover! I'm late to the party, but I hope the book does well.
