When a sudden rainstorm drives shy teenage Julie Thompson into the town library, she never expects a friendly Native American spirit to push her straight into the past. One moment she is a girl from 1967; the next, she is standing in the Elks Opera House of 1907, facing a world as unfamiliar as it is unforgiving.
Taken in by a strangely familiar woman and her deputy sheriff husband, Julie must learn how to survive in a rustic frontier town where every day demands more courage than she believes she has. With the help of Ren, an attractive young stagehand, and Debby, a lively new friend, Julie slowly discovers that trusting others may not be as frightening as hiding from them.
One brave step at a time, Julie finds the confidence to audition for the town musical, accept kindness from unexpected places, and believe that a nice boy might truly want to take her to a dance. Inspired by strong, compassionate women like Rilla, Sharlot, and Francis, she begins to understand that becoming her true self means living beyond fear and beyond the opinions of others.
But when the thunder of a wild summer storm awakens memories of home, Julie's longing to return becomes impossible to ignore. And when the outlaw Apache Kid learns of the Yavape' Apache magic that brought her here, Julie faces a danger far greater than stage fright. To survive-and to find her way back-she must rely on the bravest magic of all: faith, trust, courage, and the inner knowledge that she is stronger than she ever imagined.
