For as long as she can remember, Gabrielle Hope has had the gift of knowing--visions that warn of things to come. When she and her mother joined the Pleasant Hill Shaker community in 1807, the community embraced her gift. But Gabrielle fears this gift, for the visions are often ones of sorrow and tragedy. When one of these visions comes to pass, a local doctor must be brought in to save the life of a young man, setting into motion a chain of events that will challenge Gabrielle's loyalty to the Shakers. As she falls deeper into a forbidden love for this man of the world, Gabrielle must make a choice. Can she experience true happiness in this simple and chaste community? Or will she abandon her brothers and sisters for a life of the unknown? Soulful and filled with romance, The Outsider lets readers live within a bygone time among a unique and peculiar people. This tender and thought-provoking story will leave readers wanting more from this writer.

The story starts in 1812 in Kentucky, USA. Gabrielle lives in a Shaker community, cut off from worldly influences as much as the Elders and Eldresses can manage. One night a barn belonging to the community is set on fire, presumably by a local troublemaker, and Gabrielle?s particular friend Nathan is rescued from the flames by a local Doctor who had come to help. Although he is an Outsider his skill is needed and despite the fact that Shakers are not supposed to have particular friends, Gabrielle is allowed to help Dr Brice Scott nurse Nathan. From then on Gabrielle?s once peaceful and committed life is disturbed by worldly thoughts of Brice but any such thoughts are considered sinful and must be punished. When war rages in the northern territories the Shakers ignore what is going on, but Gabrielle?s thoughts are with the Doctor and Nathan who have gone north. I finished this at midnight, it?s a good read!
