Summer Light — Linda McGinnis

Alonzo Herrera has lived in the shadow of his brother for most of his life. After a bitter fight over the woman they both love, he leaves the pueblo, but can't leave behind his dream of helping his people with a water harvesting system. Luz Fragua is a photographer from Jemez Pueblo. The last thing she expects at a demonstration dance at the Pueblo Indian Cultural Center is to photograph a dancer as haunted and powerful in front of the lens as she is behind it. The attraction between them is immediate, but so much stands in their way-how can she trust a man who has left his culture behind? And how can he face the future with a woman whose photographs expose that culture-both the beautiful and the tragic? And yet...the fire that sparks when they're together is more than either can fight. Can the two of them realize their dreams side by side, or will the darkness win out over the light of love?
