PASADENA, Md. - Marylandian -- Creative James Media releases the second book in Marie McGrath's Honey Cove series

The Winter Heals is the second book in Marie McGrath's coming-of-age Honey Cove series, set in the southern United States. It highlights the problems of fitting in, meeting family expectations and obligations while trying to find oneself.

Shelby Rowe was stuck between two worlds—the one she wanted and the one everyone else wanted for her. As the daughter of a prominent family in Honey Cove, Shelby's life was out of her control. Her friends, interests, and even her love life was controlled by others.
When a new girl moves to town, Shelby's life was turned upside down as she gets a glimpse of what life could be like—no obligations, no pressure. As the Christmas break begins, Shelby is left stuck between what is expected and what she feels is right. Split in half, Shelby has to make decisions to correct her life and heal her spirit.
