Publisher's Synopsis
In 2001, A.J. Caputa was a young, single mother of 4 year old Emilie. Meeting Samantha Carey, an experienced and out lesbian, would undoubtedly change her life forever. 17 years later, Beauty in the Thunder, finds A.J. at age 43 and once again single. This world weary, experienced lesbian is not the wide eyed girl she once was navigating her way through unfamiliar LGBT waters. Now the mother of two and grandma of one, she finds herself in unknown territory, once again, as she handles some of life's toughest blows with blood, sweat, and tears. But she didn't sacrifice everything to find her own truth just to give up at the first echo of thunder.
