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.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Shy Julie Johnson of 1967 dreams of a different life. The seventeen-year-old wants popularity, a clique of friends, and boys calling for dates. When she finds a secret door in the old Carnegie Library, she exits into the rustic world of 1907, where she must learn to trust strangers for the first time in her life. With nothing to lose, she ventures out, one step at a time, from her tightly guarded existence. She finds that making good friends like Debby is easier than she thought, and a handsome boy, Ren, wants to hold her hand and take her to a dance. But when a notorious outlaw, the Apache Kid, learns about the Yavape' Apache magic that transported Julie, a native woman warns that her life may be in danger. The Kid has been on the run for years, and this seems like the perfect way for him to escape. Knowing she must learn the reason for her presence here, Julie tries new things, takes risks, and finds life with her guardians, Rilla and Charles Keeler, can be fun and rewarding, even without makeup, running water, or electricity. But when the Apache Kid kidnaps her and drags her into a remote area in the surrounding mountains, Julie faces her biggest test. Enduring pain and hardship, only her faith and a message from the Apache Maiden's spirit sustain her. Sharing the Maiden's message for the Kid only enrages him, leaving Julie afraid for her life, but the Kid leaves her to be rescued. Her trials are not over as he continues to stalk her, and when the right storm rolls in, Julie and Charles find him waiting for them. Attacking Charles, the Kid drags Julie into the portal, releasing her at the last minute. A few weeks later, Julie leaves her friends and arrives back in 1967, a changed young woman with a new perspective and confidence. She soon has a visit from a person out of the past who provides the answers to her questions about those she left behind. In their honor, she intends to live the life of her dreams.
