"A lyrical, beautiful collection of short stories written in a heart-warming, emotional manner. Stunning." —Lauren G, Reviewer

In “ Driftwood,” a woman in a sleepy desert town willingly jumps into the back of a stranger’ s pickup to escape her quiet house. In “ Griffin,” an organized wife struggles to keep her family together and keep the beast of her husband’ s mental illness away. And in the title story, “Resonant Blue,” an egotistical architect shatters everything around him as he tries to connect with his loved ones and build a better life.

A game show for those seeking love, a family wedding that unveils another secret union, a woman’s impulsive trip to Greece to find her first love— in these twelve stories, Vensel White’ s characters face turning points. Whether backed against a wall, reeling from a loss, or forced to confront a painful truth, each doggedly pursues the glimmer of possibility shining on the horizon.

This is now on NetGalley and available for preorder:

“When I think of my mom’s family, I think of the Christmas party they held on the third Sunday of every December, and, more specifically, of the white elephant gift exchange that became, over the years, the party’s most important feature. Participants in the exchange included my cousins, my aunts and uncles, and my grandpa. Also my grandma, until a massive stroke left her unable to speak or easily move on her own. Even after that, though, she maintained a presence at the gift exchange, silently presiding over the festivities from the comfort of her green leather recliner."

It was the most important family event of the year, and this is how it worked:

Each participant brought one wrapped gift, which was assigned a number by my Aunt Carol (my mom is one of seven children), famed throughout the family for her scrupulous organizational skills. (We later learned that these skills allowed her to successfully embezzle much of my grandparents’ income during their retirement years. At the time, she told us she was just helping them with their taxes, and the whole thing would have stayed a secret forever if she hadn’t kept meticulous records of her years of theft in a bankers box under her bed which her children found after she died. In the end, I guess her attention to detail cut both ways). ”

“It’s no good if you magic him into it,” I said. “You gotta play fair, Ruby. Who wants a man you had to spell to love you?”

“Lots of girls do,” she said,” Rose Perkins, for one.” Word was that Rose had got a charm from Ruby’s grandmother to make Bud Perkins fall in love with her.

Ruby’s Gran was the witch of Bear Hollow, and folk went to her for charms and cures. Ruby was learning witching from her. She looked witchy, too, in a pretty way, all black wavy hair and big, green eyes and pale skin. It beat me why all the men trailed around Grace’s skirts; Ruby was prettier by a long shot.

“We’ll make a true-love knot in a tree,” she said, “and it’ll never, ever come undone.”

“Ruby Miller, if you magic my brother, I’ll never speak to you again!”
