FOREWORD REVIEW"A charming and sensual exploration of the tension between social norms and personal freedom, Adirondack by A. Dudley Johnson, Jr., is a delightful, escapist read. The novel depicts a community of temporary summer residents who delight in one another's trials and tribulations. Anna Tattersall is a young mother who expertly plays the part of a doting wife. Rumors abound when her husband, Will, leaves the family at their summer home for long stretches to focus on his work in the city. The central tension unfolds during this one brief summer season in 1897. In Will's absence, Anna busies herself with hikes through the local foothills; rich, sensuous descriptions of the gorgeous natural world firmly root the story in its lush, mountainous setting. One of Anna's ventures results in a chance encounter with a Native American man named Ausable who defies the persistent stereotypes of the day, and to whom Anna feels insatiably attracted. Anna and Ausable's affair is passionate and idyllic, but real life soon beckons. Anna must decide how to navigate the expectations of her community and of society at large, as well as how to balance them with what her body and soul truly desire. When Anna decides changes need to be made in her family's lives, there is no turning back, and the fast-paced narrative echoes her determined move forward. Anna is a refreshingly complex protagonist whose lack of shame about her own sexuality and adventurousness sets her apart. She is never in doubt that she deserves happiness, nor does she seem to feel an overwhelming sense of duty to put anyone else's needs."

BOOK VIRAL REVIEW"Evocative and confident period storytelling, Adirondack makes a fine debut with Johnson, Jr. rendering complex romantic events in strikingly personal terms. Rippling with late 19th-century melancholy, it is the story of a time and place where two people are forced to confront their passion, and here Johnson, Jr. demonstrates a canny ability to navigate love at its riskiest and the most necessary gamble in anyone's experience. He also instinctively understands the devices of suspense and tension and uses them to maximum effect. Not by stringing a series of contrived events one after another in a tedious stream of clichés, but by creating a pervasive sense of longing that is marked by a heightened degree of sensitivity and tact. Yes, this is Anna Tattersall's story but in bringing her character to life Johnson, Jr. reminds us that love is a universal phenomenon that has no regard for the boundaries of time or social conscience. Without a shadow of doubt, there is enough in Adirondack to sate the most demanding of Historical Romance readers. An intoxicating debut by Johnson, Jr. it is recommended without reservation."
