Theena's Landing

In 1880s Florida, settlers are building new lives along the Miami River, where tropical flowers, dangerous reptiles and violent storms are part of everyday life. Theena Theophilus is a lonely young girl who loves the Everglades and the bay and simply wants to be loved in return. Worried that her mother's scandalous past will mark her, she tries to live honorably, even though she is drawn to a love that cannot belong to her. Through hardship and heartbreak she grows from a girl who acts without thinking into a woman who seeks her own dignity and dreams.
