Three novellas, inspired by the author's own journals about her relationships, life and work in the forests of Oregon, comprise The Eve Chronicles. From the Waters of Coyote Springs: Eve searches for meaning to her life while working in the forest of the Wallowa Mountains in Oregon. Felix and Eve: Eve is hired by Felix, a cantankerous elderly man who needs round-the-clock nursing care. Once Felix accepts her, he tells of his relationship with Al Capone in Chicago during the 1930's. The Arrangement: Each year under a special arrangement Eve spends the summer on Catalina Island with Sid, a retired college Professor and Eve's former lover, who has a debilitating type of Multiple Sclerosis. An irony is that the author, having left the forests to work with people as a care-giver, was later diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. This afforded her opportunity to retire early and focus on writing.
