The Hester Tudor Series
A series about family, ambition, and second chances.
An unexpected new beginning
The Hester Tudor series follows seventeen-year-old Hester and her fourteen-year-old brother, Elwood, whose move from Los Angeles to rural Pennsylvania sets in motion an extraordinary chain of events. Expecting to settle into their uncle’s New York City brownstone, the siblings are surprised to discover that their new home is instead a sprawling farmhouse surrounded by acres of countryside.
The motel that started it all
On the property stands a long-abandoned motel, a deteriorating structure destined for demolition until Hester, an aspiring fashion designer with an independent spirit and a determination to do things her own way, convinces her uncle to let her restore it. What begins as an unlikely undertaking soon becomes the foundation for a much larger story.
An adventure without borders
As the series unfolds, Hester and Elwood find themselves navigating an increasingly complicated world of family relationships, unexpected friendships, personal ambitions, and remarkable adventures. Their experiences take them from the quiet Pennsylvania countryside to the bustling streets of New York City, across the United States, and eventually overseas.
Determined to make their own way
Blending family drama, mystery, humor, and adventure, the Hester Tudor series introduces readers to an unforgettable collection of characters whose lives become intertwined in ways neither the siblings nor those around them could ever have anticipated. Through it all, Hester and Elwood remain two fiercely independent young people, determined to make their own way in a world that seldom unfolds according to plan.
