A Little About Junie Moon Rising:
The sequel to Goodbye Junie Moon begins where June left off in Washington. She sacrificed her business, and put herself at risk, by becoming a whistle-blower. In Vietnam she had seen so many devastated lives, and now her one goal was to save a life by adopting one of the many orphans she had seen living on the streets.
With no husband, no money, and a flamboyant lifestyle what hope did she have of meeting the adoptive parents’ stringent guidelines? Her only assets were courage, persistence, and determination. The possibility of royalties from a book she planned to write, about her Vietnam experiences, offered the only real glimmer of hope. Can she find a husband and become an acceptable adoptive parent? Only time will tell.
