This isn't a coming out story. Nor is it the tale of a lonely heart seeking companionship. This is about survival.My name is Nathaniel Courtney and I'm a survivor. Instead of letting the cruelty of others wear me down, I grew strong. I didn't allow hard truths, secrets of where I come from, challenge my identity. I even weathered the softer, more subtle hardships of the heart. Love is a Trojan horse, sneaking through the gates, forcing you to let down your guard, and leaving you ransacked and vulnerable. I emerged from that war not unscathed but as a new man. The only mistake I ever made was letting the right guy get away. Now I've got one more chance. I've been fighting my whole life, and this is the final battle, because if I fail now... I won't. You'll see. Just sit down and listen to my story, Kelly Phillips, and when I'm done, please don't walk away. When I'm finally through, take this weary solider into your arms so we can find peace together.Something Like Thunder is the sixth book in the ongoing Something Like... series, shedding light on past events while leading the reader toward an exciting new future.The Something Like... series:Book 1: Something Like SummerBook 2: Something Like WinterBook 3: Something Like AutumnBook 4: Something Like SpringBook 5: Something Like LightningBook 6: Something Like Thunder

In 1808, the Russian Ship St. Nikolai ran aground off the Olympic Peninsula; this novel is based on this astounding historical event and the lives of the people affected. In 1808, eighteen-year-old Anna Petrovna Bulygina is aboard the Russian ship St. Nikolai when it runs aground off on the west coast of Washington State on the Olympic Peninsula. The crew, tasked with trading for sea otter pelts and exploring the coast, are forced to shore into Indigenous territory, where they are captured, enslaved, and then traded among three different Indigenous communities. Terrified at first, Anna soon discovers that nothing—including slavery—is what she expected. She begins to question Russian imperialist aspirations, the conduct of the crew, and her own beliefs and values as she experiences a way of life she never could have imagined. Based on historical record, Anna, Like Thunder blends fact and fiction to explore the early days of contact between Indigenous people and Europeans off the west coast of North America and offers a fresh interpretation of history. "An intimate engagement with a little known ghost of North American history and memory." --Jaspreet Singh, author of Helium and November“/p>

But as they attempt to unravel the mysteries of time travel to save their siblings, they learn that the magic of their friendship may actually be the key to saving themselves.
