The Hurricane Lover
Polarized politics, high-strung Southern families and the worst disaster management goat screw in US history backdrop the deadly game of cat and mouse that continues to unfold as Hurricane Ophelia taunts the East Coast and Hurricane Rita wreaks havoc on the Houston metroplex.
Rodgers, a bestselling author and ghostwriter living on the Gulf Coast, volunteered during relief efforts in the aftermath of Katrina and experienced Hurricanes Rita and Ike firsthand. She knowingly writes about the dramatic megastorms, weaving in the elegant forecasting of meteorologists around the world and actual emails to and from FEMA director Michael Brown (later released through the Freedom of Information Act) as she spins this fast-paced, emotionally charged, surprisingly funny tale of two cities, two families, and two desperate people caught up in the storm.
From the reviewers:
“Alternately wrenching and humorous…Rodgers’ strength is a knack for realistic characters who show their faults unselfsonsciously and a womanly wise, laugh-through-tears appreciation of life.” Publisher’s Weekly
“Every character resonates with life.” ~ Southern Living Magazine
“Unconventional love scenes scorch the pages.” ~ Orlando Sentinel
“Wise [storytelling] choices and the right amount of grit.” Texas Monthly
