Two-time Pushcart Prize nominated (2013) author, Alida Winternheimer, delivers a story of love and longing in A Stone's Throw. Simona Casale is a Minneapolis painter with a successful career. Having never known her mother, the last thing she wants is a baby, and being at a pivotal moment on her artistic path, it's a bad time to find out she's pregnant. Gemma Ledbetter, a London homemaker, is desperate for the baby she can't have. Simona and Gemma live an ocean apart and never meet, yet they have much in common: art, longing, and a magic that changes both of their lives. And then there is Peter, the man they love. Magic-like any great act of creation-comes at a price...and one of them will have to pay. Art. Love. Magic
