North Star Resort tells the story of a family struggling to form, to survive, and to embrace the gifts of nature and love to sustain their health family life. Lynn North is a single mother who bears twin children out of wedlock, but who shoulders the responsibilities incurred with caring for her children as well as her Alzheimer's stricken father and auto-accident brain injured sister. While she maintains hope of reuniting with the father of her children who is oblivious of her young family, she understands that the immediate daily needs of her children, father and sister are the command issues in her every breath. She focuses on the wellbeing of her immediate family. When Patrick Joyce, the love of her life, is drawn back into her life, Lynn recognizes that the young man is caught in a mix of grieving for his recently died brother and the shock of learning Lynn's children were his. Lynn's vision enabled her to anticipate the emotional and developmental journeys that Patrick must complete to become fulfilled and mature in taking on the responsibilities of his life as Lynn's companion and the father of their children. North Star Resort is a story of family building bonds of love in their boreal boundary waters home in Minnesota's northernmost tier of the country where nature and love magically blend into themes of heartfelt commitment to the notion of family.
