Cajun Harvest of Heritage

In the Heart of the Bayou, History Finds Its Match.

When Aponi Sneed arrives in Grand Cane, Louisiana, she's chasing the threads of a story that began long before she was born. Her grandmother Woya, a proud Cherokee woman who followed love across state lines and defied the prejudices of her time, left behind a legacy of strength-and unanswered questions.

Determined to honor her roots, Aponi sets out to uncover the truth of Woya's life in the sleepy Cajun town where it all unfolded.

But the past has a way of opening doors to the future. When Aponi meets Wohali Long, grandson of Woya's closest friend, a simple search for history sparks something neither of them expected: connection, understanding, and a love as timeless as the bayou itself.

As Indian Day celebrations fill the air with drums, firelight, and the warmth of shared heritage, Aponi and Wohali discover that sometimes the family you're searching for is waiting in the arms of someone new.
