Individual stories of four sisters rebuilding their life
after the US Civil war on land that is an inheritance from
their grandfather in Primrose Creek, Nevada. Also the
later discovered secrets in the family Bible will either
bring these women together or tear them apart. Widowed, Bridget, her toddler son and her 16-year-old
sister, Skye leave their home and start a new life. Her
childhood friend and nemesis Trace arrives to fulfill his
promise to her deceased husband and claim the woman he has
loved as long as he can remember. If only he can convince
her. Christy and her 16 year old sister, Megan were in England
with their mother and now after her death return to find
the only thing left for them is an inheritance from their
grandfather. The enmity between Christy and Bridget must
be put aside as they work together to build a new life in
this wild country. Christy intends to marry for money as
she is convinced love is a fable and security is more
important. Marshal Zachary Shaw has his own
responsibilities but finds himself drawn to this stubborn
woman who is engaged to his best friend. Skye has been in love with Jake Vigil since she first saw
him. She was not upset that the engagement between him and
Christy was broken. Now that she is marrying age, she has
set her sites on winning her man. Jake has already been
burned by one McQuarry woman and has no intention of
getting mixed up with another even if he does need the
lumber on her land to stay in business. Soon he sees that
Skye is more than a stubborn child, but can he be sure it
is love? Megan has dreams that do not involve staying in Primrose
Creek. Unfortunately, her dreams have turned to dust and
she returns to her family. The townspeople are aware of
the scandal - she was an actress - but her family holds
nothing but love for her. Although everyone seems to be
throwing them together, Megan has no intention of falling
for Webb Stratton, the man who now owns what was her part
of the land inherited from her grandfather. Webb has past
pains that hold his heart. He cannot give Megan the love
she deserves, but cannot resist giving her what he can.
When their past invades the present, they must learn to
trust in this fragile love and each other. BRIDGET, CHRISTY, SKYE and MEGAN were all released as
single stories during 2000 and now are available in a
single paperback Omnibus. After meeting the four sisters and the townspeople in
Primrose Creek of the past, you will want to return to
Primrose Creek. LLM's newest book THE LAST CHANCE CAFÉ is
a romantic suspense set in current day Primrose Creek where
the women are still as strong and independent as their
ancestors.
