After Jake, son and grandson of preachers, tried and failed to protect Mamie from small town cruelty, Mamie left town to fend for herself. Neither expected to see each other again. Now, many years later, Jake is a bitter man with little beside regrets, and Mamie, after much struggle and hazard, runs the thriving parlor house in Cowbird Creek. Can they make a future together, or will the shadow of Jake's past overtake them both? Praise for books in the Cowbird Creek series "I felt like I was witnessing how things were, from the dirt, the dust, the hard work and a special something, call it backbone and determination to be more, to be whole with that one special person at your side. . . . A delightful read that requires only the ability to dream along with these two amazing characters!" - Tome Tender "A remarkable historical romance story . . . There is a great chemistry between the characters . . . . It is always a joy to read this author's stories. The storyline and era were written with great care to make sure the details were correct, but also brought lively and grand characters to both the foreground and background." - Amy's Bookshelf Reviews "Brilliantly connects the reader to the characters reliving collective trauma . . . . The friendships in this novel were phenomenal and I loved every single one of them. Wyle is able to create characters who I wanted to befriend. . . . Characters I fought for, cheered for, loved, and in all honesty, cried for and with." -- Honestly Austen
