  She wasn’t sad. Sad was the wrong word.  Sadness did not capture the pain when a whole life had collapsed. Not sad. But broken, dazed and utterly forsaken even for misery. Home again after five years, in her quiet ancestral home in wartime England, Mona’s past comes back to her in poignant, agonizing memories, memories of an ecstatic, clandestine love affair. Despite her unhappiness, Mona affects everyone with whom she comes into contact. The parson, the doctor, the landgirl and Michael the local Squire, are all changed as if ignited by a living flame.
   
  How a woman from the past threatens to destroy Mona’s healing heart and expose the secret she thought was buried forever, and how through physical suffering she has a final chance of real happiness, are all told in this passionate and dramatic story by Barbara Cartland.

  Though she hopes for a quiet, uncomplicated life for herself, Dorothy Clark wants nothing more than to stir others up. Specifically, she dreams of writing something that will challenge people as much as Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin seems to have. But in 1850s Mesquite Springs, there are few opportunities for writers--until newspaperman Brandon Holloway arrives, that is. 
   
  Brandon Holloway has seen the disastrous effects of challenging others and has no intention of repeating that mistake. Instead of following his dreams, he's committed to making a new--and completely uncontroversial--start in the Hill Country. 
   
  As Dorothy's involvement in the fledgling newspaper grows from convenient to essential, the same change seems to be happening in Brandon's heart. But before romance can bloom, Dorothy and Brandon must work together to discover who's determined to divide the town and destroy Brandon's livelihood. 
   
  With this second novel in the Mesquite Springs series, bestselling author Amanda Cabot invites you to discover the healing power of truth.
