Summary:
The carpenter's inheritance: In 1893, Lucinda Bell leaves behind her family and finaceĢ to buy a dying law practice in Massachusetts, determined to prove herself in a male dominated profession. Matthew Templin, a local carpenter with a questionable past, is in need of a lawyer but knows hidden truths could destroy Lucinda's ambitions and endanger their lives. When faced with a choice will Lucinda choose career over love? A love so tender: The 1870s lend little assistance to Rex Donnelly as he searches for his son. After six years he locates the boy in a orphanage under the care of the spirited Aimee Riley. She is determined to keep her "son" and refuses to extend the slightest courtesy to the widower. Yet, there is an attraction that sparks between the adults. Could the Lord have plans to draw them together in a love so tender?
