Secret TidesSimon and Schuster, 15 de juny 2010 - 378 pàgines Set against the backdrop of the Old South on the eve of the Civil War, Secret Tides is a saga of passion, greed, romance, and faith that you will not soon forget. Trouble is brewing on the plantation. When the overseer's daughter, Camellia York, accidentally causes the death of the plantation's owner—who is also the father of the man she plans to marry, Trenton Tessier—life as she knows it will never be the same. As Trenton begins to pull away from her, Camellia seeks solace from Josh Cain, an older relative with a quiet, but unshakable, faith. But when Cain's own wife dies tragically, the stage is set for Camellia to discover the truth about her family's past—and her own destiny. |
