San Antone

Forced to leave the genteel and pampered world of her South Carolina plantation to migrate to the raw new state of Texas, Joanna Harte surmounts countless obstacles to create a powerful dynasty in the land she loves more than anything else. There Joanna dares to gain the power and prestige so long denied her in a man's world by building an unrivaled cattle empire near San Antonio. But her own family proves to be her biggest challenge, as their bitter jealousies and deadly passions explode in a fight for her ranch, threatening to tear apart her legacy. Publishers Weekly says: «…An exuberant cast makes this diverting chronicle sparkle. The author uses the master's touch in storytelling.» The Nashville Banner says: «Real and human in every situation, [and] big in scope.» A magnificent nineteenth-century historical saga of how the West was won!
