About Author

Catherine Marshall

Catherine Sarah Wood Marshall LeSourd was an American author of nonfiction, inspirational, and fiction works. She was the wife of well-known minister Peter Marshall. In 1940, Marshall contracted tuberculosis, for which at that time there was no antibiotic treatment. She spent nearly three years recovering from the illness. Her husband died in 1949 of a heart attack, leaving her to care for their 9-year-old son, Peter John Marshall. He later also became a minister and author. Marshall wrote a biography of her husband, A Man Called Peter, published in 1951. It became a nationwide success and was adapted as a film of the same name, released in 1955. Her success encouraged her to keep writing. Marshall wrote or edited more than 30 books, which have sold millions of copies. In 1959, Marshall married Leonard LeSourd, who was the editor of Guideposts Magazine for 28 years. Together they founded a book imprint, Chosen Books. They had three children, Linda, Chester and Jeffery. Marshall died on March 18, 1983 at the age of 68. Source: Wikipedia

Description

They are the women of Primrose Creek, and their strength and passion is a match for the Nevada frontier they call home. Linda Lael Miller masterfully captured the hardships and dangers of a country swept by the winds of war--and the daring and determination, the hopes and dreams of four unforgettable women--in a thrilling new series. An elegant jewel from an English finishing school, Christy McQuarry was bound to turn heads when she and her younger sister, Megan, came to settle in Primrose Creek. Town marshal Zachary Shaw knows that Christy seeks what few men in the rugged town can provide: a secure future and a comfortable home. But he is not immune to Christy's charms. A wild attraction sparks between the lady and the marshal, but Christy--left penniless after her mother's death--cannot afford the distraction of such an unpredictable and reckless passion. Promising her hand to the local lumber baron, lovely Christy stubbornly tries to ignore the lawman who makes her heart pound wildly at every glance. But Zachary Shaw is just as determined--to win her love for a lifetime...
