Magnolia Bloom

Her marriage was magical. Until it wasn't... With divorce looming, Paige MacInnes isn't sure what to do with herself. She's spent so much time being everything to everyone else that she's pretty sure she's forgotten how to just be Paige, the woman. Maybe she'll be able to find herself again in Magnolia Bloom... With the help of loved ones and lifelong friends (and maybe even a sexy Scotsman), Paige will need to figure out how to preserve the legacy of the MacInnes estate-all while learning the importance of trusting her heart, the power of second chances, and ensuring her own happily ever after. Welcome to Magnolia Bloom, where anything is possible-even an authentic Scottish castle in the magnolia groves of East Texas, brought to life not by a man's desire, but by a woman's determination and defiance.

A year has passed since she was widowed much too young, but she's floundering, so she accepts an invitation to escape her beloved Scotland for a needed respite.

She's equally determined to prove him wrong. She'd loved her husband and loves her peaceful life.

SUNRISE IN MAGNOLIA BLOOM is the third prequel novella in the Magnolia Bloom series. Welcome to Magnolia Bloom, where hearts heal and magic happens... in a castle... in East Texas Dara and Lexi -- two women separated by time – are both drawn into the magical MacInnes family. Both believe true love is out of their reach… but what if they're wrong? 1890 – Dara Doyle will do anything to protect her baby. Sold to a bordello as a young girl, she's escaped that life, and she'll protect her precious Orla with her last breath. When a relative schemes to strip Orla from Dara's very arms, she learns just how fiercely she'll fight. Even if it means as the wife-in name only-of Bruce MacInnes. Even if it means leaving everything she knows to go to America and the tiny Texas town of Magnolia Bloom. Now – Lexi Stewart is a descendant of Alyssa MacInnes, one of the powerhouse women who created the MacInnes legacy. Lexi is lost. A young widow…well, young in her own eyes…Lexi's coming to terms with the fact that true passion was never in her cards-and certainly isn't in her future.

Still, it's a lovely story, one she'd love to live herself, but it's a tale meant only for dreams.
