A Family to Cherish
Christy Shannon was no shrinking violet

Her years as a guidance counselor had accustomed Christy to the complexities of family life, and her inherent tenacity demanded that she stick with the problem until she solved it. The problem in this case was Spence Shannon. Specifically, why he'd told his own wife that he was alone in the world when, a year after his death, Christy discovered that Spence's father and brothers lived on the family ranch outside Austin. The complication in this case was Spence's older brother, Jake. Not only did he derail every effort she made to solve the mystery, he also managed to affect her in a way she'd never anticipated.
