This Cherished Land
Air heavy with the scent of roses, river whispering of untold adventures, crickets serenading silver moonlight...these were the memories that lured Summer Alden back to Belle Terre.

But the plantation home of her childhood had changed under the hand of its manager. Cullen McAdams. Belle Terre was his lifeblood now, pulsing through his veins as surely as the rain that irrigated the fields. Summer wanted to hate him. He'd stolen her heritage, shattered her dreams. Instead, she fell under the spell of this cherished land, and the man who could turn a plot of Mississippi mud into a field of flowers.
