Publisher's Synopsis
When a friendship implodes, can a fragile young woman with the gift of insight heal the rift?
1880s Arizona Territory. Daniel Donovan wants two things: to get married and to restore his friendship with Alec Twelve Trees.
Alec is raging about his mother's murderer, whose identity Daniel knows but will not reveal, as the killer is dead and all proof died with him. Alec can't recognize any needs but his own, so the conflict deepens every day.
Daniel's fiancée is a delicate girl-her health frail, her future uncertain. Prone to vicious headaches that can rock her to her knees, Annie accepted Daniel's ring but hesitates to name a wedding date, as a possible pregnancy might exacerbate her physical problems.
Annie inherited the gift of insight from her Welsh mother and digs into the past, searching for a way to help the men heal their relationship. She quickly realizes that Daniel is protecting the killer's surviving family-part of the Donovan inner circle.
Though she may be fragile, Annie is fierce in spirit, but when she discovers the secret behind the murder, it's more horrifying than anything she could have imagined. If the truth gets out, it may shatter their world. Then a new enemy shows his face.
"There is enough swoon-worthy, though tender, romance to melt even the coldest of hearts, and there is plenty of action and adventure for those who enjoy novels that keep them on the edge of their seat." -Whispering Bookworm
Book 2 of the Donovan Family Saga, an adult Historical Romance, shares characters with the other books in the series, but can be read as a stand-alone. Fans of Cheryl St. John, and Caroline Fyffe are sure to love THE WOODSMAN'S ROSE.
Can Annie keep the secret Daniel's trying to hide? Will her small strength and skill be enough to bring the friends together again? Or will the knowledge she's discovered bring disaster?
