Lily and the Major

By Linda Lael Miller

Book Overview

The first novel in the romantic Orphan Train trilogy is a beloved historical classic about a woman who must choose between her family and her one true love--by #1 New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller.

In his arms, she discovered how tender--and how bold--true passion could be...

Lily Chalmers wanted only two things from life--a farm of her own, and to find the sisters she hadn't seen since they were all little girls heading West on the orphan train. She certainly had no desire for a husband. Yet proud, innocent Lily had no idea what desire meant until she met Major Caleb Halliday, a man who could ignite her very being with a single touch...a glance...a whisper. Sheltered in his arms, Lily rode the crest of a wild, helpless passion. And though she struggled against her own willful heart, she knew she could never choose between the dazzling man who had claimed her love so completely, and her bold, long-cherished dream...

Interesting.....like it.....love it.

I just feel in love with the characters in this book. It's a great book, once you open it and begin to read it, you can't put it down. I know you will love this book and you'll enjoy the characters in there also.....enjoy.

Good book!

This is first book of the orphan train series, it made me want to read the 2 other books so as to know what is the ending. I recently bought Caroline and the raider but I haven't had time to read it yet, I hope that it will be as good as the first book!

WOW!

This a great book! It was non-stop action and a real page turner. They were hot for each other right from the beginning. Lily was very defiant and fighting the feelings she had for Caleb and he was at times more than exasperated with her. I cannot count the number of times he threatened to spank her, but they truly loved each other. This book has everything...great sex, humor and undying love. I highly recommend this along with the other two in the Orphan trilogy...Emma and the Outlaw and Caroline and the Raider! All three are keepers!

This is one hot book!

This story has everything. A hero and heroine that you can easily fall in love with. They're well suited. For a change she isn't helpless waiting for rescue and he isn't brooding waiting for someone to see his softer side. There is romance and humor and the love scenes are too hot!!

My favorite by Linda Lael Miller
