As a legacy of hatred erupts in a shattering moment of violence, a dying mother entrusts her newborn daughter to a caring stranger.... Now, twenty-five years later, Katherine Fane has come home to Camarune, Kentucky, to bury the woman who raised her, bringing a blood feud to its searing conclusion. At the cabin in the woods where she was born, Katherine is drawn to the ravaged town and its violent past. But her arrival has not gone unnoticed. A stranger is watching from the woods, a shattered old man is witnessing the impossible, and Sheriff Luke DePriest's only thoughts are to keep Katherine safe from the sleeping past she has unwittingly awoken....
This was my first Dinah McCall book, but it sure won't be my last. I loved the book, was unable to put it down. I thought the story was great and the romance was totally uplifting. There were parts of tears in the beginning, but the outline of the story made it all worth while. A five star for sure, and I'm going to buy more Dinah McCall books right away, they would have to be good to beat this one.
I cannot believe this book received such bad reviews.

I thought this book was very good. In fact, it was so good, that I went out and bought other Dinah McCall books. I also love her writings as Sharon Sala. Believe me, if you buy this book, you WON'T be sorry. It is excellent.

I so loved this book! I come from a small gossipy town so I could really relate to how things such as this can affect people and hurt them. My daughter read this book right after me and said now any book she picks up isn't as good. I can't wait to read another by this author!

Years ago a girl and a boy from feuding families fall in love. Tragically they are not to be together. The girl gave birth to a baby girl and with her dying breath handed the baby to a "witch" to love and raise as her own. Twenty some odd years later the girl returns to bury her grandma, whom the town claims to be a witch. the girl Catherine takes the town by storm and has a town wake up and face their bigotry and ignorance. A beautiful story.
