Cherished Moments - Softcover

Three of the industry's most talented authors, three engaging historical romances, three times the pleasure - and all under one cover! No reader could ask for more than what Cherished Moments, an anthology for Mother's Day, has to offer. We begin in 1815 with Anita Mills' Memories, where we are invited to the quite little cottage of Charlotte Winslow, artist. Though Charolotte's young life was spent attending balls for those born to 'quality', Charlotte's mother and three daughters were left penniless when their father died. Because of this unfortunate turn of events, Charlotte left behind not only that highborn lifestyle, but a man she would never forget, even after fifteen years. When this very man, Lord Rexford is seriously injured in a carriage accident near her cottage, will he remember Charlotte and the feelings they shared before his tragic marriage and old battle scars? In Flowers from the Sea Arnette Lamb takes us to the Scottish Isle of Arran in 1680 to uncover the secret behind a ship's captain who comes to the same spot every year to toss flowers into the water in memory of a departed soul that Lily Hamilton is convinced is buried in a secret grave near her home. When Lily, after watching him return for many years, finally confronts Hugh MacDonnel, it is not only she who has many questions to be answered, but Hugh as well who knows Lily is from his own family's enemy clan but still cannot resist her honesty, innocence and beauty. When Lily finds out who Hugh really is (she knows him only as Hugh), will she still favor him? And who is buried in the grave she has tended all these years? The outcome will satisfy and delight you! Rosanne Bittner tells us the tale of a preacher's wife and daughter who become involved with a Cheyenne warrior in 1875 as the bitter wars between the Indians and the whites rages on. While the soldiers at the nearby fort are determined to put the 'troublesome' warriors in a Florida prison, Maggie Gibbons is just as determined to help her husband breech the gap between the two races by trying to understand their ways and beliefs. But Maggie's secret meetings with Wild Horse soon turn dangerous, both for the risk of capture, and the risk of loosing their hearts in Indian Summer. Never have I read such an enjoyable, heartfelt and memorable anthology as Cherished Moments. You will relax and enjoy the sweet romance, you will be excited and delighted with the adventure of flowers from the Sea, and you will be touched, saddened, enlightened and indeed satisfied with Indian Summer. (Evy Gibbons is a grown woman in Rosanne's 9/94 Zebra release, Full Circle). Released in hardcover in 1994 this memorable collection will be released by SMP in paperback for Mother's Day. Each title expresses the strength and wonder of a mother's love in three unique, unforgettable love stories.The most treasured gift a romance lover could receive on Mother's Day, or any day! A remarkable, memorable, touching experience. Cherished Moments will become a tradition, you'll read it again and again!
