The Kilgarthen Sagas
2 primary works
Book 1
Laura has one last job to carry out as the wife of Bill Jennings – to return his body to his childhood home of Kilgarthen. She is determined not to stay long: despite being Kilgarthen’s golden boy Bill was actually a devious trickster who only married Laura to take over her father’s construction business upon his death.
As she prepares to leave the town, Laura is given the devastating news that Bill had squandered everything, and the only money Laura has left is tied up in his cottage in Kilgarthen. Forced to stay in the village, Laura is soon drawn into the lives of the locals and five-year-old Vicki Jeffries captures her heart. But Vicki’s father wants Laura as far away from his daughter as possible, and Laura is determined to find out why.
A charming saga of Cornish village life from the author of the Pengarron series, perfect for fans of Katie Flynn and Anna Jacobs.
Book 2
Laura Jennings, a young widow, has tried to accept that motherhood is not an option for her in her present situation. Her maternal feelings are usually satisfied by her arrangement with Spencer Jeffries, the owner of Rosemerryn farm, to look after his adorable six-year-old daughter, Vicki. The villagers of Kilgarthen are convinced that it is only a matter of time before Spencer and Laura marry, and sure enough, Laura and Spencer soon fulfil their expectations.
But the couple do not have a smooth start as newlyweds. Are they trapped in a loveless marriage or just too stubborn to acknowledge their true feelings for each other?
An involving and entertaining sequel to Kilgarthen from the masterful Gloria Cook, perfect for fans of Katie Flynn and Anna Jacobs.
