At its center is young Lilly Armstrong, a beauty on the brink of womanhood, too brave and too fearless to settle for the status quo. In a booming city animated by inventors, builders and artists, and now excited for the great Centennial Exhibition, Lilly aspires to carve out a life of independent freedom for herself and her women kin - lives not dependent on men. But of course there is a man - a man who admires Lilly, who thinks like she does and who would move heaven and earth to help Lilly realize her dreams. With the guidance of her quietly resilient mother and the unexpected aid of her estranged and powerful grandmother - and despite the foolish meddling of her shallow and ambitious sister - Lilly is determined to lead her family of women into the challenge of the next century on her own terms, forging an empire that will survive for generations. Lilly intends for her family to have it all, not the least of which is enduring love. Fans of VIRGIN RIVER will enjoy this timeless novel of new beginnings, untamable passion and all-redeeming love.
