Virginia Embrace

There was perhaps no place in history more filled with romance and beauty than the old South in the days before the Civil War. Now, journey down Magnolia Road and visit the most majestic plantations of that gracious era...

Swan's Watch
In the southeast corner of Virginia, on the banks of the Pagan River where the white swans drift through the day, sits the majestic plantation, Swan's Watch. Its impressive Georgian mansion, lush green lawns, and sweeping fields of corn and peanut crops are all that Lacy Flemming has ever known, and all that she has ever wanted...

Lacy

Of the three Flemming siblings, only Lacy felt a true bond with the demanding, yet bounteous land that had been in her family for five generations. Then Jared Steele, a tall raven-haired Northerner, sailed into her life, set on gaining both a shipping contract for the plantation's crops and Lacy's hand in marriage. His strong embrace and the sweet fire of his kisses were temptations that Lacy could not resist. But though she would give Jared her heart, though she would share his passion through the burning heat of southern nights, she would not desert Swan's Watch for him...even if that meant saying farewell to love forever!
