Lucy Walsh always felt beholden to her husband Admire even though her heart was in Paragon Springs. Admire had married her when no one else would, and raised Lucy's half-Sioux daughter as his own. But when Admire is killed, Lucy and her daughter Rachel return to Paragon Springs to build a future. There she meets and partners up with Tom Reilly to build an aeroplane plant that will bring good things to the future of Paragon Springs. But can they build on a partnership that extends beyond the business and secures love in their own lives and futures? In the fourth in Brown's series about the women settlers of Paragon Springs, Kansas, Lucy Ann Walsh, against her better judgment, follows her loving husband, Admire, to Oklahoma, where he hopes to start a cattle ranch but where, instead, he's murdered for his claim. Lucy Ann decides to return to Paragon Springs, the town she loves, and she's content tending a small farm until she starts talking to her new neighbor, Tom Reilly. His farm is in shambles, and she decides to give him some advice, but Tom isn't a farmer--he's busy building an airplane better than the Wright brothers'. They spend many hours together, and his passion for this new invention starts to become Lucy Ann's, too. She envisions it as a way to help her town prosper, but her friends think it's a fool's dream. In this vivid and engaging tale, Brown highlights the changes the turn of the century brings to the land and the lives of the settlers. Patty Engelmann Copyright © American Library Association.
