THE FOURTH SPELLBINDING NOVEL IN THE CAPTIVATING SAGA OF THE CUTLER FAMILY, FOLLOWING DA WN, SECRETS OF THE MORNING AND TWILIGHTS CHILD. Happy and innocent, Dawns daughter Christie has grown up in the safest, most loving of homes. Yet Christie cant help feeling as if a dark cloud hovers over Cutlers Cove — a cloud whose origins lie in her familys troubled history and the many questions no one, not even Dawn, will answer. Only one person can always chase away her blues: Gavin, Daddy Jimmys young and handsome stepbrother. But Christies world is destined to change in one harsh night. Shocked to discover Uncle Philips unbrotherly love for her mother, she is shattered at the way he now looks at her. Desperate and heartbroken she turns to Gavin, who travels with her to The Meadows, the plantation where Christie was born. But The Meadows is blighted by its own dark secrets. As black storms of evil gather around her, Christie must struggle to break the cruel bonds of the past and defy the curse that has haunted Cutlers Cove for generations...--back cover
