Yesterday's Roses

de Lynda Trent

JESSAMINE Daughter of the Delacroix dynasty, she was torn between hatred for the Yankees who stole their land, and hunger for Ransome McKinley, the handsome Northerner who stole her heart. DOLL Every barrier of race and rank separated her from aristocratic Jeremy Delacroix but nothing could stop them from defying the odds and violating the taboos to find love together. CADENCE She was heiress to the shames and sins of the past, as she struggled to break free to build a future with the Delacroix heir she was forbidden to wed but could not resist. Here, set in the lush post Civil War Southland is a sweeping saga filled with tragedy and triumph, pain and passion, as three unforgettable women follow their desires - and find their destinies.
