Synopsis

Lexy Culhane follows in stunned silence as her father bundles her younger brothers onto the train in a midnight flight away from the only life they have ever known. It seems impossible to her that her gentle, loving mother could have shot a man.

Despite the shock, Lexy soon grows to love her new home at Wild Swan, the grand horse farm in Maryland run by her formidable grandmother, Alexandria Falconer. It is from Alex that Lexy has inherited her fiery and rebellious spirit, and which eventually leads her headlong into a career as a crusading reporter.

When Lexy meets enigmatic fellow reporter Hawk MacKenna, she feels she has finally found her soulmate. But Hawk's life is shadowed by a mistake from his youth, and still haunted by her mother's actions, Lexy struggles to trust him. When her relentless curiosity about his hidden past comes between them, Hawk leaves for the battlefields in the West and Lexy accepts an invitation from distant relations in England. But when she is offered a chance to stay, she faces a test—can she choose between building a new life in this foreign land, or returning to face the pain, and the love, that she left behind?

Contains mature themes.

I have enjoyed all the books in this epic Wild Swan trilogy and family saga. This was the perfect end of the series. My heart is quenching, swooning and everything else in between.

I loved this series! These stories were such a good mix of historical and romantic fiction. I actually wish these were non-fiction because I would love to have met this family and go to Wild Swan! Even though the ending with Lexy and Hawk was appropriate to finish up with, I would be curious to read......more
