Imagine opening a long-forgotten trunk to find diaries written by your foremothers. Four generations of thoughts, heartaches, challenges and triumphs. What lessons did they write inside the yellowed pages? What lessons could they gift you now? THE LEGACY OF MAVIS MCCALL - Book Three of the Silver Cross Ranch Legacy It takes a bit of conniving and a few subtle lies, but Mavis finds what she's been searching for when, against her father's wishes, she's accepted to study at the Colorado College of Agriculture. She can't imagine how life could get any better. Halcyon days are filled with knowledge, good friends, acceptance for who she is, and a sweet but secret love. Yet, all too often, secrets have a way of turning to bite back at the hand that fed them. The world shifts on its very foundation when the Great Depression is followed by yet another catastrophic world war. War that destroys hope and shatters dreams. For Mavis, the fight becomes personal. She enlists in the Women's Army Corp and though the Allies eventually win, she comes home defeated and burdened with more heavy secrets that threaten to bring her down for good. Only after returning to her beloved land does she begin to heal. With hard work and keen foresight, she moves the ranch, and herself, into a bold new era. The Silver Cross Ranch Legacy weaves the lessons of history into the lives of four mothers and daughters who fight the odds, and sometimes each other, to defend their way of life. With stubborn tenacity and hard-won faith, the women learn the beauty in their differences, the power of forgiveness, and create hope for the future with the reassurance that each step taken during life's sometimes rugged journey leads to a bright coming home. A Lady Rancher is a rare breed. Born into the world with a legacy deep in her marrow, she has a spirit of survival branded into her soul. A rare gift handed down from one generation to the next.
