Mosquito County (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781478737643)

Adventure, romance, and intrigue await in Mosquito County. Emma's father hasn't been the same since his wife's death, but when he rouses Emma in the middle of the night, her bags already packed, she knows something is desperately wrong. Trying to protect her from an unknown evil, Richard Kingston hustles his eighteen-year-old daughter off to the backwoods wilderness of the Florida peninsula to live with her grandfather, Russell Duvane. Mosquito County becomes the backdrop for Emma's thirst for adventure as she explores its pristine wilderness, embraces its mythical intrigue, and becomes enthralled with her grandfather's citrus and cattle empire. Amid the splendor of this turn-of-the-century tropical paradise, Emma encounters mystery surrounding Seminole Indian legends, danger from an unknown and evil source, and romance when she meets a young rancher who captures her heart. Kip Morgan is unlike any young man Emma encountered in her former Bostonian life, and she soon finds his alluring smile as intoxicating as the abundant tropical flowers of Mosquito County. Set in the late 1800s, "Mosquito County" is a hauntingly beautiful debut novel, richly layered with family secrets, mystery, passion, and revenge.
