A dramatic love story set amid the changing world of early twentieth-century Louisiana from the New York Times-bestselling author.

In 1912, Eleanor Upjohn sits with her father near a work camp, overseeing the construction of a levee on the Mississippi. In a region shattered by war, levees mean stability and prosperity. While Eleanor is a modern woman-practical, impatient, and ready for the future—she cannot help but fall for a man still steeped in the ways of the Old South.

Kester Larne is the heir to Ardeith, a sprawling Louisiana plantation whose glory days are long behind it, and he sweeps Eleanor off her feet. Only after they marry does she learn that Ardeith is mortgaged to the hilt and she will need every ounce of her ingenuity to save it . . . and her marriage.

Why oh why must some very nice old books be read by incompetent readers?! ome of my old book friends are finally available as audio books but the readers are second or third rate and that diminishes the story.

Do read this series in order, this book, the third, is far more meaningful if you have read the preceding two books.

Good story, terrible reader

I love all three of the Plantation Trilogy books. They have been my favorites since high school, fifty years ago

Great reading!
