The Virginia Southern Point Collection: Special Edition Boxed Set

Settle in, and make your escape with Volumes I-III of Jennifer Olmstead's Virginia Southern Point Collection, featuring three contemporary stories as unique as their setting in the beautiful southernmost region of Virginia, where the pastoral farms of Back Bay meet the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean. Discover why the simple life is anything but simple. It's fiction you wish was reality.

MEN AMONG SIRENS
Be careful how hard you shake the family tree.
Ruby Bohan's upcoming marriage to her childhood sweetheart has all the makings of a fairytale, but a fated discovery just days before the wedding threatens to leave no one in her family unscathed--including her doting adoptive uncle. Ruby's mother, Ainsley, has only hours to tell Ruby the real story of their lives, beginning 24 years earlier with her own troubled marriage and a chance encounter destined to follow her for the rest of her life. Once Ainsley's painful revelation is complete, Ruby must decide if she can go through with her wedding, forgive her mother, and preserve her disabled father's life-altering belief that their family tree really is as it seems. The power and burden of knowledge has passed from mother to daughter, and now her family's future rests in Ruby's youthful hands. Will she use what she's learned to hold her family together, or tear it apart? MEN AMONG SIRENS carries the reader on a 20-year journey from the Navy hub of Virginia's southern coast to the formidable, rustically beautiful wilderness of Michigan's upper peninsula, whose people and lifestyle remain a step removed from the high-tech, breakneck-paced lives most of us lead.

THE STRAY
Can a near-fatal cycling accident save Dare Jordan from himself?
The Stray takes readers into the heart of Dare Jordan's grudging journey of self-discovery and transformation, from the depths of grief and loss to embracing the love of a trio of people he could only have met by accident.
