A Time To Keep

When thirtysomething celebrity journalist Gwendolyn Taylor inherits an antebellum manor – Bon Temps – in Louisiana Cajun country, she decides to leave the hustle and bustle of Boston for the picturesque bayou.

Little does she realize the mystery and peril that await her in the small town of Bayou Teche when she begins to investigate an unsolved murder that happened decades before….

Sheriff Shiloh Harper has lived in Bayou Teche all his life, comfortable with its simple, easy lifestyle. So when Boston-born newcomer Gwen Taylor arrives in town, he is surprised to find that he's not only attracted to her, but that she is the only one to stir his passion since his ex-wife. What he doesn't know is that their paths and their passions are destined to cross.
