Some of the gardening shows I watch have said to leave your garden alone in the winter. Leave the spent flowers so the birds can eat the seeds, and don’t rake the leave up because a lot of very good bugs lay their eggs in them or use them for cover during the cold months. I have decide to adopt this way of gardening for nature. Or am I just super lazy? I’m sure I could clean up some of the dead plants and leaves, but I really really don’t want to. I would like to think of myself less as lazy and more pro nature, but I know the truth. I have a few bulbs to plant. If I plant them and still don’t pick up the leaves, then I am pro nature. If I don’t plant them and don’t pick up the leaves I am lazy. The truth is out there.

She’s on the run…

A tyrannical father. A life she hates and doesn’t control. Freedom for socialite Meredith Hanover is not a luxury she has. When given an opportunity to become a modern-day mail-order bride to a rancher in rural Wyoming, she realizes this might be her only opportunity at a fresh start.

He’s determined to stay…

But life on the ranch is hard and isolating, something the previous women of his life couldn’t hack. With no other solution, he strikes a deal with a professional matchmaker for a temporary bride.

The plan is foolproof. A bargain struck. Everyone wins in this ruse of fake love. Yet, if they’re both pretending why does it feel so real?

Is Meredith ready to gamble away the freedom she’s always wanted and give her heart to the family-oriented rancher? Jace knows it’s only a matter of time before Meredith tires of ranching’s hard lifestyle and trades him in for her old-cushy life. Why should he trust his heart to her?

Hester
by Margaret Oliphant
4.1 Stars (139 Reviews)
Genre: Literature & Fiction

FREE for a limited time

Margaret Oliphant is one of the great Victorian novelists and “Hester” is a masterpiece of psychological realism published in 1883.

In exploring the difficulty of understanding human nature, it is also a compulsive story of financial and sexual risk-taking that inevitably results in a searing climax.

“Hester” tells the story of the ageing but powerful Catherine Vernon, and her conflict with the young and determined Hester, whose growing attachment to Edward, Catherine’s favourite, spells disaster for all concerned.

Catherine Vernon, jilted in her youth, has risen to power in a man’s world as head of the family bank. She thinks she sees through everyone and rules over a family of dependants with knowing cynicism. But there are two people in Redborough who resist her. One is Hester, a young relation with a personality as strong as Catherine’s, and as determined to find a role for herself. The other is Edward, who Catherine treats like a son. Conflict between the young and the old is inevitable, and in its depiction of the complex relationships that develop between the three principal characters.
