Just as with the first volume in this series, Ms. Simone does not disappoint. She continues the story of the Danetree family, following the ways in which life and nature interact deep in the bayous of Louisiana.

I can't wait for the third volume to see what happens next.
I LOVE THIS BOOK !!! The story continues with all good things, drama, suspense, romance, laughter; and even tears, everything that makes for a great tale. I am somewhat waiting patiently the final volume in the series.
