We're deep in loggers' country where men work physically demanding and dangerous jobs.

No one seems too bothered, not even the local sheriff. He's faced with an awkward and at the same time delicate situation and deals with it - with violence. But everyone (even his new wife) calls him simply Pemberton. The reader is introduced to one of the two main characters straight away. Strong-willed, charismatic Serena meets her match in husband Pemberton and their married life seems idyllic - apart from one very important detail. Summary: Centred in the North Carolina mountains this book is really one big, love story.
