The Locke Family Saga - E-book - ePub

A saga from Old New Mexico about secrets, prejudice, and the power of love, this is a story told in three books, each from the perspective of a different family member. In Not Just Any Man, Gerald must survive the Sangre de Cristo mountains, the Mohave Indians, the arid south rim of the Grand Canyon, and the fellow trapper who hates him for the color of his skin before he can return to Taos and the girl he hopes is waiting for him.
Can he prove to himself and to her that he is, after all, not just any man?In Not My Father's House, Suzanna does her unhappy best to adjust to married life in an isolated valley of the Sangre de Cristos, but postpartum depression, the cold, and the lack of sunlight push her to the edge. However, the mountains contain a menace far more dangerous than Suzanna's internal struggles. The man Gerald killed in the Gila wilderness two years ago isn't as dead as everyone thought. And his lust for Suzanna is even stronger than his desire for Gerald's blood.
In No Secret Too Small, 1837 New Mexico is teetering on the verge of revolution when the Locke family experiences an upheaval of its own. Eight-year-old Alma's father, Gerald has never told her mother that his grandmother was a runaway slave. When his father shows up, the truth comes out. Stunned and furious, Suzanna leaves, taking Alma and six-year-old Andrew with her. However, by the time they reach Santa Fe, rebellion has broken out.
Will the Locke family survive the resulting chaos?
