This unique story was a page-turner. Allie is a mid-twenties spinster who has dedicated her life to her younger sister, Olivia. The younger Ford sister seems to have tantrums, seizures and a fragile constitution. The sisters were generally known as, "the crazy Ford sisters." The reader soon learns that Allie is a quiet, patient person of strength.
Jeff Hicks has just about hit bottom; not too long ago, she was the sheriff of this small Oregon town. However, he shot a teen in the line of his duty; he's and dropped into the bottom of a liquor bottle and stayed there for a couple of years. Now, he's been caught in a petty theft and his punishment is to work off his sentence as free labor on Allie Ford's farm (which is falling down around her ears).
Other than some repetition, this is a well-written book with some interesting secrets. To explain this rating, I would have to explain the secrets that would ruin the book for a reader. Let me just say that the outcome was a bit too pat.
