description: In the continuing saga of the Knollwood family, Laurel Grove explores the next generation-as WWI ends and the Roaring Twenties begin. Revenge and obsession dominate when an unexpected villain returns to the small Southern town.Sometime during the night it began to sleet. Quin woke, blinked into the dark, unfamiliar surroundings and heard the ice pellets ping against the window. For a moment, she held her breath, trying to think where in the world she was. Then, she remembered. Boston. Quin sighed smugly, thinking how drastically her life had changed in such a short time. A bright future lay ahead for her and Jake, and she was determined to make the most of it.I won't be like Georgette, she thought. I'm strong.She frowned. Strong? Brave? Brave enough, she wondered, to contact her family and face their reaction to her recent escapades? She dreaded hearing their response, but knew she couldn't put off the inevitable.Soon, she thought, I'll telephone Mama and Papa. I'll make them understand how happy I am, how wonderful Jake is to me. They'll come to like and respect him, and everything will be fine.Snuggling deeper under the covers, Quin smiled contently, thinking how lucky she was to have married Jake.
