Lily (Leigh Greenwood's Seven Bride's)
Zac Randolph owns and runs the Little Corner of Heaven Saloon on San Francisco's notorious Barbary Coast.  He's a gambler by trade and by nature and he's married to his saloon.  He takes care of the girls who work for him but unlike his brothers, he avoids marriage like the plague.  With his good looks and charm, Zac could have any woman he wants but no woman is as exciting as gambling, no woman means as much to him as his saloon.  Until his distant cousin Lily Sterling shows up on his doorstep.  A fresh faced beauty from the mountains of Virginia, Lily has fled her father and a prospective husband to come to San Francisco.  Zac offered her a place to stay four years ago when they met at a family reunion and Lily is here to take him up on the offer.  She insists she doesn't want him to take care of her, but she needs a place to stay until she can find a job.  Unfortunately, Lily's beauty attracts too many men for her to keep a job for long.  And Zac can't very well let her fend for herself when she seems to get into trouble at every turn.  Lily's innocence and purity attract Zac, but he knows he doesn't deserve her.  Lily sees only the good in Zac and decides that she's been sent to San Francisco to save him from himself. But Zac is determined to get Lily away from the Little Corner of Heaven and out of his system.  But he should know by now that where ever there's a flower woman there's a Randolph who is about to lose his heart.Leigh Greenwood is an amazing storyteller who has entertained and enamored us with the Seven Brides stories!  Lily is a wonderful tale to finish off a remarkable series! Leigh Greenwood's Randolph brothers and their flower women will be missed.   They touched the hearts of many readers and invited us to join their family. Few authors have the talent to sustain a seven book series where every book is unique and better than the one before.  Thankfully, Leigh Greenwood proved to be one of those prolific and brilliant authors! Congratulations to Leigh Greenwood for creating a special and truly memorable series!  If you haven't read these books, you don't know what you've been missing!Kristina Wright  --Copyright © 1994-97 Literary Times, Inc.  All rights reserved--FromLiterary Times
