The Edge of Town by Dorothy Garlock

At 21, Julia Jones is convinced that life is passing her by. Her mother's death four years ago left her in charge of caring for her father and five siblings, and dashed her hopes of meeting that special someone who would whisk her away to the glamorous big city. Then all at once, Julia's predictable existence is over-turned when her father finds love with an attractive widow, and Evan Johnson, the mysterious son of the town drunkard returns home and starts courting her. With his arrival, however, comes a series of devastating tragedies as Evan's father is found murdered, and a series of brutal rapes rocks the town. In a rush to judgement, the townsfolk are all pointing to Evan as the guilty party, except for one person. Amid growing tensions, Julie Jones has been hiding a dark personal secret - and falling desperately in love.

Dorothy Garlock is the author of forty-nine romantic novels, including A Place Named Rainwater and The Edge of Town, which have received national acclaim.
