Historical Fiction - A Rancher's Request - A Victorian Southern American Novel by E Ayers

Zadie Larkford, recently graduated from an Eastern women's college, lives a quiet life in her hometown of Franklin, Virginia. Content to spend her days painting by the river and watching her friends marry, she is shocked to learn that her father has promised her hand in marriage to a complete stranger. Ultimately unable to disobey, she leaves her childhood home to travel - unaccompanied - to Creed's Crossing, Wyoming to meet her betrothed. Raised in a seafaring community in North Carolina, Duncan Lorde made the decision to leave his father's prosperous fishing venture to make a life for himself in the west. Determined to succeed in the treacherous and unpredictable pursuit of cattle ranching, he has land, a small cabin, and a herd. All he needs now is a wife-a good woman who will cook, clean, and provide him with strong sons to help on the ranch. When Zadie arrives in Creed's Crossing, the young daughter of his father's old friend is far more independent and strong-willed than he expected. The young would-be-couple has barely begun to forge a bond when the forces of man and nature collide, impeding Duncan and Zadie as they struggle to fulfill. A Rancher's Request

Because that happened to her, E.Ayers is a firm believer in love at first sight, and she believes that everyone should find that special someone. It's magical when it happens. She enjoys writing about that love, and when she isn't spending time with her two dogs or waiting for his royal highness (the cat), she can be found writing. She enjoys selecting just the perfect characters to construct a story as the official matchmaker for all the characters who roam through her mind. She crafts a romantic slice of two characters' lives in a slice-of-life novel.

Most people in today's world have jobs and obligations. Trying to reconcile two separate lives into one can be a great challenge. No one is without flaws. She incorporates this into her writing.

The fantasy of a dashing guy who will sweep the damsel in distress off her feet and whisk her away to a cloud castle is still alive, but the castle is most likely a condo. And a few clean lines aren't going to persuade that damsel in distress.
