Then, during the 1960's, young Ursula Powell's father convinces the Tiber family, owners of everything in nearby Tiberville, to commission a huge iron sculpture of a bear for the town. Decades later the strange sculpture - rejected by the townspeople and left to rust on the Powell farm - symbolizes a family's failure and thwarted dreams. But, unknown to Ursula, it is now worth such a huge fortune that the artist's embittered son, Quentin Ricconni, is coming to reclaim it . . . and to change everything Ursula believes about the past, the choices that break a heart, and the redeeming powers of art and love. \u003cbr\u003eCharacters as intriguing as the abstract sculpture. -- Atlanta Journal Constitution \u003cbr\u003eI highly recommend On Bear Mountain . . . a deeply touching tale. -- Romance Reviews Today \u003cbr\u003eA delight. -- Hollywood Behind The Scenes \u003cbr\u003eRich, complex. -- The Romance Reader \u003cbr\u003eBeautifully written . . .
