Troubled Times for Tilly

Life on the river has never been easy for Tilly and Sam, but they've built a home filled with love. Joey, Tilly's eldest son, has straddled two worlds - cherished as her child but granted privileges, denied to her other children, through his wealthy birth father's family. It's a fine balance that has always held . . . until an incident at a glittering Celebration Ball shatters the fragile harmony. Tilly fears the consequences, especially when her headstrong daughter Martha is involved. How will Martha cope when she meets Joey's entitled friends and their easy lives? Disaster strikes Sam's business, shaking the family's foundation. Tilly faces her worst nightmare when Joey's powerful relatives move to reclaim him. As old wounds reopen and new temptations arise, will love and loyalty be enough to hold the family together - or will the lure of wealth and comfort tear them apart?
