There, she meets the handsome Charley Barkley, the owner and a married father of ten. Despite the fact that they have virtually nothing in common--and thirty years between them--a spark ignites. <p/>For Charley, once their passionate love affair intensifies, there is no going back to his loveless marriage--especially after Sila is with child. They marry and his logging empire expands, as does their family. Though they face tragedy and treachery along the way, they thrive until, just when their lives seems perfect, Charley falls victim to cancer.

There she meets Charley, the owner. Sila's spiritual tale of newfound tenderness is both romantic and moving--written by a sure pen that gives us a wealth of details, not only about the forest where Sila gathers her medicinal plants but also about the logging boom in the Missouri Ozarks. Murray enlivens this long-ago world and creates a book of historical fiction that reverberates with the reader. Bravo!"<br>--Linda Gray Sexton, author of <i>Searching For Mercy Street: My Journey Back to My Mother, Anne Sexton</i> and <i>Half In Love: Surviving the Legacy of Suicide</i> <p/>"<i>Wolf Den Hollow</i> is a fantastic read that has it all: romance, intrigue, history, current themes of racism and intolerance--and a life-changing, life-affirming love. That it's based on the author's family makes it even more powerful. And this is no dry historical novel; <em>Wolf Den Hollow</em> is sexy--even steamy. So pour yourself a glass of wine, curl up by the fire, and get ready for a fast, exciting, and unforgettable story. I promise it will keep you up at night!"<br>--Jane Ganahl, cofounder of Litquake Literary Festival and author of <i>Naked on the Page</i> <p/><br>
