Prologue: |
|||
"In 1947 the world was slowly recovering from the devastations of World War Two. My brothers and I had returned home safely, but my mother who had been our strength, became ill and was forced to move to Arizona to recuperate. My sister Erin, who had had more than her share of misery in matters of the heart, fell deeply in love with a young man who had become Ben's partner in the lumber business. But the path of true love is strewn with pitfalls, even on Waltons Mountain." |
|||
Synopsis: |
|||
As the family prepares for Erin's marriage to Paul Northridge, Ashley Longworth Jr. returns and complicates Erin's decision. | |||
Epilogue: |
|||
"My sister Erin's wedding is as clear in my memory as it is in my mother's, although neither of us were there. And that fact has caused me to marvel many times at the power of the human heart over mere time and space. There was a special bond of love in our family which brought us to that small church to witness the beginning of a marriage that's as strong today as it was then." | |||
