Still the Mighty Waters — Janice Young Brooks

SHE WAS DRIVEN BY A DREAM AS TURBULENT AS THE RAGING RIVER...

Passionate, raven-haired Honore LeGarde never imagined that the great Mississippi would carry her into a new life fraught with danger, rich with promise...that it would sweep her into the arms of a man she would love beyond life itself, then force her to marry another...that her fiery spirit would spark the dream from which a mighty empire would grow.

For, as the steamboat became queen and ruled the majestic river, Honore's power would rise on the swift tidal currents. She was a woman destined to endure, to succeed, to find happiness at last, to bequeath to her own beautiful daughter the priceless gifts of courage, strength and undying love.
