In Book 1 of The Tompkins Family Series, Molly Hannity comes to the Montana Frontier to marry Rex Tompkins. Lightning Ridge, Montana! Molly shivers at the name, and when she finally arrives, the place fulfills all her hopes and fears about her new home. The Tompkins family she marries into matches the name, too, with a staggering collection of personalities as strong-willed and tempestuous as the land itself. Molly’s husband Rex, eldest son of the old patriarch, Marcus Tompkins, wants the world to know he’s the heir apparent of the Lightning Ridge Ranch. He wants his word to be law, which doesn’t sit very well with his twin brother, Reese.
To make matters worse, Reese gets a mail-order bride at the same time Rex does. Molly hits it off right away with Miriam Olsen, Reese’s gentle but determined bride. Unlike the twin brothers, Molly and Miriam decide to help and support each other. Even when the brothers declare war on each other, Molly and Miriam use their husbands’ love for their wives to undermine their hostility. They bring peace to Lightning Ridge when nothing else can.
But the biggest challenge lies in the family’s young daughter, the wild and willful Mona. Molly and Miriam can’t get anywhere close to her, and she won’t be reconciled to her brothers’ new wives for anything. Can Molly find a way to bring all these wayward souls together? Can she build a loving and comforting home for herself in a place as stormy as Lightning Ridge?
