Love, Honor, Money...and the Laws we break to keep all three. In this second collection, the story of the low lifes, high times, and romances of the Riverwood Lodge and Casino continue. Secrets have been revealed and change Joe Santone's and Helen Decker's relationship forever. And more change is to come when Joe's old life shows up with new opportunities he can't pass up. Helen believes in a life she has thus far been unable to have. Will she be able to accept the world as it is in Riverwood or will she leave her beloved trees and the people they shelter? Shaw McLendon has made a life for himself in California, but it is nothing that he imagined. And the discomfort and longing that had him leaving his Scottish homeland is back. Mei Xing Chen listened to the whispers of the land of her birth, but now they are growing fainter. She's found love, but can it survive in the harsh light of racism? They all flock to where illegal booze flows freely and the parties are legendary- to the World Famous Riverwood Lodge and Casino- where the Pacific Ocean meets the Redwoods, gangsters meet immigrants, loggers meet movie stars-and the lines between right and wrong are obscured by the trees. This collection includes the remaining five episodes from the exciting e-serial: A Rare Snow, Soaring Lows, Rush, Weary Nobles and Light for the Long Night.
