Longing for adventure, Priscilla Morton leaves Boston and heads for Texas, never dreaming that the adventure she seeks will leave her badly injured and her parents dead. Priscilla is determined to rebuild her life and make a home for herself in the beautiful Hill Country. But the bandits who took her parents’ lives also destroyed her hope for the future.

Ranch foreman Zachary Webster knows what the future holds for him, and it’s not a woman like Priscilla. She deserves a cultured East Coast gentleman, not a cowboy who’s haunted by memories of his mistakes. The best thing he can do is leave her alone.

When necessity draws them together, Priscilla and Zach begin to forge a life that, like the scattered petals of her childhood, is filled with promise. But then the past intrudes, threatening their very existence.

Book 2 of the Texas Dreams series, Scattered Petals weaves a tale of drama, love, and second chances as beautiful as the Hill Country itself.

“Amanda Cabot tugs hard at the heartstrings in Scattered Petals, the deeply emotional story of a resilient woman who faces unimaginable tragedy and a selfless man who gives all to see her spirit restored. I highly recommend this poignant novel.”
~ Vickie McDonough, award-winning author, Texas Boardinghouse Brides series.

Priscilla Morton longed for adventure. When she convinces her parents to make a long cross country journey from Boston to Texas to attend a wedding, the trip quickly turns into a unspeakable tragedy when their stagecoach is attacked.

While at her brother-in-laws home, Priscilla discovers that the horrendous act of rape has left her pregnant with an outlaw’s child. When ranch foreman, and selfless man, Zach Webster steps forward offering to marry her, she is amazed, confused,  and scared, but knowing that Zach only is marrying her in name only, helps Priscilla make the hardest decision of her life.

A heartfelt read filled with the amazing power of forgiveness.
