A CONTRACT, A CAR AND A KISS! The opening chapter begins with these words and establishes the groundwork for this book, Love at the Dismal River. The contract is a teaching contract issued to a single school teacher from Connecticut. In the Fruit of the Spirit series, the author has waited until the fifth book to bring forth 'Love' in the title. Tylor has had some near misses in the previous in the sea of matrimony. Perhaps Miss Emilee Taven, with her bright red hair, is the one to bring love into his life. Of course, the car happens to be the one that Tylor bought in Kramer, Oklahoma. You know the one; the red car with the blue doors and the white hood. The tangible items were of no concern to Laura, Tylor's mother. It was the intangible item, the 'innocent kiss' that brought doubts to Laura Taggat. She did not want her son to suffer hurt at the hands of a whimsical charming lady. Emilee Taven was much too vibrant and beautiful to be teaching in a rural school in the Sandhills of Nebraska. What secret is she hiding? The finality of the last will and testament is the one tangible contract where fortunes are gained or lost. It is where the deceased have had their final say, and it is rarely overturned. And so it in this book, where secrets are revealed, and the deceased can make their final claim to revenge. But still, the is 'love, love at the Dismal River.'
