"Three sisters arrived in Sparrow, Oregon, in 1822 aboard a fur trading ship named the Lady Astor, which sank later that year in the harbor just beyond the cape. They were among the first to settle in the newly founded coastal town, and they strode onto the new land like thin-legged birds with wavy caramel hair and pastel skin. They were beautiful—too beautiful, the townspeople would later say. Marguerite, Aurora, and Hazel fell in love often and typically with the wrong men—those whose hearts already belonged to someone else. They were coquettes, temptresses, and men found them impossible to resist." -The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw

That doesn't mean that the ladies are to blame! Sometimes the heart is unreasonable, and the guys shouldn't known better then to cheat on their ladies! But very interesting opening, and I need to read more! What about you guys? Happy reading!
