Uncommon Lands is an emotionally gripping story of how quickly a life can turn dangerously wrong.Mary Beth Ivy owns and manages a truck farm in south Louisiana...just south of Opelousas. Bayou country; lush, green sugar cane fields. crawfish and rice farms, alligators, and beautiful coastal sunsets.
Five years after losing her husband, Jack, in a tragic accident, she is finally happy and content with her life...until west Texas rancher, Yancy McCone, traveling through south Louisiana, breaks down on I-10 and needs a place to board his thoroughbred horses overnight. The Ivy barn is perfect.
Not only is he attracted to the widow, Mrs. Ivy, but he needs her farm to rescue his almost bankrupt ranch.
He convinces her to visit his west Texas ranch. Within days she realizes her infatuation has led her to make a huge mistake. If the dry, dead land wasn't depressing enough, Yancy McCone shows his true character and he isn't a man she can love. She wants to go home to her farm ...and to Luther.
Yancy doesn't handle rejection well, especially being dumped for an illegal farmhand, and he is determined to have her or ruin her.
