Dear Reader,   It&;s always wonderful to return to a favorite place. That&;s how I feel about Bittersweet, Oregon, the fictional setting for my 1990s trilogy, Forever Family, now collected here in one volume with a new title&;Envious! I&;m delighted to revisit Bittersweet in the company of Bliss, Katie, and Tiffany&;three women who&;ve just discovered they are half-sisters . . .   Bliss Cawthorne is John Cawthorne&;s only legitimate daughter, but her father&;s wealth has complicated matters. Mason Lafferty believed he wasn&;t good enough for the boss&;s daughter and broke Bliss&;s heart after saving her life. Yet now he&;s back in Bittersweet, determined to make her trust him again.   Tiffany Santini is widowed and struggling to raise two children after a car accident. That doesn&;t mean she needs interference from her powerful brother-in-law. And Katie Kincaid is too busy wrangling her rambunctious son to get involved with the enigmatic cowboy next door. Then there&;s the mystery at the heart of Bittersweet&;the recent disappearance of an elderly local, Isaac Wells, who has vanished without trace, casting a dark cloud over all their lives . . .   Join me in Bittersweet as these three very different, independent women try to escape the shadows of their pasts . . .     Lisa Jackson  Read Less
