Legacy of the Lake by Judith Hartsock

Clary and Barbara loved the lake. It was their home, their sanctuary; a safe haven from the world. Now, with Barbara gone, Clary finds herself alone, hurt and confronting greater challenges than she ever could have imagined. Taking strength in her memories and a passage in Corinthians- 'Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast. It always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres'-Clary finds the strength to carry on in the face of violence and threats. Will her strength be enough to withstand the pressure to develop her land; her only legacy? Who can she turn to? Who can she trust? Can Clary honor Barbara's memory and find love again?
