They are nearing their middle years and uneasy with what the future might hold. When Anthony's crusty father threatens to disinherit him, Rosemary steps into the middle of a land feud and family eccentricities to prevent disaster. Only an Irish heroine as strong and down-to-earth as Rosemary could hope to secure the land, and her love.
