Long before
emigrating to America to settle the town of Larkin, Maine, John Larkin falls for
the hauntingly beautiful Maeve O'Quinn in his native Ireland. Although frail,
she returns the love of the future Larkin patriarch in full measure as she
envisions a rosy life with him, little knowing that fate has other plans for
them.
The Collective Obsessions Saga begins with the prequel,
Hearts in Sorrow.
Years before emigrating to America to settle the town of Larkin, Maine in 1866,
John Larkin falls for the flame-haired and green-eyed Maeve O'Quinn in his
native Ireland. Although frail, she returns the future Larkin patriarch's love
in full measure as she envisions a rosy life with him. Yet their love is not
meant to be as fate cruelly intervenes to deny them.
After an unimaginable tragedy, John is left numb with grief but forges ahead to
establish his own family. He settles for Anne O'Quinn, Maeve's older sister, who
holds no candle to Maeve's beauty. Anne is tall and awkwardly big-boned, with
golden brown hair, a long narrow face and dark coal eyes. She quickly agrees to
marry John, secretly in love with the dashing man who had been meant for her
sister.
Anne wonders if their marriage will be enough to hold John's interest,
especially after they emigrate to America.
Or will he forsake her for another?
