Product Description Phoebe promised her dying Cherokee grandmother that she would hold onto the farm until she could solve this riddle: "Take care of the land and the land will take care of you." Seven years later and now a young widow, Phoebe is in a battle with her sadistic brother-in-law, Jack, to keep possession of her home north of Oklahoma City. Just when she is about to give up, a mysterious Native American martial artist, Alex, offers his assistance. Who is Alex and what is his connection to Jack? Why does Jack fight so hard for land in which he had never before shown an interest? Why does her grandmother's ghost walk the house? Instead of one riddle to solve, Phoebe now has a fistful of them. // REVIEWS: "A hypnotic page-turner with paranormal elements, an incredibly sexy hero, and a villain who personifies modern-day evil." ~ Stacy Colonna, Parchment Symbols // FIVE STARS ~ CoffeeTime Romance // FIVE STARS ~ Escape to Romance // FIVE STARS ~ Midnight Scribe Reviews // FIVE STARS ~ Mystic Visions Reviews

After the death of her husband, Phoebe Henderson's life becomes miserable. She feels she's living a nightmare. Due to the untimely death of her husband and the stipulations of his grandfather's will, she is forced to share her house with her brother-in-law. Jack is a brute; a man who thinks nothing of stooping to sexual harassment or physical abuse to get what he wants. He feels that not only has he inherited the house, but Phoebe also.Phoebe is loathe to leave the house or the land due to a promise she made to her dying grandmother. Until she can figure out what the meaning behind her grandmother's words is, she is determined to stay on the land and somehow find a way to handle Jack. Just when she thinks she can't take it anymore, a chance meeting in a bookstore with a dangerously sexy man, who brushes past her and leaves the pleasant smell of musk and rain, gives her courage and determination to keep her promise. She later comes to know the lethal and enigmatic man, Lin, a Native American martial artist, also known as Alex, who offers to teach her how to take control of her own life and handle things. That he also has a personal more intimate reason for getting to know Phoebe is an added bonus. However, there is more to Alex and his interest in Phoebe - and that reason is tied to a connection with Jack. Terri Branson's e-book, MUSK RAIN, is a blend of wonderfully depicted characters with a traditionally Native American background. The plot was interesting. Branson's knowledge of Native American mysticism and culture was very enlightening. The secondary characters helped carry the story along really well and added genuine depth to the author's style. While Phoebe is very easy to identify and sympathize with, Alex is bound to leave the reader breathless with pulses racing! Branson has shown exceptional talent for storytelling, enmeshing spirituality and suspense so well in a tale about a woman's fight to defy the odds and emerge victorious. The sensuality and sexual tension is practically sizzling and bound to keep the pages turning rapidly! I'd recommend this book to all fans of Ms Branson's. This is one story readers are bound to love!
