Women's Fiction
For generations, the Lenore women have manufactured a
fragrance unlike any other. Hidden in the quiet rolling
hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, their perfumery guards
unique and mysterious ingredients. A secret known only to a
select clientele of movie stars, politicians, artists, and
CEOs, the Lenores' signature elixir is the key to success
for the world's most powerful women. Willow, the coolly elegant matriarch, is the brains behind
the operation. Her gorgeous golden-haired daughter, Mya, is
its heart. Like her foremothers, Mya can "read" scents and
envision their power to influence events. But Willow's
younger daughter, dark-haired, soulful Lucia, claims no
magical touch; wanting no part of the family business, she
has left the mountains to make her own way in New York City. When a divorce leaves Lucia at loose ends, she returns to
the Blue Ridge Mountains for an uncomfortable family reunion
and discovers trouble brewing. Willow is experiencing
strange spells of forgetfulness. Mya is romancing a younger
man and plotting to take the reins of the business. A client
is threatening blackmail. And most ominously, the strange,
magical plants that provide the perfume's secret ingredient
seem to be dying. With the Lenore empire at stake, the sister who can save
their lucrative scent stands to inherit when Willow steps
down. Though Mya schemes, Lucia has suddenly begun to show
signs of possessing her own special abilities. And her
return to the mountains—heralded by a swarm of blue
dragonflies—may be the answer they all need. Capturing the essence of sisterhood with the sweetness of
flowers, Season of the Dragonflies is a beguiling tale of
practical magic, old secrets, and new love.
