A unique and 'engaging' romance!
In Left at the
Altar, author Margaret Brownley pens a timeless tale of love and forgiveness
in the Wild West town of Two-Time Texas where love ran deep and so did
disagreements. Set during an era in history before many towns in the West had standardized
time-keeping—guaranteed chaos, missed trains, and worse. So be prepared to lose
all track of time reading this wonderfully intriguing, fascinating, and
engaging romance!
The people of Two-Time, Texas, are fed up with running on
different times thanks to a long-running feud between the town’s two stubborn jewelers who each insist on having
the correct time. The wedding of their children Tommy Farrell and Meg
Lockwood is supposed to bring an end to this division, bringing one time to
Two-Time. However, when Tommy stands up Meg at the church, Meg’s father is
furious and has a hefty breach-of-promise lawsuit served to Tommy, further
dividing the town.
Grant Garrison, a lawyer from Boston, reluctantly decides
to stay a while in this cantankerous town to honor his recently deceased sister who loved the place. The first
two times Grant meets the jilted bride were under rather embarrassing
situations for the poor gal, but something about Meg captivates him. When Grant is hired to defend the groom from the lawsuit and the case comes
before the court, he has to remind himself who he is representing when his
feelings for the feisty but forlorn Meg grows. What will be the outcome of the
case? Can this town ever find peace and
if so, will the cost be worth it? Will Grant and Meg remain lonely or will ‘everything
be made beautiful in its time’?
