The Rock Orchard, set in the 30s and 40s, is about a family of women who have the reputation of using men and moving on and the men who loved them. The legend started with Great Grandmother Musette Belle whose cemetary stone was a life size nude of Musette. Down through the generations the Belle women were rich, wild and owned half of the land around their Tennessee country home. They never flaunted their wealth, in fact the youngest Belle, Angela was usually seen in well worn skimpy clothes and no shoes as she wandered the home town area. The characters are well developed, very likeable and have good humor. Although I would not call the book a page turner, you'll definitely want to know what is going to happen next.
