The romance of a bygone era infuses "Peas, Beans & Corn" (Book 2 in The Sovereign Series) when Maine Army Guardsman Bruce Gilpin, 35, returns to the rural farming community of Sovereign, Maine, hoping to restart the town's old sweet corn canning factory. He's encouraged in his dream by the passionate young organic foodie Amber Johnson, 21, who reawakens his youthful heart. The course of their true love becomes muddied by their well-meaning mothers, however, and by the arrival of Bruce's ex-wife Sheila and the handsome corporate attorney Ryan MacDonald, who hits town to rusticate.

History pervades this little tale of hummingbird moths and morning mists, horse-drawn sleighs and corn desilkers, and a surprising connection to the poet Emily Dickinson, who could have been describing Sovereign when she wrote: "I went to Heaven -- 'Twas a small town."

"Peas, Beans & Corn" is the second in the four-novel series, The Sovereign Series, by Maine farmer, author and itinerant Quaker minister Jennifer Wixson. The book is set for release June 29, 2013. For more information on The Sovereign Series visit http://www.thesovereignseries.com/
