About the Book

Behind closed doors of the Mississippi Delta, lies a tangled web of seduction, secrets, sin, and shame. Inspired by actual events, Rhoades to Bridges is an explosive saga which defies the confines of genre. From Steel Magnolias to Ghosts of Mississippi, there have been a great many stories told about the South: her majesty as well as her malevolence. The series begins as Melanie Bridges wins a landmark lawsuit which rocks the nation all the way to the Supreme Court. With this victory, Melanie finds herself at the pinnacle of her legal career; yet, unmarried and childless, she is consumed with a burning desire to find deeper meaning for her life, apart from her professional persona. Taking a sabbatical, Melanie sets sail alone, bound for the Caribbean. Anticipating being far from home and loved ones, she takes with her a treasured photograph album from which her grandmother had told family stories when Melanie was a small child. She expects the photographs will give her comfort in the long hours of solitude. Surprisingly, they do much more than she could have imagined as they carry her on a journey of a lifetime, through 150 years and the complex relationships connecting seven generations. She recognizes that the Bridges have always been a unique breed, exceptionally strong, bound by faith and family, with the courageous women of each generation unifying and triumphing over the unbearable circumstances of their day. Melanie realizes the family secrets which once threatened to shatter the very core of the Bridges dynasty now serve as her salvation. From the past, she discovers she is but a solitary golden thread woven in the magnificent tapestry of a collective destiny.
About the Author: It is my deepest desire that my work has meant something to each of you as you have been introduced to Melanie Bridges and her family. The story of the Bridges family has only just begun. I invite you to join them on their journey over 150 years and seven generations. Hopefully you laughed. Maybe you cried. Perhaps you simply pondered. Perchance you experienced a flood of all these and many more of your own personal emotions. Most importantly, I hope you that once you have finished the series, you realize that, no matter what battle they faced or their ultimate fate, the Bridges family's Christian faith and family bonds endured above all else. I know this to be true because I am very proud to say this real-life Southern family of survivors is in fact my own amazing family. Each and every one of whom I love with my entire heart and soul. If you have already begun to wonder which of my characters I am, the answer is many and none. My own personal life experiences have been woven among many characters so there is no "Olivia Bridges" in the novels. I have done this simply to provide a veil of anonymity for myself, my husband, and our children. In conclusion, I feel it important for you, my readers, to know something of my mother because as I wrote Rhoades to Bridges, I personally felt her presence with me more than I ever have in the sixteen long years since her death. I feel it is critical for you to understand something about the true soul who, I have no doubt, wrote this series. I merely recorded a legacy my mother somehow left hidden deep within my heart when she left this earth. A great man once said "Your imagination is nothing more than a preview of life's coming attractions." My family prays that my mother's magnificent imagination, the basis for the first paragraph of Rhoades to Bridges, was indeed a preview of life's coming attractions. I sincerely hope I have done Rhoades to Bridges justice but more importantly that I have once again made my mama proud of me. Yours Truly, Olivia Bridges
