Lily Bonner, daughter of Nathaniel and Elizabeth, is a major character beginning with her birth at the beginning of Dawn on a Distant Shore; she is still with us in the Waverly Place Novels. She is Elizabeth Middleton Bonner‘s first born (followed by Daniel, a few minutes later), and first daughter. The novels follow her through her childhood and young womanhood, her marriage to Simon Ballentyne, and beyond. More of Lily’s story is forthcoming in Little Birds.
