The Rose of Winslow Street
Bethany House (January 1, 2012)

ABOUT THE BOOK

The last thing Libby Sawyer and her father expected upon their return from their summer home was to find strangers inhabiting a house that had been in their family for decades. Widower Michael Dobrescu brought his family from Romania to the town of Colden, Massachusetts with a singular purpose: to claim the house willed to him long ago. Since neither party has any intention of giving up their claim, a fierce legal battle ensues between the two families.

When important documents go missing from the house, Libby suspects Michael is the culprit. Determined to discover the truth behind the stolen papers, Libby investigates, only to find more layers of mystery surrounding Michael and his family. Despite their rivalry, Libby finds herself developing feelings for this man with the mysterious past.

As a decision about the house looms in the courts, Libby must weigh the risks of choosing to remain loyal to her family or give her heart to a man whose intentions and affections are less than certain.

Kay's Comments: This book is a wild ride! At first read, it appears to be a typical historical romance. In fact, I almost quit about a third of the way through because I thought the end was too predicatable. Not so! This entertaining story is full of quirky turns and interesting twists. It has all the elements of a good, serious novel along with lots of smiles.  Enjoy!
