After more than a year in Europe, Joanna Vaughn returns to Sweetwater Crossing, her dreams of becoming a concert pianist shattered. As if that weren't enough, her husband, whom she married after a whirlwind courtship, has died. The only thing sustaining her on the journey back to Texas was the thought of her childhood home.

But the beautiful and musical Joanna makes it more than bearable.

 

As the two join forces to help Della, there is no denying the attraction felt on both sides. But ghosts from the past are coming to call--and threatening to destroy any chance at happily-ever-after.

 

Get swept away by this emotional tale of family, friendship, and the kind of love that overcomes every obstacle.

And two strangers have  shown up seeking answers from the past. 

Burke Finley has come to Sweetwater with his aunt of the heart Della Samuels seeking  answers about his Uncle Clive Finley and the last days of his life. But all they discover is more questions, questions that led them into danger. 

This is a book that will hols your attention throughout. It is well-written but there are mo!rents that just standoit from others. And the unexpected, well there was more than one thrown in that surprised me. This book is best read after reading the previous two books in the series. It will make the twists more impactful. Highly recommend to fans of historical mystery fiction.

I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.
