About the Book:
Emily Leland sheds no tears when her abusive
husband is killed in a bar fight, but what awaits her back home in
Sweetwater Crossing is far from the welcome and comfort she expected.
First she discovers her father has died under mysterious circumstances.
Then the house where the new schoolteacher and his son are supposed to
board burns, leaving them homeless. When Emily proposes turning the
family home into a boardinghouse, her sister is so incensed that she
leaves town.
Alone and broke, her family name sullied by
controversy, Emily is determined to solve the mystery of her father's
death--and to aid Craig Ferguson, despite her fears of men. The widowed
schoolmaster proves to be a devoted father, an innovative teacher, and
an unexpected ally. Together they must work to unmask a killer and
escape the shadows of their own pasts in order to forge a brighter
future.
Bestselling author Amanda Cabot transports you to 1880s
Texas Hill Country for a brand-new series that will have you flipping
pages to solve the mystery and get to the happily-ever-after you long
for.
My Review:
It doesnt take you long to fall in love Emily and the town of Sweetwater Crossing. Emily returns there after her husband was killed. Amanda Cabot, the author sets to work providing us with the simplicity and love Emily has for her hometown, but its not long until we find out so much more. Emily arrives here in a way as to looking up and not exactly grieving but its not long before she feels that all hope is lost.
But as soon as Emily has given herself over to being all alone in this fight and tragedies that have befallen her. An unexpected friend comes to her aide, and together they start out on this mystery. Its not long before things start looking up for everyone.
