About the Book:
One accidental kiss from Lawry Hampton. That was all it took
to throw Meredyth Summercourt's world upside down. Determined to marry the
ever-elusive Vance Everstone, she simply doesn't have the time or desire to
fall for her best friend Lawry Hampton. But with Vance out of the country, and
with Lawry at her side nearly every day, teaching her what the world is like
through the eyes of a little orphan girl named Wynn. Now Meredyth can't deny
that what's holding her to Vance is nothing more than a desire to redeem
herself from her past. Will she marry Vance once he returns from Europe? Or
will she be strong enough to break free from the tangled web she's convinced
she deserves, and accept that God's plan for her life includes
redemption...and, quite possibly, Lawry Hampton?
My review:
The title offers a great glimpse into what readers can
expect in this sisters about a powerful and elite New England family at the
close of the nineteenth century. The Everstones have everything…particularly heir
to the hotel and lumber empire, Vance Everstone, who lives more like a
Regency-era rake and gets almost everything he desires. The somewhat spoiled
Meredyth Summercourt, family friend, harbors a secret for years that keeps her
emotionally stunted and too blinded to her ambition of pretending marriage will
redeem her from a bad choice.
When a man from her past returns with one goal in mind,
Meredyth is thrown into a kaleidoscope of pieces of her life swirling out of
control. The secrets were never as concealed as she had always believed, and
their revelation is her absolution or her shame.
