Amazon rating 3/5 stars
"Eliza Shaw has come home to a place of both good and bad childhood memories. She was raised in the small town of Maraville, Mississippi, mainly by a foster parent, Maddie, who has recently suffered a stroke. Eliza returns home to help, temporarily abandoning her career as a promising chef in Boston. She also has left behind her fianc??, Stephen. For some reason she has been afraid to set a date for the wedding.
Eliza was one of three foster children living with Maddie, but the girls were separated when Maddie was wrongly accused of beating one of them. Now, fourteen years later, Eliza is ready to renew friendships with her foster sisters." - Complete review at BookLoons - M Lofton.
I enjoyed this story of a woman returning home to make amends to the foster mother she felt she had treated harshly as a child, but did not buy the romance between Cade and Eliza, Eliza's highschool sweetheart. However, it was worth the read.
