Reviews

Flora MacCallum is an attractive young widow with three children, a heart of gold, and an incredible singing voice. But none of this helps pay the bills in her small crofting village on Scotland's northwest coast, so when best friend Libby Mackenzie, from Reding's The Secret Gift (2003), implores her to take over the management of a bed-and-breakfast in the Massachusetts fishing village of Ipswich-by-the-Sea, she accepts the offer. Small towns are the same the world over, and soon the townsfolk are eagerly promoting a romance between Flora and Gavin, a famous composer trying to cope with his ex-wife's vengeful abduction of their son and subsequent disappearance. Reding's contemporary second-chance-at-love romance is a nice blend of the old country and the new, and includes a historical mystery involving the fate of the mysterious "Ips-witch" during the 1700s, when witch-hunting hysteria overcame compassion, common sense, and justice.
