About this ebook

Romance and Drama to Capture the Heart in This Emotional Tale

The last thing Libby Sawyer and her father expected upon their return from their summer home was to find strangers inhabiting a house that had been in their family for decades. Widower Michael Dobrescu brought his family from Romania to the town of Colden, Massachusetts with a singular purpose: to claim the house willed to him long ago. Since neither party has any intention of giving up their claim, a fierce legal battle ensues between the two families.

When important documents go missing from the house, Libby suspects Michael is the culprit. Determined to discover the truth behind the stolen papers, Libby investigates, only to find more layers of mystery surrounding Michael and his family. Despite their rivalry, Libby finds herself developing feelings for this man with the mysterious past.

As a decision about the house looms in the courts, Libby must weigh the risks of choosing to remain loyal to her family or give her heart to a man whose intentions and affections are less than certain.

Ratings and reviews

This is the first book/audible I have listened to by this author and can I say, I am so glad to begin with this amazing story! At first it was hard to get use to the narrator's voice, but as the story went on, it became perfect! The story of a young lady and her father who return home and find their home taken over by a Romanian family. They claimed it was their inheritance from the the last owner, who had also been Romanian. Full of mystery, angst, amazing characters, either main or side characters, subtle humor that made me smile so much and a journey to love and discoveries that change life as they knew it.. I cannot wait to listen to more and am thankful for this new author to me!

Loved this book. The plot was not completely predictable and the main characters has to learn to love each other. It wasn't easy.

I couldn't put it down. Loved it.
