A Spring at The Greenbrier

By: Merville Hart, Sandra

They have so much in common...yet love is not allowed between the wealthy and the staff.

Marilla will sacrifice anything for her family, so when her sister's doctor suggests daily sulphur spring baths, an amenity her family could never afford, Marilla takes a job at The Greenbrier resort bathhouse in order to give her sister the care she needs. When her sister befriends another girl staying at the resort with a similar health condition, Marilla finds herself crossing paths with the girl's handsome, charming, older brother. And despite their growing attraction to each other, anything more than friendship with Wes must remain a dream. After all, resort staff cannot court guests and Marilla will not risk her sister's health for her own happiness.

Wealthy resort guest, Wes Bakersfield, has dreams for a future and plans to make his family's business his own. And while he finds himself drawn to Marilla, despite their differing social classes, he can't help but wonder if she's really interested in him-or in his wealth.

Can the couple find the trust to help their love succeed, or will their differences pull them apart?

Inspiring Historical

This is book seven in the Romance at the Gilded Age Resorts but each book is a standalone with the common theme being a different resort. I was excited to read this one as I have visited the Greenbrier several times and I am originally from Greenbrier County so I could visualize the trip from the Greenbrier to Lewisburg. I feel the author captured the place and time and did a wonderful job of showing the benefits of bathing in the sulphur waters. It was nice to see polio brought to the light, as it is rare to see it written about in fiction and I saw its effects firsthand in my cousin. The romance is sweet and the friendship between the children that crossed social lines was inspiring. It shows we are all human no matter our social class and matters of the heart is possible. I loved Marilla and her strength to do whatever was needed to help her family out of love. A small book with a powerful punch. I recommend grabbing this quick read and settling in for an entertaining afternoon. I received a complimentary copy from CelebrateLit. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required.
