Compelling and Gripping!

A gripping novel of secrets, forgiveness, and lasting love. Jenny Summerlin is no stranger for fighting for survival, she has been doing just that her whole life as an orange farmer in Florida, but when a priceless treasure is found on her land it brings up long buried secrets that threaten her livelihood and her hard won peace. A compelling novel with a gritty heroine, forbidden love, and Cold War era secrets that threaten to destroy her chance at rebuilding a future. Jenny has been through a lot in her life, and just when things are beginning to look hopeful, it is all turned on its head again. I loved the complex storyline that pulled me in with complex characters and intricately moving parts, with a mystery that kept me guessing the loyalties of those around her. Jenny is resilient, and a fighter all the way through. I liked her loyalty to family, while working to mend bridges and still holding her head up high. Wyatt is a stickler for the rules, he is caught between a rock and a hard place when it comes to Jenny and his family, he's got dreams of getting out of the smalltown life, but also ties that keep him where he is. Overall, a suspenseful and compelling novel, that had me riveted to the page. Elizabeth Camden has again proved that I will read and love anything she writes! I liked the strong themes of family, faith and forgiveness. Highly recommend this gripping novel! I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
