ABOUT THE BOOK

Welcome to Bloomfield, where life is simple, love is real, and stories are shared.

Lynn Myers is still reeling from losing her husband of thirty-five years when word comes that her only sibling, an older brother, has also died. With no one else to settle the estate, she must return to her small hometown of Bloomfield, however briefly, to settle his affairs.

Lynn’s daughter, Rachel, has just graduated from Bible college and with no other commitments comes along to sort through her uncle’s huge old home, right next to the local cemetery.

It isn't long before Rachel has two men -- a handsome CPA and the youth pastor -- seriously vying for her attention. At the same time, Lynn's attention is drawn to a set of journals her brother has left behind detailing a long-standing Bloomfield mystery.

As they pursue solving this mystery, Rachel must make some personal decisions about her future, while Lynn is forced to face unexpected issues from her own past.

My thoughts...

Inheriting an old house next to a cemetery, Lynn and her daughter Rachel, spend the summer cleaning it out. What they find is the cemetery caretaker living in a shack on the property, a complex mystery, and a town that's quick to accuse and disapprove. Rachel isn't a college kid out for fun and parties all summer, she is such a young woman full of faith and wisdom.

I really enjoyed this book, there's plenty of suspense, some wacky characters, and a sweet ending that will leave you feeling good! Macias writes great stories, I'm a big fan. I think you'll like everything about this book.

I received a copy of this book free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
