Amanda Cabot: Into the Starlight

By Kelly Bridgewater

After more than a year in Europe, Joanna Vaughn returns to Sweetwater Crossing, her dreams of becoming a concert pianist shattered. As if that weren't enough, her husband, whom she married after a whirlwind courtship, has died. The only thing sustaining her on the journey back to Texas was the thought of her childhood home. But to Joanna's dismay, she's changed so much that the place she once loved no longer feels like home.
 
After his fiancée married his partner and both blamed him for a patient's death, Dr. Burke Finley believes it's time for a change. A quick trip with his almost-aunt Della Samuels to Sweetwater Crossing turns into an extended stay to discover what happened to his uncle and her would-be husband. But the beautiful and musical Joanna makes it more than bearable.
 
As the two join forces to help Della, there is no denying the attraction felt on both sides. But ghosts from the past are coming to call--and threatening to destroy any chance at happily-ever-after.
 
Get swept away by this emotional tale of family, friendship, and the kind of love that overcomes every obstacle.

 


My Thoughts:

Into the Starlight by Amanda Cabot returns to the town of Sweetwater Crossing, Texas. I enjoyed reading the first two books in the series, and I couldn't wait to see what the third sister had been up to. I love returning to familiar faces in the town. I loved seeing the two sisters again, and what they have been up to. Sweetwater Crossing has become a vibrant little town filled with a variety of people who would be nice to meet in real life. Cabot included a mystery that Joanna works on trying to solve. No, this was not the whole purpose of her journey when she returned home. Once in a while, Cabot will bring it back up into the story, and readers will want to know the solution to the plotline. A sweet romance brings out the best in Joanna and Dr. Burke. There romance is not a romance of convenience. Instead, it grows nicely as the story moves along. Overall, Into the Starlight by Amanda Cabot was a sweet story that I actually enjoyed reading and spending time with. Definitely recommend.

I received a complimentary copy of Into the Starlight by Amanda Cabot from Revell Publishing, but the opinions stated are all my own.

My Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
