One decision changed both their lives . . . but will love win in the end? Charlotte Rose Hill enjoys a comfortable life serving up country delicacies, uniquely blended teas, and matchmaking advice for her quirky, devoted customers. The only thing lacking is someone to share it with. At eighteen she denied Sam Wilder’s marriage proposal after his family convinced her to walk away from their relationship. They both moved on . . . or so she thought. When Sam walks back into her life more than a decade later, Charlotte is surprised that her heart still quickens. But is it because of his presence? Or because of the presence of Sam’s new fiancée? A second chance at love doesn’t happen often, but their past may keep them apart. Is it too late for Sam and Charlotte?
Best-selling and award-winning author, Anita Higman, has over thirty books published (several coauthored) for adults and children. She’s been a Barnes & Noble “Author of the Month” for Houston and has a BA degree, combining speech communication, psychology, and art. Anita loves good movies, exotic teas, and brunch with her friends.
My Impressions:
Anita Higman’s newest book is full of small-town charm and quirky characters. If you are looking for a story in which true love wins, consider A Marriage in Middlebury.
Charlotte, the beloved owner of Rose Hill Tea Room, knows how to treat her customers right. Here specially blended teas, delectable treats and her compassion make her establishment a favorite destination for locals as well as out of towners. But Charlotte’s contented life comes undone when the love of her life returns home . . . with his fiance. There is going to be a marriage in town, but just which couple will be making those vows? Long held secrets and hurts are exposed to the light of day and the truth will set the characters free.
Overall, A Marriage in Middlebury, is a quick, romantic read. A bit predictable, it still will appeal to those who love character driven stories. And while I didn’t really connect with the characters, I think most fans of clean romance will find much to like in Higman’s novel. There are some strong spiritual themes in this book — forgiveness, grace and freedom through truth — that add a lot to the storyline. I suggest that you check out other reviewers in order to decide if A Marriage in Middlebury is right for you — reviews HERE.
