Genre: Romance
Summer, fall, winter, spring—Smitten, Vermont , is the place for love . . . and
mystery!
There’s a secret in Grandma Rose’s attic—a forgotten set of
dog tags belonging to her first love. But David Hutchins was killed in action
and never returned to Smitten. How did the dog tags end up in the attic?
The mystery intrigues Rose’s three granddaughters—Tess,
Clare, and Zoe—and they decide to investigate, though their mother, Anna, warns
against meddling. But as the seasons turn and the mystery unravels, the three
young women and their mother encounter some intriguing mystery men of their
own. Has a sixty-year-old puzzle sparked something new for this close-knit
family of women?
SECRETLY SMITTEN is the follow up to this award-winning
quartet’s novella collection, Smitten, and
this one is tinged with mystery. At first I thought it’d be a mystery tied into
Colleen’s story Love Between the Lines, but
as I finished that first one with no clear resolution of the mystery, it became
clear it stretched through-out the book.
I thoroughly enjoyed all four stories in this book, all
written by some of my favorite authors, all different types of genres. But the
stories mesh well together. If you like novella collections, then consider
SECRETLY SMITTEN for an end-of-summer romantic collection. $15.99. 432 pages.
