I have been given permission to reprint reviews from WeWriteRomance.com here on my site, so from time to time you’ll see some. Here’s the latest for Tribute!

Cilla McGowen is the granddaughter of Hollywood legend Janet Hardy and the daughter of a Hollywood wannabe. She was a child star with her own series, but when the series ended and voice overs and bit parts didn’t interest her any longer, she knew she wanted something more out of life than the flash and burn of Hollywood. So she went to college for a semester, then got married and subsequently divorced (even though her exhusband and her are still best friends).

Now, when Dilly, Cilla’s mother, needs money to get a show together, Cilla offers her the money for a piece of family property located in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Dilly begrudgingly takes the money and hands over the unmaintained property.

Cilla had been doing contractor work for a while, and she was ready for something that was going to be her own and something that would enable her to rebuild her relationship with her father at the same time. The property was the key. And all was going well until weird things started to happen around Little Farm. Things like horrible notes being left in the mailbox and dolls that looked Cilla showing up.

Ford Sawyer, the neighbor across the road, meets Cilla and can’t quite shake the feelings he has for her. Ford and Cilla start getting together when the accidents start and he tries to help her solve the mysterious death of her grandmother, and find out who is trying to run her off from Little Farm in order to keep the secrets hidden.

This is a good book for curling up with and having a nice cup of tea, it’s not my typical murder mystery but it really has substance and feeling, I will keep it with my growing collection of Nora Roberts books. It has kind of a homey feel to it.

I haven’t had the chance to get this one yet, but it’s on my definite TBR pile. If you have, I’d love to know if you agree with the review.
