What can I say? This book is beautiful, not only is it written beautifully but the story and its characters are just beautiful. Once again the story takes place in a southern town that just makes you want to pack your life up and move there. Sarah Addison Allen is a brilliant writer, all her books have a beautiful theme throughout them, you can easily recognise Sarah from the first page, its just a feeling of warmth. Simply put the story is about a woman named Willa Jackson who of course has a family with a past and with pasts there are usually secrets, bring in socialites, a grand house and of course a delightful hunk named Colin and this is a definite warm place with the sun on your face kind of book. If you haven't read any of Sarah Addison Allen's books then please do, yes there are underlying currents of romance in most of her books but they aren't sappy or cheesy, instead you will be wrapped up in a beautiful town with strange yet lovely folk and taken on a wonderful journey.
