The Story:
Travel writer Julia Sullivan lives life in fastforward. She jet sets to Europe and the Caribbean with barely a moment to blink or sleep. But too many mishaps and missed deadlines have Julia on the verge of being fired.
With a stern warning, and unemployment looming, she's offered one last chance to rescue her career. Julia embarks on an unlikely journey to the ‘Heart of Dixie’—Eufaula, Alabama—home to magnificent mansions, sweet tea, and the annual Pilgrimage.
Julia arrives, soon charmed by the lovely city and her handsome host, but her stay is marred by a shocking discovery. Can Julia's story save her career, Eufaula, and the annual Pilgrimage?
My review:
5 stars out of 5
I was fortunate to get an ARC of this book!
What happens when a big city journalist gets sent to a small Southern town on an assignment she's dreading? Chaos, surprises, hilarity and good ole Southern hospitality. I loved Julia from the start, she's my kind of gal - busy, disorganized and honest to a fault. Shug and the Jordan family struck me as the stereotypical Southern family and I am ready to go visit them. The characters were wonderful in this story. The story was engrossing and enjoyable.
This book makes this Yankee long for Southern hospitality. :)
Thank you, Ms. Clark for asking me to preview this book, I feel honored. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to see what you write next!
