Into the Starlight
Joanna Vaughn has returned from Europe to Sweetwater Crossing after the death of her husband and grandmother. Her dreams as a concert pianist in tatters, she is hoping to regain her life at Finley House where she was raised. To her surprise Burke Finely has brought his aunt Della to see the house that his uncle Clive built for her when they were engaged. Tragedy took Clive before he could collect his bride, and Della wants to know what happened all those years ago.
There are many twists and turns in this story. Burke and Joanna dive into finding out where Clive mysteriously went after leaving Sweetwater Crossing. The mystery end was such a surprise. Clean, slow romance between the two main characters.
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Oh Say Can You See....
The words for the Star-Spangled Banner, written by Francis Scott Key, sprang to life as he was observing the bombardment of Fort McHenry during the War of 1812. Originally it was a poem of Key's entitled, "Defense of Fort McHenry," that came to be sung to the tune of "To Anacreon in Heaven". It's melody was attributed to an Englishman named John Stafford Smith. Benjamin Carr of Baltimore published the first musical edition of "The Star-Spangled Banner." that grew in popularity with the passage of time. In 1931 an act of Congress made it official national anthem of the United States. (Source)Thanking God for the Freedom to enjoy Independence Day!
Oh, say, does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
