It seems a lot of folks are taking the last few days of summer for a quick little vacation.
And do you know what we heard while we stayed here?
Nothing, absolutely nothing :-)

A visit in history
On a trip up north, we visited the restored home of Lt. Col. J. Jones, built in the 1700's.
Lt. Col. Jones was a personal escort to Martha Washington, our first Presidents First Lady, when she visited Pennsylvania.
This home is located in Morgantown, PA.
It's always interesting to find historical landmarks whenever we travel.

The Second Story Bookshop
The Second Story Bookshop by Denise Hunter is a second chance romance story.
Shelby and Grays relationship is rocky at best. As high school sweethearts, they are torn apart by circumstances that leaves Shelby heartbroken and Gray rejected. When Gray returns he learns that he has been left 49% of the bookstore that Shelby thought she had inherited. What was Gram thinking?
The story is light reading. Clean romance, beautifully written as only Denise Hunter can. The second chance takes you through some drama and a slow build of trust. The story has a good flow and keeps your interest.
I received a complimentary ebook copy from the publisher, through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
