5.0 out of 5 stars
profound family drama, Aug 25 2009
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: LOVE FINDS YOU IN SISTERS, OREGON (Paperback)
Thirty-two years old attorney Hope Bartolli comes home to Sisters, Oregon to attend her beloved Nona's funeral. Still grieving her loss and filled with guilt for not returning more often to see Nona before she died, Hope is stunned that her grandmother's will includes a stipulation for her to inherit. She must remain in Sisters for one year.
Hope left Sisters to avoid her ex boyfriend Drew and her baby sister Cherry after they became an entry and married. She does not want to go home because she knows sibling warfare is what awaits her as she still is hurt and angry; as the only gem left for her in Sisters is her eleven year old niece Avery. The oldest sister Faye is also arriving coming from Portland having split from her husband Still for Nona, Hope will try, but her premonition proves correct as the three sisters go to war with one another.
Although there is a romance with Lewis the state executor, the well written story line is more about the relationships between three adult sisters who became enemy combatants that Nona wanted to end and also hoped her Hope would find happiness back in Sisters. The key characters including the late Nona are fully drawn so that the fights and squabbles seem genuine. Fans who appreciate a profound family drama will want to tour Sisters, Oregon guided by Faith, Hope, and Charity.

I enjoyed reading this book. I read it in a day. It is an easy read with a believable story line and wonderful details about the scenery. I felt that it was genuine and uplifting- exactly the type of book I want to read and recommend.

I really struggled with this book, because her sisters were waaaayyy out there, and then the ending was tied up in a nice little bow. I guess that is why it is fiction. It was an ok story line, a lot unrealistic, but fun to read about Sisters, Oregon and the Sisters mountain range.
