A Beautiful Story!,
By S. Barrett (Santa Cruz, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Summer Place (Paperback)
When Laurel Eden chooses Belleport, a quaint Lake Michigan town, in which to set up her crafts shop, she feels she has been drawn to the place, but she doesn't understand why. And when she meets town attorney Ben Nolan, she feels she has found a man with whom she can open up and be herself--the carefree, laughing person she was before her stifling, trophy wife marriage. Ben finds Laurel and her Carpe Diem attitude unique. He's drawn to her as to no other, but his plate is full with caring for five needy siblings and his mother following the death of his dad, a Vietnam vet.When Katherine Sullivan befriends Laurel, she sees something in this young woman which prompts an investigation that will have a far-reaching effect on Laurel and her ex-hippie parents, and on Laurel's relationship with Ben. This is a meaty book, wonderfully written, that explores the human soul. Ms. Abbott's grasp of both sides of the Vietnam conflict provides a depth to this story, and her wonderful characterizations make these people come alive. Caution: Read this book with a supply of hankies on hand. The principal characters' dilemmas make for tearful reading, but the story's satisfying conclusion will warm the cockles of your heart.
