This one has a little bit of everything....Romance, mystery, and great characters....As much as I love Miss Thomas' historicals, Her contemporaries are just as engrossing and I almost feel like I know the townspeople by heart....I heard this author just won the national book award for Finding Mary Blaine.

This is an excellent book. It has a bit of ramance in it, but it is not a "romance book". Very enjoyable!
Every house has a secret and this one is wonderful.
You should read this with an oxygen mask nearby, because according to the Romantic Times, "Jodi Thomas will leave you breathless!"
very good.
Pretty slow-going at first, but there is a good story line.
I have read a few of her other books and have always enjoyed them; however I must say this is the most comical one yet. While the story line it's self is mysterious, serious and hints of romance; there are two spinster sisters, the Rogers sisters as they are refered to who had me laughing the whole time. They showed me what my best friend and I will be like in 60 years!
It starts off slow but once you associate the characters it pulls you in. Another great book.
i love this author. she keeps you guessing till the end as to who did what or why. is a book you dont want to put down.
This book was good about a girl that is aprofessor and loses her mom and grandma and finds out about a secret when she moves to texas. very good page turner
Everyone assumes Rosa Lee Altman lived a life without passion. But burial secrets are meant to be revealed. And no one is prepared for what they discover beneath Rosa Lee's overgrown roses-or how her legacy will change their lives with love.
This is the second time I've read this book which was published in 2005. I love Jodi Thomas, and this book rates right up there with her best. I love her characters and how they all interact together. Friendships are made, they learn more about themselves & they make fast friends for life, all because of a committee they've been appointed to by the Mayor of their city. Loved It!!
Fun Fast Read
I didn't read the book.
