I have read and enjoyed all of author Liz Johnson’s books, and
quite frankly felt pre-disposed to like this one…but it did not completely hit
a home run for me. However, I will still recommend that you read it and decide
for yourself, please!
Loyal granddaughter Millie Sullivan was raised by her Grandma
Joy. Now that Grandma Joy is suffering from Alzheimers, she can no longer care
for her at home. After placing her in the memory care facility they can afford,
Millie is shocked and devastated to realize that time has run out to meet her
obligations there financially, and they are giving her a VERY short time to find
somewhere new. As she can’t even afford the one Grandma Joy is in now, how will
she ever make something else work?
Ben Thornton is still shamed by his mother’s con artist ways.
Her latest scam/con job has landed her in prison, and he is determined to repay
every last cent to the people she took advantage of who are listed in the
lawsuit. Ben is working three jobs to make this happen, but when he meets Millie - (whose second job doing reenactments at a historical estate happens to be where Ben is working as a security job), they join forces to find a potential treasure on the
property.
The author includes diary entries from Great Grandma Ruth (Joy’s mom), who was a summer guest at that very estate just before the Depression.
Will Millie and Ben find all the treasures they are looking for?
Although I was not in love with the entire book as I was reading,
I was pretty happy with the ending. And again, please read it for yourself and
draw your own conclusions. J
I was provided a complimentary copy of this book by Baker Publishing
Group in exchange for my honest review.
