Salting Roses
Dec 2, 2010


Salting Roses
Author: Lorelle Marinello
Publisher: Avon (Harper Collins)
Publication Date: November 30, 2010
ISBN: 978-0-061-44374-9

Gracie was raised by her relatives after her mother disappeared when she was small. She never knew who her father was. She was raised poor, but with love. Her “aunt” is in despair as Gracie is now 25 with no marriage prospects on the horizon. She has a quiet little job, leads a quiet little life and also veers more toward the tomboy side of life. She feels content.

Her entire world blows apart when a stranger shows up at the door. A good looking stranger from Connecticut who comes bearing some interesting news. Apparently she was never her mysterious mother’s child. She was a kidnapped child of a very rich man who’s now passed on and left her a fortune. People are suddenly fawning over the quiet small town girl and relatives she's never known are pouring out of the cracks looking for handouts.

She feels her life is coming apart. She has no real parents that she ever knew, she was raised by strangers after being stolen, she’s rich, and suddenly desirable when she never was even looked at twice before…………… and she feels she wants nothing but her old life back.

A story of what happens when a life suddenly turns upside down. Does money make everything rosier………….. or not?

Welcome to the Dew Book Review Section!

Welcome to the Book Review Section at the Dew!

If you are a publishing house or author who has a book Southern in nature, or by a Southern writer, that you would like the Dew to review, please contact me at dewonthekudzu@gmail.com and I will provide you mailing information. (Wink wink, nudge nudge... the Dew has been getting a little lax about the Southern rule recently... just saying.)

The Dew tries it's best to have a review online as close to the publication date as possible, depending on the number of books waiting for review.

Please note, book reviews are the Dew's "business". The Dew does NOT post it's reviews on other sites. Please do not request that we do so. Thank you.

BUT, if I review your book, you may feel free to share it wherever you wish!
