The Swindler's Daughter by Stephania H. McGee

 

Lillian is raised by her "widowed" mother who wants Lillian to marry slightly above her station so as to secure a good future for both Lillian and her mother. 

But then the unexpected happens and Lillian is left the inheritance of her father who has only just now died. She travels to Dawsonville where she is confronted with secrets and a whole new life. She is given community, family, friendships and acceptance, something she has never had before. 

It was a fun light read, but I can't say I gained any huge inspiration from it. It was pretty fluffy.

Of course, there was Jonah battling his own things and struggling to come to terms with the way his own life was turning out. So you know the end of all that, but on the way there there was some danger and some twists and turns in the plot which added to the story. 

I received this book from Revell and was not required to write a positive review.  All opinions expressed are my own.
