Summary: What a beautiful story!
Review: The story is nice, but I thought the romance between the secondary characters, Alan and Opal, overshadowed it. The fact that this secondary romance was so good is why I give this book 4 stars!

Summary: Rosewood more than what it seems.....
Review: This book actually got me into the love novels. I used to call them the fabio books. I used to make fun of my aunt for reading these types of books. If you want to start with the love novel books this is a really good book. Rosewood has a good story line. Its filled with love, ..., jealousy. I really liked this book. They used details to describe the man and women. And this book shows that love making is not just ...intercourse but something secret and intimate. Even though I am very young to read these types of love books, I dont take the love making as very bad thing to read. I apreciate all the writers whether love story or other types of story's. Rosewood it is funny, lovable and very enjoyable. I really recomend this book. I give it 5 thumbs up if i had 5 thumbs.

Summary: What a beautiful story!
Review: This story is truly lovely. The heroine, Millicent Hayes, is 29 and has been caring for her brother Alan ever since he was crippled ten years ago. She lives an isolated life, interacting with few outside her close-knit family.

Then Jonathan Lawrence and his daughter Betsy move in next door. While relations between the neighbors are strained at first, Millicent and her brother Alan become close to the widower and his daughter.

This story really shines because of the characterizations. Millicent and Jonathan are likable and the secondary characters (Betsy, Alan, Opal, Oradelle and the various family memebrs) are well-drawn and are people that any reader would want to interact with within the bounds of this story. This book and Heirloom are two of my favorites by this author. I just wish Candace Camp still wrote like this!

Summary: beautiful story - you will love the characters
Review: This was one of the best books I have ever read - I wish it were not out of print - I have an old tattered copy I'm afraid of loaning out! I wish Candace Camp would write another book like this - it sure beats the drivel she has been writing since. This is a beautiful story.
