My Rating: TBR From the author of Summer at Hideaway Key comes a sweeping new Southern women's fiction novel about forgiving the past one letter at a time... The truth lies between the lines... A year ago, Dovie Larkin's life was shattered when her fiancé committed suicide just weeks before their wedding. Now, plagued by guilt, she has become a fixture at the cemetery where William is buried, visiting his grave daily, waiting for answers she knows will never come. Then one day, she sees an old woman whose grief mirrors her own. Fascinated, she watches the woman leave a letter on a nearby grave. Dovie ignores her conscience and reads the letter—a mother's plea for forgiveness to her dead daughter—and immediately needs to know the rest of the story. As she delves deeper, a collection of letters from the cemetery's lost and found begins to unravel a decades-old mystery involving one of Charleston's wealthiest families. But even as Dovie seeks to answer questions about another woman's past—questions filled with deception, betrayal, and heartbreaking loss—she starts to discover the keys to love, forgiveness, and finally embracing the future…

About the Author

Barbara Davis

Barbara was born in New Jersey, and grew up in south Florida. Eventually, work led her north, to the Carolinas where she lived in Charleston for two years and then Raleigh for ten. After twelve years in the jewelry industry, she finally surrendered to the muse, leaving the business world in order to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a writer. She now lives in Rochester, New Hampshire with the love her of life, Tom, and their ginger cat, Simon, where she continues to write tales set in the gorgeous south.

When she isn't writing she is an avid reader and lover of music, a football fanatic, and a devoted Florida Gator fan. She also enjoys travel with her sweetheart, Tom, who over the years has learned much more about the craft of writing than he ever wanted to know.

Barbara is currently working on her fifth novel, which is anticipated in 2017. Read More
