Forever My Own

Another winner by Tracie Peterson!

I adored this complex story of family secrets and new beginnings. It was fun to experience a well-written “enemies to friends to romance” storyline. This was one of the best of that trope I've read. The way misunderstandings, lies, and secrets intertwined to create a couple of estrangements was wonderful, because it made for fantastic tension and plot twists as the characters attempted to detangle the web one thread at a time. The canal-building angle was fascinating. I love how thorough Mrs. Peterson is in her research. That part of the story came alive vividly for me. I wonder what part of the lake's development will be featured next time!
