Upon learning of her mother's death, Hollywood actress Vivien Leigh Rochet hurried back to her South Carolina home. There she found everything the same as when she left several years ago...everything except Henry Whitley-Shuler. Henry and his brother grew up on the same property as Vivien. Their rich parents owned the property and Vivien's mother cleaned the big house. While growing up, Henry was Vivien's nemesis. Now he is a shoulder to lean on while she is dealing with her mother's funeral. And, as she takes time off to settle her mother's affairs, she finds he may just be the guy she needs in her life.
I've always enjoyed Rachel Gibson's books, but this one is a miss for me. The characters were one-dimensional, especially Vivien. She was also rather annoying. I didn't like the stupid secrets that were being kept in the family. I think the story could have done without that. On the plus side, the excerpts from thirteen-year-old Vivien's diary were the highlight of this book. My rating: 2 Stars.
