Coming Home to Greenleigh by Maya Rushing Walker

Coming Home to

Greenleigh by Maya Rushing Walker is a delicious love story and at the same time a vivid portrait of New England, its little towns and people. Traditions, old houses, old habits are the main thematic of the books. We discover that Beth, the protagonist is the owner of a very old house built in the 1700s and with serious heat system problems. She did various different works although she is a lawyer poorly paid: she needs to implement her work because of the house. She does a lot of sacrifices. She doesn't cut anymore her hair from two years, and she lives with simplicity. The old house is cold but a good warm cup of tea can do myracles.

The day of her interview at the firm where she is interested to work with, she will discover that the man she will speak with is Shawn, her biggest love. For many reasons, this love-story ended up. Shawn decided to start a new existence in New York where found a great job at Wall Street. He is back home from the Big Apple because his father hasn't been well and they have a large factory.

Of course love between them is never completely finished and many things must be said....

But at the same time Elizabeth find a new client in Angela Stuart. This lady after 40 years of marriage wants to divorce. ..Oh no, it's not like you can imagine. It hasn't been a story of betrayel, but of indifference regarding her existence.

While Elizabeth is discovering everyday more regarding Angela and her husband, Shawn is a good friend of Angela's husband. 

What will happen?

This one is a  book written with love, sentiment,

that I warmly suggest for spending some relaxing time.

I thank the author for the copy of the book.
