About the Book

Title: Escape to Whispering Creek
Author: Barbara M. Britton
Publisher: White Rose Publishing
Release Date: September 27, 2024
Genre: Contemporary Christian Romance

Emma Uranova enjoys her office job until her boss disappears with the investors' money. To avoid the media storm and false accusations, Emma flees to Whispering Creek, Tennessee to live on her best friend' s secluded property. When a temporary position opens up in Nashville, Emma leaves small-town anonymity to pad her depleted bank account. With a handsome new boss and a steady income, Emma believes life is looking up... until she discovers she has transported the scandal in her backpack. Where is God when her life is falling apart?

Wade Donoven is recuperating from a crash that sidelined him from the family electrical business. Worse yet, his prodigal younger brother is getting the glory for Wade' s accomplishments. Desperation, and physical setbacks, have him agreeing to let Emma help him manage the business office. But when trouble follows her to his doorstep, Wade must make some difficult choices. Sending Emma back to Whispering Creek may unknowingly place the woman he's come to love in danger.

My thoughts: I enjoyed this cozy mystery! I loved the small town setting in Whispering Creek, since I have a soft spot for small towns. I could only imagine what it would be like to be in Emma's shoes, when her former boss took off with her savings and that of some of their clients. She needs a safe place to land. Even though Wade is bitter about a recent injury sidelining him, it winds up giving him a chance to get to know Emma and perhaps help her unravel the mystery surrounding her former bosses.

I enjoyed this well written story and the character development! I look forward to returning to Whispering Creek with the Christmas theme story.

I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.
