A Sparkle of Silver (Georgia Coast Romance Book #1)

by Liz Johnson

Overview

Ninety years ago, Millie Sullivan's great-grandmother was a guest at oil tycoon Howard Dawkins' palatial estate on the shore of St. Simons Island, Georgia. Now, Millie plays a 1920s-era guest during tours of the same manor. But when her grandmother suggests that there is a lost diary containing the location of a hidden treasure on the estate, along with the true identity of Millie's great-grandfather, Millie sets out to find the truth of her heritage--and the fortune that might be hers. When security guard Ben Thornton discovers her snooping in the estate's private library, he threatens to have her fired. But her story seems almost too ludicrous to be fiction, and her offer to split the treasure is too tempting to pass up . . .

Get ready for a romantic escapade through dark halls and dusty corners that will have you holding your breath and sighing with delight as two charming characters get caught up in the adventure of uncovering the past and finding their way to an unexpected future.

Editorial Reviews

09/15/2018
Working as a tour guide as a 1920s guest at the famous Dawkins mansion leads Millie Sullivan on an adventure she never expected. Her great-grandmother, an actual guest at the mansion back in its heyday, tells of a secret diary and related treasure. It's a story too good not to follow up on for Millie. Ben Thornton is a security guard at the mansion and does not look kindly on Millie's snooping around. However, when he hears her great-grandmother's tale, he cannot help but be captured by it, and by Millie herself. As the two try to outrun other treasure hunters, they find both the treasure and their hearts in danger of being lost. VERDICT Johnson ("Prince Edward Island Dreams" series) pens an evocative tale of family intrigue and dashing romance sure to delight fans of Melody Carlson and Susan Anne Mason. The romance between Millie and Ben is on a constant simmer, creating a breathtaking dynamic that will satisfy romantic suspense fans. Johnson's followers will be lining up for this new series.—Christine Sharbrough, Industry, TX
