Overview

A Summer to Remember

Award-winning, multi-published author Cheryl Bolen turns her attention away from the British Isles to craft three achingly romantic tales set in nineteenth-century America.

THE FOUR-LEAF CLOVER
A Novella (23,000 words) 101 Pages
Originally published in mass market paperback in 2004 (Fourth of July Picnic anthology)
Heat index: Steamy

Norman Sterling, the wealthy mayor of Peace, Missouri, shocks himself at his town's Fourth of July picnic by proposing to the beautiful Mildred Gresham, a beauty he's worshipped from afar for more than six years. Equally as shocking is Mildred's quick acceptance. If only he were possessed of a silver tongue, if only he could tell her how truly he loves her.

Millie comes alive in Norman's arms, but her reticent husband never tells her he loves her. As he grows more distant she is tormented that he loves another. Will she ever be able to secure her husband's love?

"Cheryl Bolen's Four-Leaf Clover is too adorable for words." Mrs. Giggles
