Lavender Blues

by Donna Bocks

Overview

Before Sally left her hometown of Green Bay for the new job, her Aunt Violet, dealing with the onset of Alzheimer’s, asked an unusual favor. "Go to the edge of town, by the water where the lakes join. Look for manicured woods. The spring flowers will look like blue carpeting. If he’s still there, tell him. . . I’ve never forgotten.'" An unusual request from her Aunt Violet leads Sally Gordon to an old acquaintance and to a very old house with a mysterious past. Determined and resourceful, Sally embarks on an historic restoration and finds friendship and more in this touching tale.

About the Author

Donna Bocks is a remarkable woman, author and motivational speaker. Being a storyteller all her life, she finally found the courage to bring her six hand written novels up from the basement and into the hands of the reader at the age of 78. Most of Donna’s novels are set in her home state of Michigan where she says “Stories happen walking every day in the neighborhood. The houses begin to speak and the stories grow street by street, house by house.”

Editorial Reviews

Donna is remarkable, and her novels are too! She writes like Anne Tyler. Her characters are quirky and often hilarious. They form unlikely but delightful partnerships and Donna
holds them all with respect and affection. —Pam Suwinsky, Bloomers
