Welcome to #ThrowBackThursday where I highlight an older review or post a current review of a backlist title. This week I’m featuring a heart-felt family drama, A Year at Marshywood by Marina McLune.

I’m linking up with Davida @ The Chocolate Lady’s Book Review Blog for #ThrowbackThursday.

My Summary:

In 1979, nineteen-year-old Amanda and her mother and father move from London to a rustic cottage in rural Sussex.  She loves being surrounded by nature and is eager to find work. It’s a bittersweet move because she misses her best friend, Samantha, and worries about her budding romance with Sam’s handsome cousin, Mark. Shocking events take place in the summer when Sam and Mark come to visit Amanda. Will this ruin her chance for romance with Mark? Is there another path to happiness for Amanda?



QOTD:

Do you love family drama and sweet romance?
