He wants to save his business. She wants to be a professor. But are they asking for more than they can really have?
After a flood damages the looms at Zenus Dane's Philadelphia textile mill and the bank demands loan payment, Zenus turns to his aunt for help repurposing his textiles. Trouble is . . . his aunt has already been hired by the lovely yet secretive Englishwoman Mary Varrs.
Eager to acquire his aunt's quilt patterns, Zenus attends the summer Quilting Bee, a social event his aunt has uniquely designed with the secret purpose of finding Zenus a wife. However Zenus only has eyes for Mary, but Mary has no such desire for him.
Though his aunt is determined to design a masterpiece marriage, both Zenus and Mary will have to overcome their stubborn ways. Can he realize that love requires stepping out of his routine? And will she recognize that following her heart doesn't mean sacrificing her ambition?
*My Review*
First off, I want to say that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the cover of this book!! It is so gorgeous. When I first got the email I thought it was church pews, and even after the book arrived I thought that. It wasn't until someone in the litfuse group that I'm in said something about it being spools of thread. I had to do a double take!
Now on to what I thought about the book...This book is so very well written, I cannot wait to read more books from Gina in the future. I won't go into great detail about the book, because I wouldn't want to spoil it for anyone. I really loved the humor in this book. It took me a few chapters to get into the book, but once I got into it I fell in love with it 100 times over.
