Boulevard of Confusion by Sandra Merville Hart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Author Sandra Merville Hart did a great job with this sequel to Avenue of Betrayal. In fact, I liked this one better! (But you need to read these in order, for sure.) Bea – Annie’s sister from book one – travels to visit her aunt in Richmond during the Civil War. Her family is split by the war, which is confusing to her, but we watch as she learns to balance the love of her family with her loyalties. And then comes Jay, the handsome Confederate soldier she barely remembers from her childhood visits. A beautiful balancing act develops between the two characters on their way to find – hopefully – happiness together. Can’t wait for book three to find out the rest of the story. (Read that last bit in your best Paul Harvey voice.)

Thanks for this awesome review, Pegg! I’m so glad you liked the book. I can’t wait for you to read Byway to Danger, Book 3. They’re all different but Book 3 might be my favorite…
