Handbag and Book with guest author Lynn Slaughter - When Does a Bag Become Sentimental?
Confession! I’m not a handbag person. But I carry this simple black bag that says “It’s a Good Day to Write” because of its sentimental value. It was a gift from a close friend who drove from Cincinnati to Louisville for my first book signing at Barnes and Noble. We’ve been friends since we were young professional dancers, and her love and support has meant so much to me.
Leisha never intended to fall in love with classical singing or get involved with Cody Harrington—let alone risk her life trying to find her missing teacher.
Leisha knows something’s wrong. Her beloved vocal coach at boarding school would never have resigned and disappeared like this in the midst of preparing her prize students for a major vocal competition. Leisha’s determined to find her, make sure she’s okay. Cody, a sensitive cellist, insists on helping her. Sparks fly, clues multiply, and romance blossoms, despite the disapproval of their families.
Leisha’s desire to be with Cody and pursue music rather than medicine puts her on a direct collision course with her African American grandfather, the only parent she’s ever known. But an even more immediate threat looms—because as Leisha draws closer to the truth about her teacher’s disappearance, she puts her own life in grave danger.
