Book 3 in the Bellamy's Blossoms series by award-winning romance author Ginny Aiken. The youngest of the three Southern belles clashes with the handsome new town doctor. Independent Camellia learns to rely on God's strength rather than her own capabilities.
Ginny Aiken, a former newspaper reporter, lives in Pennsylvania with her husband and their three younger sons--the oldest is married, has flown the coop, and made her a doting grandmother. Born in Havana, Cuba, and raised in Valencia and Caracas Venezuela, Ginny discovered books at an early age. She wrote her first novel at age fifteen while she trained with the Ballets de Caracas, later to be known as the Venezuelan National Ballet. She burned that tome when she turned a "mature" sixteen. An ecletic list of jobs--including stints as reporter, paralegal, choreographer, language teacher, retail salesperson, wife, mother of four boys, and herder of their numerous and assorted friends, including the 135 members of first the Crossmen and then the Bluecoats Drum & Bugle Corps--brought her back to books in search of her sanity. She is now the author of twenty-seven published works, but she hasn't caught up with that elusive sanity yet.
This book is great if you want a light, often humorous and comedic, novel to read. If you want to read something serious and thought-provoking, this isn't necessarily that type. Forgiveness, clean romance, evangelizing, and a mystery to solve kept me interested enough to finish the story, even though some parts were a little silly for my taste. It is the third in the series about the "Blossom" sisters.
