 A Delightful Read August 18, 2008
Romantica Reader (USA)
I did a search on Kindle for novels by Sara Donati and found this jewel. Thesupporting cast of characters wereas interesting for me as was the story of dodge and Julia. If you enjoy reading novels that give you a wonderful slice of life in the South then you dont want to miss this one. It is a keeper.

Good read with lots of quirky characters. I was a little disappointed that there wasn't a bit more to the plot.....

When Julia Darrow is widowed and left emotionally inconsolable, she moves to a small town in South Carolina where she opens a business which specialises in fine linens and nightwear. To boost her business, she employs locals who are expert needlewomen and dresses them in beautifully tailored pajamas as they are their primary source of income. Lambert Square is the centre of town life and between the other shop owners, there is a feeling of great camaraderie towards Julia and her adopted dogs, social rejects whom she trains and passes on to new owners. When former army brat, John Dodge takes over a shop which restores and sells antique fountain pens, an immediate sexual attraction is obvious between them but it takes the rest of the book to sort out all of their other problems. It's a good read with interesting and quirky characters who really engage the reader's attention.
I really liked this one. May 5, 2008

This book was boring and predictable - Julia is said to be "secretive and mysterious", someone tells the new man in town, "Don't set your sights on our Julia, she's shut up tight as a Chinese puzzle box" - I think she fell into bed with the new tenant within 48 hours of meeting him, knowing nothing about him, that's "shut up tight"? - maybe you have to be from the south to appreciate women so removed from real life that they spend all day and night in pajamas. I'm sorry I spent the money on this.
