Actress, Mia Emerson finds herself in the midst of a breakup of her engagement, and a scandal through no fault of her own. She needs to leave town and get away, so she goes to North Caroline to Bluebell Inn, a place her grandparents once owned and the location of the honeymoon she never canceled. She meets Levi Bennett who runs the Inn along with his younger sisters. She has to get everyone involved in helping her to dodge the press while she is there. She finds there is an old journal that hints there is a rare blue diamond necklace hidden somewhere in the Inn. There are also references to her grandparents. She and the others get caught up looking for the necklace and Mia and Levi find themselves drawn to each other, as they dodge the press.
Author Denise Hunter is such a great writer she creates characters there you get to know, are invested in the outcome of the story, it moves along well and you want to finish the book and finish their story. She writes Christian Romance that is more about the romance and not as heavy in the Christian portion. Her character Mia discovers she needs more faith in her life.

own instead.
