Book Spotlight & Giveaway: The View from Prince Street by Mary Ellen Taylor (Giveaway Closed!)

Title: The View from Prince Street

Author: Mary Ellen Taylor

Series: Alexandria, #2

Published: January 2016, Berkley

Format: Paperback, 352 pages

The author of The Union Street Bakery and At the Corner of King Street returns to Alexandria, Virginia, with a heartfelt tale of reconnection.

Rae
McDonald was fifteen when a car accident took her sister’s life and
threw her own into reckless turmoil. When she got pregnant a year later,
she found a loving couple to adopt the child. Since then, she’s buried
her grief and guilt under a heart of stone.

Lisa Smyth survived
the fateful crash, but never told the truth about what happened. And
when a family obligation draws her back to Alexandria, the weight of
Lisa’s guilt grows heavier by the day.

As both women confront a past
refusing to be forgotten, long-buried artifacts are discovered by the
Shire Architectural Salvage Company that point to a shared history
between families.  Now, Rae and Lisa must finally ask themselves if
denying the past is worth sacrificing the future.

Early Praise for The View from Prince Street:

“Taylor’s complex tale spans three families
over two centuries and includes a dose of ancient magic, but the story remains
grounded in fascinating history and emotional turmoil that is intense yet
subtle. An intelligent, heartwarming exploration of the powers of forgiveness,
compassion, and new beginnings.”–Kirkus Reviews

“The
second book in Taylor’s Alexandria series completes the story started in the
first novel, and everything wraps up beautifully. Continuing characters from
The Union Street Bakery series provide richer depth to the narrative. Themes
of family, letting go of the past and owning up to mistakes breathe life and
emotion into the tale.”–RT
Book Reviews

    This sounds like a book I'd read. Added it to my TBR and a few of the author's other books. Thanks for giving this opportunity.
