"Love, Charleston" chronicles the lives of Anna Brumley, her cousin Della Limehouse and her sister Dr. Alisha Sutton, as they all deal with different life changes.
Rev. Roy Summerall, a widow, is called upon by the Lord to move to a Charleston with his daughter. Roy recalls the Charleston being superficial. Why would he move there?
Anna is getting closer to 40 and has just moved to Charleston to find a fresh start and hopefully a husband. Her sister Alisha struggles with her husband’s problems, and tries to raise her children.
And her cousin Della has lots of problems of her own. Della’s husband is unemployed. She has to go back to teaching to pay the bills and give up on her dream of being of writer.
This was a delightful read for me. All of the characters seem real. They had day-to-day problems like everyone else. Anna, Della and Alisha stay close to each other, and support one another in time of crises. My favorite character would have to be Della. No matter what setbacks she had, she continued her dream of writing a novel. I recommend this book to all readers.
* I would like to thank Thomas Nelson for sending me this copy to review.
