An Unexpected Suitor

By Anna Schmidt

Book Overview

After years of caring for others, Nola Burns is ready for her own dream-- running a Nantucket tearoom. And it will take more than charm for dashing entrepreneur Harrison Starbuck to buy her out. After all, what proper lady could trust a man who thinks the theater is a suitable venue for God's word? All Harry offers is a business proposition. So why should it bother him when Nola receives threatening notes? He has no reason to be concerned for the vivid, spirited woman...does he? Yet as the threats escalate, Harry's plans shift. Now this unexpected suitor only wants to keep Nola safe-- and cherished--for a lifetime.

Customer Reviews

acting, piano, romance and a lot of tea

this is a delightful book, focusing on the personalities of the characters and on their feelings. it focuses on the relationships between different people and goes quite deep. it is, of course a romance, a christian romance and there is a great deal of tender, sweet wooing, all of which is beautifully interwoven with deep christian truths. it also contains quite a lot about theatre and actors, which is one of my favourite subjects. something else that made me love this book, was that the people in it are (mostly) good-natured, even though they have their faults, and redeemable. i loved this, as when i finished the book, i had a generally pleasant feeling about the world, which i think is one of the things a good book ought to do for the reader. it is remarkable how the author manages to do that and still be quite realistic in the complexities of the characters.
