Book Description
"Virginia, or the Old Dominion, as her children delight to call her, has always been famed for the style of her living ... Tearing the glittering arms of King George from their sideboards, and casting them, with their costly plate and jewels, as offerings into the lap of the Continental Congress, they introduced in their homes that new style of living in which, discarding all the showy extravagance of the old, and retaining only its inexpensive graces, they succeeded in perfecting that system which, surviving to this day, has ever been noted for its beautiful and elegant simplicity. This system, which combines the thrifty frugality of New England with the less rigid style of Carolina, has been justly pronounced, by the throngs of admirers who have gathered from all quarters of the Union around the generous boards of her illustrious sons, as the very perfection of domestic art." -- Preface.

Author: Erica J Whelton
Publisher: Sunseri Design Publishing
ISBN: 195606916X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Two women, one soul spanning two different lifetimes and one vengeful husband. Anna-Rose thought she had met the man of her dreams. She moved across the country from her urban home to the small pioneering town of Wisteria, Texas, to be with her new husband. But soon the dream turns to a nightmare when his anger surfaces. She now lives in fear and walks on eggshells. After he causes her to miscarry several times, she decides enough is enough. Lindsey is fired from her job only to come home to find her husband in the middle of leaving her. He already filed for divorce. How could her day get worse? Instead of wallowing, she decides to shake up her life. She randomly picks a spot on the map. Wisteria, Texas sounds nice, and the abandoned house has all the potential for a quaint bed and breakfast, except for one thing, an extremely angry ghost haunts it. Journals and pictures left in the attic point to an odd coincidence. Lindsey and Anna-Rose could pass for twins, but they were born over 100 years apart. Their appearances explain why the ghost keeps calling her Anna-Rose and seems to be mistaking Lindsey for his wife. Before this spirit ruins her business, she must find a way to rid herself of him or this entire new life she’s built will be swept away.
