Shadows of Greens & Memories
Francis Barrett returns to her hometown of Storm Lake, Iowa to take care of the family holdings, such as they are, after her father passes. While turning his garden shed into a small but livable cottage, she runs into an old flame she admired from afar but never dared speak with during their high school days. Using her secret passion of oil painting to unwind from long days of clearing out the mess, Francis finds her father also had a secret passion and left behind a tale of a man she didn't truly know. George Frederick McKenry never left the Midwest town where he was born other than brief travels with his four children, who he now has custody of since his ex moved into a condo with her new boyfriend. Running into the one girl from school who rebuffed him when he asked her out, G.F. can't help checking on her and making sure she's getting along alright. False assumptions and past resentments fade as Fran and G.F. let down their guards in order to create new memories. Excerpts: Chapter 1 | Community Band | "A romantic comedy in literature. You cannot help but fall in love with these characters. This sweet romance will have the reader rooting for the sassy, nerdy girl." Liz, Reader Review "I love the literary feel of Kaye's books. Her characters reach out and grab me. They teach me as well. Two lessons I'll take from this book: Hope abides. Love endures."
