Hoping for Treasure by Bettie Boswell

A Sequel to On Cue

Current Day—Ginny discovers a hidden compartment in an old desk soon after her marriage to Scott. The ancient typewriter and some manuscripts inside snagged my interest immediately.

In 1946—A WWII soldier boards in the boarding house where Betsy lives and works. She likes Dale but his family owns a farm. No way is she returning to the farm life that was her childhood. Yet she secretly is attracted to him.

There’s also a Civil War element to this story. That’s not part of the time slip element yet is still a thread in the story.

I enjoyed this time slip story. The author weaves a multi-layered tale that binds the present to the past through a beautiful historic home. Each era holds its own tragedy. Realistic, lovable characters snagged my interest from the first chapter and held on.

Recommended for readers of historical romance, time slip, and nostalgia.
