To Love and Cherish by Tracie Peterson and Judith Miller is actually the second book to the Bridal Veil Island series. I did not realize it was a part of a series until I received the book but it could be easily read apart from the series.
Melinda Colson is a lady's maid who falls in love with a young man who works at the Bridal Veil resort she often visits. The story weaves through a tragic hurricane, a gambling brother, threats from a woman guest, and even an assassination of the president.
The setting of this book is beautiful in my mind and the cover helps put the mental picture together. I like the idea behind the plot but this was not my favorite book. It was a tad difficult to get into simply because it drags on for quite awhile and Melinda irritates me to no end. I like how she is learning patience but her goal to the end of the book is rather selfish and she is just to pushy of a character. The ending is predictable and I was a little disappointed with the lack of twist in the story line.
The authors are great and I have read many by them both before this is just not one of my favorite. I'm sure others will enjoy it though.

"I received this book for free from Bethany House Publishers for this review. This is my honest opinion of the book."
