A Southern Spring is a wholesome romance set on the Louisiana Bayou. Rosalie Primrose Patterson feels
blessed to lead a simple life. Blessed with great imagination, she has a passion for writing. Having sent
her proposal for a new story to various publishers, she is now anxiously awaiting their responses.
The last envelope is different. Instead of a rejection, it offers her a contract.
Her boyfriend Ashton has not popped the question yet, but he owns her heart. The obstacles they
must persevere demand great faith. The descriptions of the forces of nature are always richly sensual:
“The scent of dampness invaded along with the smells of murky caramel water, mud, earth, and mush.”
Just as sensual are the wholesome descriptions of love:
“She wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him to her, and he knew he was in love with the girl
he’d loved since grade school.”
In this wholesome romance, surviving the wildness of nature becomes a journey of love.
“She stood on the bayou and gazed as far as she could, hoping to see Ashton returning.”
Five stars
