The
House on Harbor Hill by Shelly Stratton
Published

This
was my second box from Once Upon a Book Club book subscription box. Another book
where the cover, the title, even the synopsis would not automatically draw me
in. The experience of the box though and the book itself was 4 stars!
So
downside to the box, it is a small company that has their issues with vendors.
The box per their site should have shipped out by the 17th but
several days later they were still waiting on the last gift to arrive. So if it
was my first box, and due to the high price, this would have been nerve
wracking and a little upsetting. That set aside though, the gift was worth the
wait.
The
House on Harbor Hill is told in present and past. It has a love story, murder
mystery, racial prejudice and domestic abuse. Delilah Grey is an outcast in her
small town, she takes in abused woman that are down on their luck and shelters
them until they can get back on their feet. Tracey is invited to be one of
those women. She is trying to escape a desperate situation with her two young
children in tow. As Delilah learns more about Tracey’s struggle, Tracey learns
more about Delilah and her dark past.
This
book flew past. I was interested and wanting to know both ladies stories and
wishing that they had happy endings. Reading as part of the Once Upon a Book
Club box just adds that extra special touch as you open the gifts. Check out my
