The French Gardener
by Santa Montefiore

Suggested by a NYOBG members:
This story is set on an English country estate, with
neglected gardens, stone bridge covered streams, and an
abandoned cottage complete with a scrapbook filled with secrets.
It reads more like contemporary fiction, or women's fiction,
rather than a typical romance...

Dead Until Dark
by Charlaine Harris

Suggested
by NYOBG members:
This book has been suggested by several members from the
very first meeting but never seemed to make the final
vote... until now. HBO's True Blood
series is based on these books, however Charlaine Harris
has a very witty writing style that is somewhat lost in
the TV adaptation. Her southern charm and quirky
characters are well developed. This series is a
fun mix of paranormal, romance, and mystery.
