Masterpiece Marriage-Quilts of Love series-by Gina Welborn

I found “Masterpiece Marriage” a delightful “Quilts of Love” read.

Mary comes to America to continue her education as a woman scientist and meets textile mill owner Zenus while visiting his Aunt Priscilla. They both need Aunt Priscilla’s help and try to work together, but in the end the realize they need to trust in God more and in his timing.

This wasn’t one of my favorite Quilts of Love books, but it was well written and had a fairly interesting story line.

About Quilts of Love:

A new book releases each month and features contemporary and historical romances as well as women’s fiction and the occasional light mystery. You will be drawn into the endearing characters of this series and be touched by their stories.
