The Cherry Harvest by Lucy Sanna

4.0

Author Sanna's novel, which deceptively appears to begin as a historical romance, is extremely well researched with believable, well-drawn characters. However, one of the basic premises of the book--that the family lacked food when living on a farm on the shores of Lake Michigan--rang a little false to me. Furthermore, Charlotte (the mother) seemed mentally ill from the very beginning of the book. Perhaps that was the intent of the author, but I found myself detesting her long before I had any real reason to.
Gripping plot and fascinating setting near Door County, Wisconsin.
