This is a heart-warming story about a unique heroine, a cast of quirky, lovable characters, and a roller-coaster journey through the historic towns and wineries of the Shenandoah Valley, the ruins and palazzos of Italy, the hallowed halls of Washington, D.C., and the raging rapids of the heart versus logic. Emotionally deep, witty, and informative, Merryhearth Manor & Me is an adventure that offers something for everyone.

Merryhearth Manor & Me, #1 in Contemporary Literature, #1 in Classic American Fiction, and #1 in Humor/Satire on Amazon Kindle in its first month.

Amanda Grayson had a happy marriage, a beautiful home, and a successful career-until she didn't. Starting over in her forties was the last thing she expected to be doing. That's when she discovers a once-grand historic house that takes on a talismanic power the moment she sees it. The nearly two-hundred-year-old, abandoned brick manor, surrounded by the crests of Virginia's old Blue Ridge Mountains, calls to her. It needs saving-and she wants to save it-but how?

That's also when she finds herself in the middle of an improbable attraction at work. As emotions evolve, Amanda realizes she is either in the safest relationship imaginable, or she has taken a course that could destabilize her career and what's left of her heart. Either way, she senses whatever is happening is key to helping her regain her devastated vivacity, but at what cost?

And, that's when a career-breaking project heats up, keeping her on the road and attracting unwanted attention from the highest levels of her federal agency. This unexpected twist leaves her balancing a tightrope of department politics, personal agendas, and turf guarding that threatens to destabilize her plans and her future. Can she control the chaos, or will it control her?

When you have everything to lose, including your heart, your job, your money . . . would you risk it all on a falling-down historic mansion? Merryhearth Manor & Me will have you answering this question and-just maybe-seeking an old house of your own!

Praise for this book

"Merryhearth Manor & Me combines the best elements of Under the Tuscan Sun and Eat, Pray, Love into a modern-day story that all women will relate to! With a thoroughly likable and relatable main character, I found Merryhearth Manor & Me hard to put down. This is a must-read for every woman in 2022." - C. S. Leonard, author, McBee Magic Saga Series

"I got swept away from the blue ridge mountains to a villa in Italy and more. I was an inadvertent student of historical restoration and rebirth. I'll be reading it over and over again to revisit this charming book." - Judee Canterbury, advanced copy editorial reviewer.

"I LOVED this book! It combined some of my own passions into a well-written novel (another of life's passions). I could hardly put it down. Only work and sleeping got in the way of my reading this book." - Tracy, BookSirens advanced review copy reader.
