The Scent of Gardenias by Lorraine Haas – Review by Cindy Mayberry

The Scent of Gardenias by Lorraine Haas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Margaret Rose wants to be more than her mother. She wants independence, and she just might be strong enough to get it. This historical retelling will take you back to WWII. Living in poverty and having an domineering father. Makes Margaret Rose try that much harder. What lies ahead for her and where she ends up you will need to read this powerful woman’s story. I don’t usually read historical books, but this one caught my interest. I am so pleased with this story and the author who wrote it. This story is well written and easy to follow. For some, it may bring up memories of those days and the loss that was experienced. Be prepared to ride the emotional rollercoaster. Remember to bring tissues, chocolate, and your drink of choice as you will be here for a while.
