Book Overview
Ninety years ago, Millie Sullivan's great-grandmother was a guest at oil tycoon Howard Dawkins' palatial estate on the shore of St. Simons Island, Georgia. Now, Millie plays a 1920s-era guest during tours of the same manor. But when her grandmother suggests that there is a lost diary containing the location of a hidden treasure on the estate, along with the true identity of Millie's great-grandfather, Millie sets out to find the truth of her heritage--and the fortune that might be hers. When security guard Ben Thornton discovers her snooping in the estate's private library, he threatens to have her fired. But her story seems almost too ludicrous to be fiction, and her offer to split the treasure is too tempting to pass up . . .Get ready for a romantic escapade through dark halls and dusty corners that will have you holding your breath and sighing with delight as two charming characters get caught up in the adventure of uncovering the past and finding their way to an unexpected future.

A Treasure Hunt
Published by Kim Potter , 6 years ago
A Sparkle of Silver by Liz Johnson is the first book in her Georgia Coast Romance series. In the 1920’s Millie’s great grandmother was a guest at the Chatateau owned by oil-tycoon Howard Dawkins and located on the shore of St. Simon Island, Georgia. Now, ninety years later Millie is part of a re-creation of that era for the historical society. When her grandmother mentions a hidden treasure and a missing journal, Millie begins her own search. I really enjoyed the journal entries that gave us a historical view of the hotel and a glimpse of Millie’s great grandmother, Ruth. It was like we had two different stories in one. I thought the story started a little slow but the ending more than made up for it. I stayed up way too late to finish this book. I kept turning the pages to find out what happened next.
I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
