You've heard the saying, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." For the main character, Tracey Woods, there are no truer words except in June in Winter, by Patricia Ann Phillips; there is no one for Tracey to bestow her fury on. Tracey Wood has planned a celebration for her third wedding anniversary with her husband and family. As they wait for his return from a business trip, she receives a devastating phone call informing her that her husband Donald has been in an automobile accident. She arrives at the hospital only to learn that Donald is dead, along with her husband's mistress, Sharon. Mistaken for Donald's daughter by Sharon's brother Dr. Travis Howard, as he extends his condolences and says how much in love Donald and Sharon were. This information turned Tracey's world upside down. She is forced to question everything she knew and believed regarding her marriage. Tracey has difficulty dealing with her husband's death. It's even harder for her to accept that he was unfaithful to her. She buries herself in her work and in helping family and friends with their lives she neglects to have any kind of life of her own outside of work. Tracey catches a glimpse of Dr. Howard at Donald's funeral and afterwards pays her a visit to apologize for his actions at the hospital. He becomes smitten with Tracey, but she is reluctant to become involved with him because of his sister. Will Tracey be able to overcome the obstacle that Donald and Sharon created? Or will this mountain prove too big for Tracey and Travis to climb to find love and happiness?This story is not your typical predictable romance story. It is filled with excellent secondary characters and sub-plots that add spice to the mix. Through Tracey's sister, Robin and the fatal attraction ordeal, suspense and blackmail is added to further pique your interest. Aunt Flora adds her words of wisdom. June in Winter was a very enjoyable read and I think romance readers will find this book worthwhile. I look forward to other works by this author.Readincolor ReviewersVanessa A. Johnson

This moving novel, set in modern Los Angeles, details an eventful year in the life of a young woman named Tracey and her close friends and family. It includes surprising plot twists, very likeable characters, and even some characters that we love to hate! The novel illustrates the importance of family and friends in overcoming adversity and in dealing with the consequences of the choices that we make in life. Although you may find this book under the African American Fiction section, I feel that it speaks equally well to women of all races. I highly recommend this book!

This book should be read by every woman who has lost a love one and simply choose to love again. This book is so very inspirational in that it makes you laugh, saddened, hopeful, and finally victorious. Patricia Ann Phillips puts out a winner each time. I would urge anyone to read this book and know that you are not alone-Things happen. It encourages you to keep moving on, for love has no season.
