Synopsis
Welcome to Whiterock, Oregon, where peculiar happenings are taken for granted. Whiterock is where Sally Carruthers is stuck, nursing a dying father. She used to have a career and a bright future. Now all she has is an old house and a mending and alterations business that barely brings in pocket change. Whiterock is where Gus Loring seeks forgetfulness. To find it, he'd have to do the impossible and forgive himself. Once he was a successful engineer, on the fast track to fame and fortune. Now he delivers laundry to dreary towns, until it's time for him to run again. Whiterock is where people are from, because there's nothing left to hold them there. Every year more of the stores on Main Street close, and every year more of its young people leave, to find their fortunes somewhere else. Yet somehow it endures. So perhaps there's something more to Whiterock than dusty streets, shabby buildings, and discouraged residents, because everything changes when Gus and Sally find each other. The future once again holds hope and promise. Or does it?

July 12, 2009: Whiterock, Oregon reminds me of the small town in Kentucky where I live. There is very little to encourage people to stay. There are few businesses; they just cannot survive. Yet the town does survive. Everyone knows everyone else and the people are friendly. Despite big dreams Sally stays in Whiterock to care for her aging and ailing father. She continues to dream despite her circumstances. Gus is a former executive. A family tragedy leaves him feeling guilty. When he meets Sally there is an instant attraction. It is as though they are meant to be together.
As their passion and affections grow so does the town. It is as though the town is thriving on the love that is blossoming between Sally and Gus. I like this story. The plot is original, interesting and entertaining. There are twists and turns. I will be watching for more books by Judith B Glad.
