Fireworks Over Toccoa by Jeffrey Stepakoff
** This is an ARC that I requested last year. I like to read a good love story every now and again and I think this one will hit the mark.
Synopsis:
Lily was married for just days before her husband was sent abroad to fight in WWII. Now, he and the other soldiers are returning, and the small town of Toccoa, Georgia plans a big celebration. But a handsome and kind Italian immigrant, responsible for the elaborate fireworks display the town commissioned captures Lily's heart and soul. Torn between duty to society and her husband, and a poor, passionate man who might be her only true love--Lily must choose between a love she never knew and a commitment she'd already made.


Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy: The Last Man in the World by Abigail Reynolds
** I won this from Serena at Savvy Verse & Wit.
Synopsis:
In this sexy Jane Austen sequel, Elizabeth Bennet accepts Mr. Darcy's first marriage proposal, answering the "What if...?" question fans everywhere have pondered

  16. Oh my goodness, I want to read Fireworks Over Toccoa so badly! That cover is pure magic, and the story sounds fantastic. Can't wait to see what you think!

    I have Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy: The Last Man In The World in my TBR stack -- I'll be reading it next! :) Sometimes I have to take a break in between Austen fiction lest I completely confuse and overwhelm myself with reasonably similar plotlines. And dialogue. Hope this one will be something fresh :)
