Author: Susan L. Tuttle

Genre: Women’s Fiction / Romance

In her search for a rare gem, will Everleigh end up uncovering the true treasure of her heart?

Personal care nurse Everleigh Wheaton knows it only takes a few well-placed lies to ruin a reputation. She’s experienced it time and time again. But there’s a silver lining to repeatedly proving herself: she’s confident and self-reliant.

When she loses yet another job and an enigmatic stranger offers her a potential way out, she’s game. After all, she loves a good mystery, and an invitation to visit the legendary Halstead Manor is irresistible. But she’s not about to let her guard down–especially with the other women who received the same invitation.

A strange voice on the phone tells them he’s gathered the three of them to work together as treasure hunters. The first assignment requires Everleigh to be a travelling nurse for retired FBI agent Gertrude Levine, who has one cold case she just can’t let go of: the Florentine diamond that went missing when the Austrian Empire fell.

With Everleigh’s keen ability to solve puzzles, Natalie Daughtry’s vast knowledge of history, and Brooke Sumner’s connections to the antiques world, they’re bound to track down the diamond. Except that Gertie’s nephew, Niles Butler, doesn’t trust Everleigh’s innocent act . . . even if he finds himself falling for her. Worse, Everleigh’s walls of self-preservation may doom the entire team.

Hints of real-life historical events combined with contemporary characters make this first book in the Treasures of Halstead Manor series a masterful blend of romance, mystery, and strong female friendships. Readers of authors like Denise Hunter and Nicole Deese who enjoy unfolding relationships and the organic discovery of God’s love will relish this new series.

My Thoughts on The Rare Jewel of Everleigh Wheaton

The Rare Jewel of Everleigh Wheaton is a wonderful novel that really makes you think but also draws you into the suspense as well.  I really enjoyed reading this book. I definitely became more invested in the characters the further into the book I got.  They all have issues within their own lives but are brought together for a combined purpose. 

Everleigh was someone I really could relate to.  She’s an introvert like me.  She’s also a nurse and so am I.  However, she enjoys caring for the elderly and being one-on-one with people.  I can relate!  

She gets hired in a very unique way to take care of an older woman who has lost sight.  Together they help each other heal.  While this is going on she’s also involved in a complicated issue with the woman she had been caring for and her son.  Can she keep the two apart?  Can she keep herself apart from the other women on the team?  They want to make friends but she finds relationships complicate matters.  And she has stuff from her past to hide that she doesn’t want to be judged by.

As they search for a missing jewel what they discover along the way is wonderful and fun.  I loved the book and the interactions between the characters.  They all learned and grew and I can’t wait to see what comes next!
