Great weekend read to relax!

While enjoying my three day weekend this past week, I had the pleasure of reading a very heartwarming story about two children who are left to fend for themselves after their father dies and mother runs off with her newest boyfriend.  This was a great way for me to relax and read something that did not have my heart pumping every second, but allowed me to enjoy myself.  I highly recommend this one to anyone who loves a great story with a happy ending.

Vardin Village by Maggie Spence is a heartwarming story about the Vardin family, which the town is named after, and their roots and secrets that they have kept for a number of years. When the youngest heir to the Vardin fortune is denied his rights as the heir of the family fortune, some of the former employees of his grandfather uncover secrets that were hidden and not found until several years after his death. George and Elenor's father was dead and their mother was more concerned with her drug habit than taking care of her kids and soon ran off, leaving the children to fend for themselves. This story focuses on the children's struggle to survive until the staff of his family's old mansion take them in and help them to uncover the last will and testament of their grandfather.

If you have a few days to just kick back and relax, this one is a great read that is not boring and tugs at the heartstrings.
