About this ebook

Blockbuster New Historical Series From Acclaimed Author Tamera Alexander

To create something that will last is Claire Laurent's most fervent desire as an artist. It's also her greatest weakness. When her fraud of a father deals her an unexpected hand, Claire is forced to flee from New Orleans to Nashville, only a year after the War Between the States has ended. Claire's path collides with that of Sutton Monroe, and she considers him a godsend for not turning her in to the authorities. But when they meet again and he refuses to come to her aid, she realizes she's sorely misjudged the man. Trading an unwanted destiny for an unknown future, Claire finds herself in the middle of Nashville's elite society and believes her dream of creating a lasting impression in the world of art may finally be within reach.

All that Sutton Monroe holds dear lies in ruin. He's determined to reclaim his heritage and to make the men who murdered his father pay. But what he discovers on his quest for vengeance reveals a truth that may cost him more than he ever imagined.

Set at Nashville's historical Belmont Mansion, a stunning antebellum manor built by Mrs. Adelicia Acklen, the richest woman in America in the 1860s, A Lasting Impression showcases the deep, poignant, unforgettable characters that set Tamera's stories apart and provides an inspiring love story that will capture readers' hearts and leave them eager for more.

This is the first book in the Belmont Mansion Series. All three Belmont Mansion novels are complete stories and are therefore stand alone books. I read them out of order because I was anxious to read A Note Yet Unsung. This just made me want to go back and read parts of the other two a second time. Just to get my dates and characters straight in my mind. This was not a problem because I enjoyed all three so much. Tamera has such a way of developing her characters. You just want to know them or have them as a best friend. I was so interested in finding out what more I could about the real Belmont Mansion in Nashville, Tennessee, I did some research as soon as I put Tamera's book down. She takes real people or facts from history and weaves a wonderful interesting story. I love the way the author brings hope out of the darkness. She has such a wonderful way of using her words. I loved everything about this complete Belmont Mansion Series. I would highly recommend reading it
