I am reviewing a copy of She Lost Her Muse through Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA):

Poppy feels as if she nobody without Meagan, her best friend since childhood.

They are college roommates, both majoring in fine arts with high aspirations of becoming successful artists. But when Poppy is suspended a semester before graduating her world is shattered.

Pastor Wayne, her controlling father sends her away to live in her mother’s abandoned, soon to be condemned, homeplace while it’s being repaired. The same homeplace he’s forbidden his wife to visit, except for funerals, since they’ve been married.

Alone in a new town, in the rural mountains of North Carolina, Poppy struggles to begin again. She finally convinces her reserved, quiet Mother to share stories about her family’s past. She visits a nearby art gallery and develops a schoolgirl crush on the owner. She attends a local watercolor class, makes new artist friends and is dismayed by the instructor. She tells no one of her reoccurring dreams, but with the help of Liam, the town handyman, she begins to face issues leading to her own healing.

Will Poppy find a way to stop living in Meagan’s shadow, develop her own beliefs and accept her true muse hidden away in long-buried family secrets?

I give She Lost Her Muse five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
