Kit Tosello’s Debut Novel, The Color of Home
Audrey Needham felt she had landed her dream job as an interior designer for the rich and famous. But every job has its drawbacks, and her demanding boss and the competitive nature of her profession are taking a toll.
When she receives a call for help from her Aunt Daisy, she reluctantly agrees to go to her. Although her aunt holds a special place in her heart, Charity Falls brings up suppressed memories of pain.
Shortly after her arrival, Audrey’s life is thrown into upheaval. She is given an indefinite leave from her job, and with no savings, she must accept a temporary job at Homer’s Hardware.
This position is a far cry from her preeminent role as a designer, but it also introduces her to a colorful cast of residents who begin to tug at her heart, including a lonely young girl and an attractive emergency medical pilot.
Audrey is also drawn to the deteriorating inn near her aunt’s home that holds so many of her childhood memories—both good and bad. She is determined to out the party responsible for the inn’s neglect. But doing so will only cause pain to a family she’s come to care about.
