Synopsis

Preslaysa Williams, author of the “emotionally stirring debut” A Lowcountry Bride (Oprah Daily), returns to the Lowcountry with a heartwarming story about a second chance romance.
It was supposed to be the happiest day of Jaslene Simmons’ life, the day she’d say “I do” to Marcus Clark. But when her sister dies in a tragic accident everything changes—including her once rosy future with Marcus. Jaslene instead pours all of her energy into caring for her now-motherless niece and running the wedding planning company she and her sister had built, wanting to honor her sister’s dream even if she has to sacrifice her own.As an archivist at Charleston’s Black history museum, Marcus shines a light on the stories of forgotten people. Researching history is better than dealing with his own heartache—and the guilt he has over the role he may have inadvertently played in the death of Jaslene’s sister.Jaslene never thought she’d cross paths with Marcus again, but her need for an affordable office space brings her to the museum which is faced with the threat of closure. As they work together to save it, their buried feelings slowly reignite. They soon realize there is still room in their hearts for love...if only they can overcome their past.

This is my first time reading a book by Preslaysa Williams.

Goodreads review by Sara on August 14, 2022

'A Sweet Lowcountry Proposal' is the follow up to 'A Lowcountry Bride", which I read several years ago. I was fascinated by the premise of Jaslene and Marcus losing their HEA from the first book and what could bring them back together again. I will admit that this book was not what I was expecting,......more

I am saddened to say that I didn’t love this as much as ‘A Lowcountry Bride’, which I also had the arc for. This isn’t a “traditional” romance. It was more about grief, Christianity, an African American museums struggle with funding, an enslaved couple from the past and planning for a side character......more
