SUMMARY:Romantic Fiction Book Group
DESCRIPTION:The Romantic Fiction Book Group meets monthly to discuss books 
 in the romantic fiction and women's fiction genres. Meetings are hybrid\, 
 in library and on Zoom.  Copies of the book are available at the library 
 reference desk and on Overdrive/Libby.\n\nFor the September meeting the 
 group is reading: \n\nHusbands and Lovers by Beatriz Williams \n\nNew 
 England\, 2022. Three years ago\, single mother Mallory Dunne received the 
 telephone call every parent dreads—her ten-year-old son\, Sam\, had been 
 airlifted from summer camp with acute poisoning from a toxic death cap 
 mushroom\, leaving him fighting for his life. Now\, searching for the donor 
 kidney that will give her son a chance for a normal life\, Mallory’s 
 forced to confront two harrowing secrets from her past: her mother’s 
 adoption from an infamous Irish orphanage in 1952\, and her own 
 all-consuming summer romance fourteen years earlier with her childhood best 
 friend\, Monk Adams— one of the world’s most beloved 
 singer-songwriters—a fairy tale cut short by a devastating 
 betrayal.\nCairo\, 1951. After suffering tragedy beyond comprehension in 
 the war\, Hungarian refugee Hannah Ainsworth has forged a respectable new 
 life for herself—marriage to a wealthy British diplomat with a coveted 
 posting in glamorous Cairo. But a fateful encounter with the enigmatic 
 manager of a hotel bristling with spies leads to a passionate affair that 
 will reawaken Hannah’s longing for everything she once lost. As 
 revolution simmers in the Egyptian streets\, a pregnant Hannah finds 
 herself snared in a game of intrigue between two men . . . and an act of 
 sacrifice that will echo down the generations.\n\n \n\nJoin Meeting:
