“A Southern Cinderella story with heart, soul, and humor. As sweet and tart as summer lemonade.”
—Christie Ridgway, USA Today bestselling author
A delightful new voice in Southern fiction, Lorelle Marinello makes a truly dazzling debut with Salting Roses—a novel that immediately places her in the esteemed company of Elinor Lipman, Loraine Despres, and Stephanie Gayle. In Salting Roses, a young woman abandoned as an infant on an Alabama porch is horrified to discover that she is the missing heiress to a vast Connecticut fortune—a birthright she wants desperately to reject in favor of her Peachtree Lane roots. A modern-day fairy tale with a Southern twist, rich in atmosphere and chock full of unforgettably eccentric characters, Lorelle Marinello’s novel is not to be missed.
Lorelle Marinello is a native of southern California. She makes her home with her husband and three children in an avocado grove in the mountains of San Diego. She received a B.A. in Fine Arts from San Diego State University. When she is not writing, she enjoys landscape gardening and researching her Southern genealogy.
“Lorelle Marinello crafts the kinds of characters readers want to befriend. Her stylish prose and deft hand at humor only add to the fun. Salting Roses, Lorelle Marinello’s delightful debut, is a Southern Cinderella story with heart, soul, and humor. As sweet and tart as summer lemonade, heroine Gracie Calloway will have readers rooting for her happy ending from the very first page.” - Christie Ridgway, USA Today bestselling author
