About Quilts of Love: Quilts tell stories of love and loss, hope and faith, tradition and new beginnings. The Quilts of Love series focuses on the women who quilted all of these things into their family histories. A new book releases each month and features contemporary and historical romances as well as women's fiction and the occasional light mystery. You will be drawn into the endearing characters of this series and be touched by their stories.
About the book:
A quilt holds the secret to a killer still at large---and who his next victim will be.
Following an attack that killed her mother and stole her ability to speak, 21-year-old Sophia Montgomery has no choice but to accept her estranged grandmother's offer to return to their family home. Although detective Julian Frazier is working hard on the case, Sophia unknowingly frustrates him because her inability to speak thwarts her eyewitness evidence. The fact that Julian is undeniably attracted to Sophia doesn't help either, so Julian hides his feelings as concern for a trauma victim and focuses instead on finding the killer.
Little do they know, the clues to solving the case may be right in front of them, displayed in Sophia's mother's "special" quilt design. Who will realize the secret Sophia's unwittingly been hiding in plain sight? When the truth comes to light, will Sophia find her voice again? Or will the murderer---still at large---silence her forever?

My Review:
I loved Robin Caroll's Quilts of Love novel, "Hidden in the Stars," as the storyline was so engrossing and the characters were so loveable and real. Right from the start I was thinking what could have been the cause for this attack on Sophia and her mother and I was kept guessing until the very end! There are so many pieces to this story and so many relationships as Sophia discovers that her mother had hidden things from her and lied to her throughout the year, which is first discovered when Sophia's grandmother shows up at the hospital. Charlie is an amazing character as well and I loved her story being woven into this as she has a history with Julian and becomes an instant friend to Sophia offering not only help through lip reading, but spiritual and emotional help as well. Julian is struggling with things from his past as well and is struggling with his feelings toward God and Sophia. This is such a wonderful story of healing on so many levels and one that will hold your attention from the very first page to the last.
