Description:Since the tragic death of her parents, grief is Ruth Dennison’s constant companion. Concern for her second grade students and interest in Horse, the family cat, help her cope with loneliness and depression. Choosing ‘Spring Break’ to dispose of her parents’ belongings, she begins a cleaning spree which includes her garage. Ruth’s “Edsel for sale” advertisement lures Wyndom Winters, the widowed father of her troubled student, Jason. Wyndom’s purchase of the Edsel wagon, and Ruth’s concern for Jason, unite them in a campaign to discover the reason for the child’s sudden change in classroom behavior. Being linked together in a quest leads them on an adventure filled with laughter, sorrow, secrets, and ultimately, to a final understanding. Ruth Fever is a blend of mystery and romance with enough action to interest and entertain readers. |
Reviews:"A caring teacher, a troubled student, and a confused father are drawn together in a series of interesting events centering around the sale of a classic Edsel car. The story could be one that occurs in our neighborhood for the characters are so alive and real we identify with them immediately. At unexpected times, we are charmed by the clarity and flow of the lyrical narrative of the novel. Ruth Fever is a heartwarming story sure to hold attention to the last satisfying page! Beverly J. Scott, is a wonderful new talent! Her books are sure winners with an appeal to a wide readership." ~ Evelyn Horan - author and Amazon reviewer "Beverly Scott has managed to produce another wonderful book that will please readers. Ruth Fever is a lovely story that touched my heart and made me cheer for two people, and a little boy, so deserving of love. Ruth Dennison is a school teacher. She has lost her parents in a car accident and she is grieving. Ruth is a good woman, and she seeks the strength to forgive the drunk driver who took her beloved parents from her. To mask her depression and loneliness, Ruth gives all she has to her students, especially eight-year-old Jason Winters who has suddenly changed in behavior. Ruth meets Wyndom Winters, Jason's father, a widower, who catches `Ruth Fever'. Together they work to bring back to Jason the happiness he once knew. Ruth Fever is a heartwarming story of love and forgiveness, the courage to go on when you have lost someone you love and to love the ones that follow. It is a thoroughly enjoyable read. This is a good book for book discussion groups. I highly recommend it." ~ R. Gerlach, Amazon reviewer
