Bellevere House — Sarah Scheele

Faye Powell couldn't be happier. Coming from an underprivileged background, she's been lucky to move in with her uncle, a wealthy banker. Now she's in the swing of daily life with his exuberant children, including handsome Ed, the child of her uncle's first marriage. But trouble comes calling when her cousin Myrtle makes a questionable engagement and new friends start to pour in around them. Who are these Carters--they seem charming--and this young man whose dad is a radio producer? Rental schemes, a mysterious British journalist, trips to the beach, and a lovable uncle who's clueless about the chaos that surrounds him. Before she knows it, Faye is in over her head at scenic, deceptively peaceful Bellevere House.
