The Blue Dragon is a modern historical romance, set in 2006.
Gravely wounded in Afghanistan, Samantha Collins returns to Canada to discover a previously unknown relative has died and made her heir to the family estate. The bequest consists of a century-old farmhouse, the land surrounding it, and a chubby, independent orange tabby with a mind of his own.
Alone, having given up on love, marriage, and children, facing a grim future, Sam opts to move into the house until she decides what to do with it, but when she opens the door, she gets more than she bargained for. Nobody mentioned Great-aunt Esther was a hoarder.
Following his divorce, Phil Austin returns to South Creek. An architect who prefers restoring old buildings to designing new ones, he’s intrigued to learn one of the area’s century-old houses may be for sale Picturing the house converted to an inn, Phil knocks on the door, but he gets more than he expected. The new owner is the woman he loved and lost fifteen years ago.
Stunned to find the only man she ever loved on her doorstep, Sam is carried away by his ideas for the house. Torn between hope and despair, she agrees to his business proposal. As they renew their friendship and sift through the trash and treasures Esther Cohen left behind, looking for the mysterious Blue Dragon she mentioned in her letter, Sam begins to think that her future may not be so grim after all. Can she find the courage to open her heart once more?
Sometimes, it takes an event in one’s own life to put things in perspective. After my father died, my mother went into a sharp mental and emotional decline, resulting in the need for her to be placed in a long-term care facility. This was at the onset of COVID 19, so that decision was a hard one to make. Among the things we had to do was empty the house and get it ready to sell. That’s when we discovered that Mom and Dad were tidy hoarders. What Sam finds inside the house is a mild exaggeration of what we dealt with. The saddest part is that, in my mother’s mind, the house was destroyed in a fire–it wasn’t, but all the things she prized she was convinced were lost forever.
