A Girl's Guide To Moving On by Debbie Macomber - my review

A Girl's Guide to Moving On by Debbie Macomber is not your usual Mother-in-law/daughter-in-law story. I enjoyed reading Nichole and Leanne's stories as they move on from their cheating husbands (father and son) to start new lives. I had met Nichole when reading Last One Home, but A Girl's Guide To Moving On, is a great stand-alone book as well.

I enjoyed the story of how Nichole and Leanne deal with their exes, Jake and Sean, and their cheating ways. Also both still trying to control their lives even after divorce.  The new men, Rocco and Nicolai, that come into their lives, showing them how women should be treated.

I am a HUGE Debbie Macomber fan, and this one didn't disappoint me in the least. I highly recommend it to all Macomber fans or anyone wanting to read one of her books for the 1st time.
Look for this book on the bookshelves in February 2016

Silver Linings by Debbie Macomber - my review

Silver Linings: A Rose Harbor Novel by Debbie Macomber is an excellent read! Kept me on pins and needles, now I am anxiously waiting for the next book in this series!

So many surprises in this book, from seeing some of the characters of Starry Night put in an appearance, to meeting new characters to love and cheer on. I was excited when I saw and recognized them.  A heartwarming story full of love, forgiveness, and second chances, as we are taken back to Cedar Cove.

This is the 4th book in the Rose Harbor series, but could be read as a stand-alone, as the author does a fabulous job catching us up on what is happening. This series always leaves me wanting to visit this bed and breakfast in Cedar Cove (fictitious place).

Jo Marie is left heartbroken as handyman Mark leaves town.  Coco and Katie come to stay the weekend, as they plan on attending their 10 year high school reunion. Both Coco and Katie have special reasons, wrongs they would like to correct, for attending this reunion.

I am a HUGE Debbie Macomber fan and will be watching for the next book in this series. This is not one you want to miss reading, especially if you are a fan.

Last One Home by Debbie Macomber - my review

Last One Home by Debbie Macomber is an awesome stand-alone novel. As everyone knows, I am a huge Debbie Macomber fan, and she didn't disappoint me with this one. Starting with the gazebo on the cover that made me want it in my yard.

Cassie ran away from home at the age of 18 to marry Duke. A man who quickly becomes abusive, cutting Cassie off from her family. Including her two sisters, Karen and Nicole, who were once all three incredibly close.

Cassie eventually ends her difficult marriage and moves to Seattle with her daughter, Amiee. Both sisters Karen and Nicole have their own problems as well. After receiving a letter from Karen, it leads to a possible reunion of the sisters. Things start looking up for Cassie and Amiee.

A story of forgiveness, compassion and new starts.

Starry Night by Debbie Macomber - my review

Starry Night by Debbie Macomber is an awesome book that will leave you wanting to see an Alaskan star-filled sky with the love of your life. I am a big fan of Debbie Macomber novels and nothing beats a great Christmas story.

Carrie is bored writing the same stories about the same social events and wants the chance to write something different. She jumps at the chance to find the author of the book Alone, Finn Dalton. The catch is, that no-one has been able to find him or get an interview with him.
Carrie takes on the challenge and finds herself in Alaska, meeting a dog by the name of Hennessy, as well as the elusive Finn. Two people as different as night and day, a fun-filled story is sure to follow.

A heart-warming Christmas story to get you into the mood. The perfect Christmas book to curl up with a cup of hot chocolate or coffee and enjoy.

I received a free copy of this book from LibraryThing in exchange for my honest review rather it be good or bad. Thank you.    

Mr Miracle by Debbie Macomber - my review

Mr Miracle by Debbie Macomber is a warmhearted Christmas book that  introduces Harry Mills, an angel that is sent to earth to help Addie straighten out her life and find love. Harry is so sure that he can handle everything on his own and he doesn't want to ask for help. Not even from his mentor, Celeste, another angel.  Little does he know he will be experiencing feelings, as humans do, for the first time.

Harry is teaching a literature class at college, with some interesting students, one of which is Addie who has returned home after 6 years. She volunteers to help out Erich, who has broken both wrists in a accident, so his mother who is a widow can go on a pre-planned cruise with Addie's mother who is also recently widowed. Addie and Erich have a past where she was heartbroken, how can she ever stand to be around him to help him out?  Then there is Andrew the war vet with his service dog Tommy, the ex-con Danny who is trying to make a new life after getting out of prison, Michelle the french teacher, along with some more colorful characters. This book is a short heart-warming feel-good Christmas story about making changes in life, finding love, happiness, and friendship.

I highly recommend this book.

Love Letters by Debbie Macomber - my review

Love Letters by Debbie Macomber is the 3rd in the Rose Harbor series and set in Cedar Cove. I had previously read the others in this series as well as the Cedar Cove series being a huge Debbie Macomber fan. But this would be good as a stand alone book too, as the stories of each visiting guest are new with each book.

Jo Marie Rose owner of the Rose Harbor Inn, a bed and breakfast is still grieving over the lose of her husband after 2 years. But she is becoming very close and extremely curious about the handyman Mark Taylor.

Her guests include Maggie and Roy Porter who are are visiting the inn for their first vacation alone since the birth of the their two sons. They are trying to renew their marriage.

The next guest is Ellie Reynolds, a young girl who has come to meet Tom a young man she has met and fell in love with through the internet. He also has a surprise in store for her.

I love visiting with Jo Marie, Rover, and Mark at Rose Harbor Inn. A magical healing place where visitors of Cedar Cove drop in from time to time. I look forward to the next book and what will happen at the B&B.
