after seven, can't wait for book 8

I've read all Debbie Macomber's Cedar Cross novels and after six books,the series usually falls stale, but that isn't the case with book seven. Bobby Polgar's wife is threatened with death if her husband competes in theupcoming chess match. But the main storyline is only skimming the surface. As usual, the side plots are well drawn out and add spice to the series and makes you wait for book 8.

AS ALWAYS DEBBIE MACOMBER JUST BRINGS A STORY TO LIFE GREAT READ, AS ALL HER BOOKS ARE. LOVED ALL OF THE CEDAR COVE BOOKS AND I'VE READ EVERY ONE SO FAR. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT ONE. HOPE YOU ENJOY IT TOO.

The Soap Opera Continues With Seventh Cedar Cove Book

I love Debbie Macomber's Cedar Cove series. Reading each book is like sitting down to cake and coffee with friends and catching up on the town gossip. Debbie has created an idyllic little town and peopled it with people you can come to truly care about. Get involved with their problems, agonize over their dilemmas, and delight in their triumphs as their most intimate stories captivate your imagination. The home of Teri and Bobby Polgar is the focal point of this addition to the series. As with all Cedar Cove books, the home is pictured on the cover, and Debbie tells us in her intro that this particular home just happens to be the one she shares with her real-life hubby. The characters you have grown to love in previous entries are all moving forward. Olivia and Jack face a problem they never anticipated, Grace adjusts to married life and deals with her embarrassing past, Maryellen gets great news, Rachel finds herself in a troubling triangle, Sheriff Troy Davis reacquaints himself with a past love his daughter will not abide, and Linnette McAfee takes her broken heart and runs away. A dangerous kidnapping involves several residents and a cliffhanger ending sets the stage for Dave and Emily Flemming to share their story at 8 Sandpiper Way with readers in September, 2008. If you like light romances with surprising twists and mysterious turns, you'll be charmed by this series and relish each new peek into the lives of the people of Cedar Cove.

Enjoyable!

Debbie Macomber has done it again, I just love re-visiting Cedar Cove. I can't wait for the next book to continue the story. While these books are a continuation, they also could be read as a stand alone.

Debbie Delivers Again !

If you love books that have a folksy, down home, what's happening in the neighborhood kind of feeling, then you'll love this series, including the newest addition - #7. Honestly, Debbie writes just as if you were sitting there sharing a coffee and she was filling you in on all the happenings in Cedar Cove. I don't know how she creates the intimacy she does, but honestly, you feel like one of the locals just catching up on the news. And there's a lot of good news. The local hairdresser, on her own too long, unintentionally snags the wealthy successful International chess champion, and the sweet girl-next-door finally gives up on Cedar Cove and its men and heads back to the city, leaving her family still on the island. The turns and twists that these girls experience and all the other convolutions that occur in Cedar Cove are shared in such a comfortable, easy way that you feel like you're sitting in the beauty shop hearing it all face to face. Debbie does a great job as usual on this entertaining book !
