Another Great Sweet Magnolia Book

So nice to see another book in the Sweet Magnolia series. Can't wait for the rest

Good 'ol Southern Comfort Read

Home in Carolina A nice, homey story with plenty of heart-tugging action. In the tradition of Debbie Macomber, this book is guaranteed to give a quiet, fireside read. Cherryl Woods has delivered a tale of love lost and regained, with all the stops in between. Her prose is certain to delight fans of sweet romance. This reader is determined to read every book she comes out with. When one man, raising his child alone, returns to Serenity North Carolina to recuperate from his sports injuries, he is faced with the woman he left behind. Torn between his desire for her and his need to see his child has the best life possible, he fumbles through a would-be courtship with Annie. Annie, struggling with her own demons when she is faced with the man she once loved, fights her desire for him, and faces yet another battle with her anorexia. Not sure if she can handle the daily reminder of his infidelity, she wants desperately to be a part of his life, and the mother of the small, engaging boy who is his son. Highly Recommended

Somewhat disappointing, but still enjoyed it.

I was kinda hoping for more with this new book. Annie & Ty's characters were disappointing, I was looking for more depth. But, I still enjoyed the book and look forward to the next Sheryl Woods book. Sheryl always writes a good story, some are just better than others.

pleasant second chance at love romance

Sports injury therapist Annie Sullivan is eating breakfast at her mom's restaurant in Serenity, South Carolina when the newspaper states that Star braves pitcher Ty Townsend is on Injury Reserve following surgery to his shoulder after suffering a potential career ending injury. He is back in Serenity to heal with home cooking, which makes Annie unhappy as they were seeing one another until he betrayed her with a sports groupie Dee-Dee. Ty knows he screwed up when he could not resist the seductive offer, but wants a second chance with Annie. However, the proof of his transgression is his three years old son Trevor who he is has solo custody of and refuses to give up his child even for Annie. As Ty tries to earn a second chance, Dee-Dee arrives in Serenity willing to use Trevor as an extortionist ploy to get what she wants. The latest Serenity Sweet Magnolias romance (See Sweet Tea at Magnolias) is a pleasant second chance at love romance starring a warm cast filled with southern charm. Although everyone involved proclaims what is best for Trevor is what they want, each of the adults except for Dee-Dee's thought provoking BF and Annie's sandwiched mom come across selfish. Still readers will enjoy dining at Helen's restaurant in serenity where sweet ice tea is served to drink. Harriet Klausner
