He'd come to Eden for peace and quiet in the laid back town. However now he's ready for a change.

One that I enjoyed immensely and one that moved me as well. I highly recommend this one.

Lyn Scores A Hat Trick

To borrow a hockey term, Lyn Cote has scored three winning goals in a row with her third and latest novel, Hope's Garden. If possible, this author just keeps getting better. I've been a fan since her first release, Never Alone. I enjoyed the setting and the plot. Lyn really shines when it comes to characterization. In Hope's Garden she creates unforgetable characters. The quirky brother, Harry, the domineering mother, and Catherine, the heroine, are all memorable. Catherine's growth and confidence as a woman, were a highlight for this reader. It set this novel heads above the usual romance genre. I'm looking forward to Lyn's next release.
