My Review:
I really love to read books in a series so I jumped at the chance when this one came across my email.
I immediately felt such compassion for the heroine, Lee, and all the she had to endure from day one. Losing her husband, finding out about his secret life and the debt that he'd left her with. How does one even deal with that, thinking you knew someone only to lose them then find out such madness during your grieving. Add to that finding out that she's pregnant and I wanted to jump into the story and help this poor woman out. Thank goodness after fleeing from the debt collectors and such, she at least has a house to go to that's all hers. And how clever to go hide in the one place the loan sharks should have known to look in first but didn't, her home town.
I find it delightful to read books that put the characters in everyday real-life situations and Ms. Thompson portrayed Lee beautifully! I love her enthusiasm at taking over the Riversong to make it successful. A little charm and some great food goes a long way!
With much pleasure, I look forward to reading the next book in this series and highly recommend book 1 of the River Valley series.
