Tracy Campbell never wanted to leave Hope Harbor, Oregon, or the idyllic three-generation cranberry farm where she grew up. But life--and love--altered her plans. When tragedy strikes and changes her plans yet again, she finds herself back in her hometown with a floundering farm to run and a heartbreaking secret. Romance is not on her agenda. Nor is it on Michael Hunter's. The visitor from Chicago has daunting secrets of his own. But when Tracy recruits him to help save a struggling charitable organization, the winds of change begin to sweep through Hope Harbor, bringing healing, hope, and love to countless lives--including their own.
Fan favorite Irene Hannon brings a whole new cast of characters to life in a charming Oregon seaside village. Emotional and heartwarming, this story invites readers to come home to Hope Harbor, where love and hope bloom--and hearts heal.
My Review:
I enjoyed reading this newest contemporary Christian romance book by Irene Hannon. It held my attention from the beginning even though it is a little slower pace. Michael and Tracy have both loved before and experienced loss. The romance developed between them naturally. There was a secondary plot involving Michael's landlady. She was estranged from her only son and as the book goes on warms up. The author did a good job on developing the characters and plot. They are unique and interesting. By the end of the book I loved the characters and wanted to visit Hope Harbor, Oregon. The conclusion was satisfying and fit the book. Highly Recommended.
