Resumen del Editor

Sometimes love is the simplest choice of all.

Still reeling from her husband’s untimely death, Deborah Robinson needs a fresh start. So she decides to pack up her family, box up her bookstore, and return to her grandmother’s ancestral home on Cavanaugh Island. The charming town of Sanctuary Cove holds happy memories for Deborah, and, after she spies a gorgeous stranger in the local bakery, it promises the possibility for a bright new future.

Dr. Asa Monroe is at a crossroads. Ever since the loss of his family, he has been traveling from one town to another on a quest for faith and meaning. When he meets Deborah, the beautiful bookstore owner with the warm eyes and sunny smile, Asa believes he has finally found a reason to stay in one place.

As friendship blossoms into romance, Deborah and Asa discover they may have a second chance at love. But small towns have big secrets. Before they can begin their new life together, the couple must confront a challenge they never expected.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"I truly and thoroughly enjoyed the book. I found it a wonderful, warm, intriguing romance and was happy to find a new author to read." (Jill Shalvis, New York Times best-selling author of Simply Irresistible)

"A gentle romance focused on second chances…. Soaked in an old-fashioned feel, [this book] will appeal to readers looking for gentle, inexplicit romance." ( Publishers Weekly)

"Carolina low-country comfort food, a community of people who care, and a wonderfully emotional love story. Who could ask for more? Sanctuary Cove is the kind of place you visit and never want to leave." (Hope Ramsay, best-selling author of Welcome to Last Chance)

This was a refreshing romance. Somewhat predictable and not very engaging.. I felt like the book was well written, but not very interesting.

Predictable

Would you listen to another book narrated by Nicole Small?

Yes. She is the only reason I bought this novel.

No!

Any additional comments?

Okay read

struggled to read it. This book was a little slow for me. However it did pick up towards the end.

Baby makes five

Loved closeness with Deb and her children, courtship was best part and email Dr. Monroe.

Wonderful

This book was a great read. I also read Angels landing. Nicole Small's narration is what made the characters come alive. I think if there are future books, she should continue to narrate the series!!!!!

Love and life after the death of love & life

Delightful!!!
I picked the book because of the narrator and it's a series. It was slow and fast at the same time. I know you can fall in love quick, but marriage and the teen kids approve. It's a beautiful yet unbelievable collection of events. Im intrigued and opting to read the next installment.

Wonderful book!

I chose this book based on the cover photo and title and am very pleased that it was so good. I didn’t want it to end.

Great For Work

Such a beautiful story of two broken hearts becoming one. I enjoyed listening while at work.

Kind of slow

I really like Alers' writing. However, I found myself wanting the story to pick up or end quickly. It's not necessarily a terrible tale of the two main characters who both lost people in their lives, it just lacked something.

Awesome story of you can love again!

Sometimes we forget you can love again. After losing a spouse and you still have live to give. Don't give up on lovem
