Debbie Macomberi meeliülendavas romaanis kohtuvad kaks eri vanuses naist. Nad on elanud läbi mitmeid raskusi ja leiavad mõlemad uue tee. Joan Sample'i elu pole selline, nagu ta ootas. Olles nüüd lesk ja lapsed kodust lahkunud, mõistab ta ka ise, et temast on omamoodi erak saanud. Aga pärast veel üht üksi veedetud sünnipäeva on ta lõpuks valmis kuulama oma õde, kes on palunud Joanil maailmaga taas suhtlema hakata. Emmie toel kogub Joan julgust astuda mõned kauaoodatud sammud. Ta palkab aedniku oma üle kasvanud aeda taltsutama, liitub leinatoetusgrupiga ja üürib isegi kohalikule üliõpilasele toa välja. Peagi hakkab Joan end taas veidi rohkem iseendana tundma. Linna teises otsas töötab Maggie Herbert hommikuti baristana, teenindades kannatamatuid kliente, ja tormab pärastlõunal õendusalastele loengutele. Ta elab koos oma alkohoolikust isaga, väldib tema tujukaid pahvatusi ja näeb vaeva, et majapidamisarveid maksta. Aga tema elu muutub helgemaks, kui ta Joani majas toa üürib. Oma uue olukorra ootamatus soojuses leiab Maggie lootusekiire paremaks eluks. Aga kas Maggie tärkav tõmme ühe oma lemmikkliendi vastu rikub harmoonia, mille ta alles hiljuti Joani juures leidis? Ja mida peaks Joan arvama salapärasest haljastajast, kes on ellu äratanud tema aia - mehest, kes näib samuti olevat kaotuse üle elanud? Kui Maggie ja Joan seisavad silmitsi raskete valikutega, leiavad nad sellest uuest sõprusest üllatavatel viisidel jõudu ja avastavad selle käigus, et "leitud perekond" on sageli parim võimalus.

TA EI SAA JACKIST LAHTI... Lorraine Dancy on äsja avastanud, et kõik, mida ta oma isa kohta teadis, on vale - alates faktist, et Thomas olevat aastaid tagasi surnud.

Kui ta läheb isa otsima, lavastatakse ta varguses süüdi ja teda asuvad jälitama tegelik varas, politsei ning kohalik kuritegevuse boss. Isa sõber Jack Keller nõustub teda põgenemisel aitama, kuigi Lorraine ei taha temasugusest mehest sõltuda. JA JACK EI SAA TEMAST LAHTI! Jack on igas mõttes just niisugune kahtlane tüüp, kelleks Lorraine teda peab - endine palgasõdur, töötas Deliverance Company agendina. Ta on ka ainus inimene, kes suudab Lorraine'i aidata turvalisse kohta pääsemisel. Kuid nende ees on mäslevad tormilained, kaasa arvatud vastastikune meeldimine, mida kumbki neist ei soovi. Külgetõmme, mis on sama riskantne kui tugev - neile mõlemale. Mida varem Jack Lorraine'il koju jõuda aitab, seda parem!

Õnneks on mehe kaheteistaastane tütar Heather võtnud sihiks jagada isale teadmisi romantikast. Sest tüdruk on pannud silma peale Sherryle, naisele, kes on ta isa jaoks "justkui loodud". Sherry avastab, et Texase mehed on tõesti omaette nähtus. Ta on ilmselgelt Codyst sisse võetud - tegelikult pagana lähedal armumisele -, kuid igal juhul kuluks kõigepealt ära pisut romantikat!

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber comes the first book in a series set in the beloved Pacific Northwest town of Cedar Cove. Jo Marie Rose first arrives in Cedar Cove seeking a fresh start. A young widow coping with the death of her husband, she purchases a local bed-and-breakfast--the newly christened Rose Harbor Inn--ready to begin her life anew. Her first guest is Joshua Weaver, who has come home to care for his ailing stepfather. The two have never seen eye to eye, and Joshua has little hope that they can reconcile their differences. Jo Marie's other guest is Abby Kincaid, who has returned to Cedar Cove to attend her brother's wedding. Back for the first time in twenty years, she almost wishes she hadn't come, the picturesque town harboring painful memories. And as Abby and Joshua try to heal from their pasts, and Jo Marie dreams of the possibilities before her, they all realize that life moves in only one direction--forward.
