Synopsis

The life she’s designing may not be the life she’s meant to live

Audrey Needham, Bay Area interior designer to the rich and pretentious, is already on thin ice with her impossible-to-please boss when her great-aunt Daisy asks for support as her husband descends into Alzheimer’s. Now Audrey is risking the career she worked hard to build as she returns to Charity Falls, Oregon.

Her feelings toward the idyllic small town are … complicated. While she has many good memories of her childhood summers there, Charity Falls is also the place her father was killed in a tragic fire at the Sugar Pine Inn thirteen years ago.

Despite Audrey’s intent to avoid emotional entanglement, something should be done about the deteriorating inn. A local girl with an incarcerated father needs a friend. And handsome local do-gooder Cade Carter is coloring Audrey all shades of uncertain. The pull of home is hard to resist.

“Kit has a winsome way of using words to paint heart-touching images. A lovely story!”—Robin Jones Gunn, bestselling author of Tea with Elephants

I received a copy for review purposes; all opinions are honest and mine alone. It’s taken me a few days to think about this book before I could write the review. It’s a first book and I want to be fair to new author, Kit Tosello. She has a folksy style and used the very popular dual POV technique to......more

Kit Tosello brings a story full of vivid descriptions of the small town of Charity Falls, Oregon. I enjoyed the faith components and deeper themes of family, love, and forgiveness.

Goodreads review by (Katie) Paperbacks on December 10, 2024

I think this was the perfect time of year for me to pick this story up. I know, I know it's not set during winter. But the whole story had a sweet Hallmark romance story feel surrounding it. I was really in the mood for those types of stories, and this one was a really good one. I loved the sweet sto......more
