In this enchanting novel set at Cedar Coveâs cozy Rose Harbor Inn, Debbie Macomber celebrates the power of loveâand a well-timed love letterâto inspire hope and mend a broken heart.
Summer is a busy season at the inn, so proprietor Jo Marie Rose and handyman Mark Taylor have spent a lot of time together keeping the property running. Despite some folksâ good-natured claims to the contrary, Jo Marie insists that Mark is only a friend. However, she seems to be thinking about this particular friend a great deal lately. Jo Marie knows surprisingly little about Markâs life, due in no small part to his refusal to discuss it. Sheâs determined to learn more about his past, but first she must face her ownâand welcome three visitors who, like her, are setting out on new paths.
Twenty-three-year-old Ellie Reynolds is taking a leap of faith. Sheâs come to Cedar Cove to meet Tom, a man sheâs been corresponding with for months, and with whom she might even be falling in love. Ellieâs overprotective mother disapproves of her trip, but Ellie is determined to spread her wings.
Maggie and Roy Porter are next to arrive at the inn. They are taking their first vacation alone since their children were born. In the wake of past mistakes, they hope to rekindle the spark in their marriageâand to win back each otherâs trust. But Maggie must make one last confession that could forever tear them apart.
For each of these characters, it will ultimately be a moment when someone wore their heart on their sleeveâand took pen to paperâthat makes all the difference. Debbie Macomberâs moving novel reveals the courage it takes to be vulnerable, accepting, and open to love.

Prolific author Macomberâs mastery of womenâs fiction is evident in her latest (following Blossom Street Brides). Jo Marie Rose is the proprietor of Rose Harbor Inn, a bed-and-breakfast in Cedar Cove, Wash. Jo Marie has been taking solace in her work at the Inn since her husband died two years ago. Maggie and Roy Porter are planning an anniversary weekend at Rose Harbor, to be paid for by Royâs parents. Sheltered young Eleanor âEllieâ Reynolds also reserves a room, only to cancel and then rebook her reservation. While preparing for the weekend, Jo Marie tries to learn something about her gruff handyman Mark Taylorâs past. But after meeting her guests, she realizes that satisfying her curiosity will be the least of her worries. Ellie is meeting a man against her motherâs wishes, and Roy Porter doesnât appear to be enjoying his âidyllicâ getaway. Macomber breathes life into each plotline, carefully intertwining her charactersâ stories to ensure that none of them overshadow the others. Yet it is her ability to capture different facets of emotion which will entrance fans and newcomers alike. Agent: Theresa Park, Park Literary Group.
