204 Rosewood Lane by Debbie Macomber

Love always finds a way in this heartwarming second installment in the Cedar Cove series

Judge Olivia Lockhart’s plate is full. Her hometown of Cedar Cove is the kind of community that’s always relied on each other for support, but lately it seems everybody needs somebody to lean on, especially Olivia’s best friend, Grace Sherman, whose husband disappeared six months prior. Thirty-five years together, then — just gone. Moving forward without closure is hardly ideal, but for librarian Grace, it may be time to start a new chapter.

For Olivia, helping her good friend start over is just the beginning. There are enough marriages, separations and babies being born in Cedar Cove to keep anyone on their toes. And when Olivia’s ex-husband makes it clear he wants her back, it throws a serious wrench in her on-again, off-again relationship with newspaper editor Jack Griffin. Sometimes the right path isn’t always clear, but finding the courage to follow your heart will lead you right where you belong.
