311 Pelican Court

Cedar Cove, Washington

Dear Reader,

One thing about Cedar Cove – people sure are interested in what other people are doing. Take me, for instance. Everybody in this town knows that my husband, Zach, and I recently got a divorce. Everybody also knows that Judge Olivia Lockhart decreed a pretty unusual custody arrangement. It won’t be the kids moving between my place and Zach’s. We’re the ones who’ll be going back and forth!

Olivia isn’t immune to gossip herself. Will she stay with Jack, the guy who runs our local paper, or will she get back with her ex? Inquiring minds want to know!

But the really big gossip has to do with the dead guy – the man who died at a local bed-and-breakfast. Who is he and why did he show up there in the middle of the night? Roy McAfee, our local private investigator, is absolutely determined to find out. I hope he does – and then I’ll let you know! See you soon . . .

From the moment I picked up this book, I could not put it down. After Olivia gave such a odd court order I just had to see how it worked. But you think why does not not happen in real life. Why don’t more judges tell the parents they have to move back and forth and the kids get to stay in their home the whole time. It seems like a good plan. The kids have to sometimes get sick of going back and forth. Through the whole book the kids are trying to hard to get Zack and Rosie back together. But will it work. Just when you think it will things take a turn.

All this time Olivia is in Love with Jack but will the love she shares for her ex husband be stronger then the love she has for Jack. Olivia almost seems destine to be back with her Ex husband. They have so much in common and just seem to make that perfect couple. Jack and Olivia on the other hand are total opposites. But you know that old saying, ” Opposites attached.” Is that saying going to keep Olivia and Jack together or will it force Olivia back into her ex husbands arms.

But the best part of the book is the whole mystery of who is this dead guy and where did he come from and what was he doing in Cedar Cove. I thought I had it all figured out. I was sure I knew who he was and what is was doing there. And then things take a big old twist and get all turned around.

Debbie has outdone herself with this book and truly kept me turning the pages for more.
