Springtime

Springtime in the Northwest

            It’s springtime here in the Northwest. Trees and flowers are blooming all around us. After a winter of rain and dark skies it’s uplifting to see the blue sky again. At the end of a challenging day it’s refreshing to go for a walk when it’s still light outside. 

            With the new season my family is going through a time of change. My mom has had some health issues which has caused her to move into a care center. For a woman who's always been strong and independent it is hard to see her so frail. During her stay in the hospital, she kept asking me to bring her books to read. 

           As I gathered books for her to read I thought of long ago when she gave me a romance book to read. I had graduated from high school yet I struggled to read. Reading those early Harlequins I discovered the joy of reading.
Little did I know that book would change my life so drastically.

           This week’s featured book is Everlasting Love the third in my Forest Ridge Series. 

          When Miranda Cummins borrows a friend's cabin to finish writng her long overdue book, she's surprised to find the one-room retreat already occupied by Kevin Mathews. Though she feels a spontaneous attraction for Kevin, Miranda has recently escaped a controlling husband and isn't ready for a long-term relationship.

         Unsatisfied with his occupation, Kevin is at a crossroads. Miranda understands and encourages him to look at the direction his life is going. Fired up on more, Kevin returns to Forest Ridge to resume his firefighting career.

         When Miranda is threatened by her ex-husband, Kevin realizes he will do anything to protect her. Miranda has shown Kevin a new passion for life. Can he fan the flames of passion into an Everlasting Love?
