"Another fabulous contemporary from JT. I knew this was part of a series, but didn't realize it was basically a collection of stories about many characters in one small town. Not all of them get their happy ending in this book, but it was enough to be intriguing and make me fall in love with the town. Now I can't wait to read the other stories set in Harmony, TX."

— Missy (5 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

  • “This return to Harmony once again draws the reader into the intriguing, delightful, sometimes humorous, sometimes painful, lives of the town residents. The ending ties up some threads, and leaves some dangling for the next visit to this captivating small town.”

    — Romantic Times
  • “Even for readers new to the series, the intricate relationships between these affable men and eccentric women are easy to follow and even easier to love. Thomas skillfully juggles the many subplots, and the relationship between Ronelle and Marty, which inspires both to trust again, is especially touching.”
