Dear Santa by Debbie Macomber
Lindy's boyfriend has cheated on her and she returns to her parent's home in Wenatchee, despondent. Writes letters to Santa, falls for handsome chef who was cheated by business partner. Sweet.
Annie's family dies in a landslide in the Pacific Northwest. Annie, a P.A., ends up in a seaside town at cottage her family used to vacation in. Falls for gentle silent giant Keaton, an artist and carpenter.
When they First Met by Debbie Macomber is a 2012 Ballantine Books publication.
This 27-page novella/short story was included in the digital version of ‘The Inn at Rose Harbor’. Basically, it just goes into greater detail about how Jo Marie met Paul, how they fell in love and decided to get married.
This is a poignant little story considering how things turned out for Paul and Jo Marie- but it was nice to get a better feel for the kind of man Paul was and why Rose fell in love with him.
Overall, a nice, sweet bonus read, but not necessary to enjoy the series. If your library has a copy- go for it- but you don’t need to go out of your way to get a copy.

The Inn at Rose Harbor by Debbie Macomber is a 2012 Ballantine Books publication.
This is the first book in a five-book arc, which is a slight spin off from the Cedar Cove series. I loved the setup- Jo Marie, a widow, buys a B&B and welcomes guests with troubled souls- which means we get two fresh stories in each installment while we follow Jo Marie’s own journey back to happiness after losing the love of her life.
I found myself easily caught up in the drama- Abby and Joshua each had compelling and emotional stories. I think this is a series that will appeal to readers who enjoy stories about people overcoming emotional traumas, who find forgiveness, healing, and peace- with only mild romantic elements,but will also appeals to romance lovers- though the romance is not the main focal point.
This is good story telling and it is easy to see why Macomber is so very popular. This book is a a little over a decade old, but shows very few signs of age.
I’m looking forward to meeting the next set of visitors to the Rose Harbor Inn!!
*This book has a bonus novella- which I will review separately.… (more)
