A bit confusing if you jump in at this one, but I picked up who everyone was quickly enough. I feel like there's a much bigger overarching plot over the series but I don't know if I care enough to read the 8 previous and however many after. I hate cliffhangers!

I do do cliffhangers. I come to find out should be read in order for better enjoyment. I don’t have time for either.

Very well written story, the writer definitely has a talent to write eloquent proses and descripitives that paints the whole scene in the readers mind. With that said, I did struggle a bit to follow the plot as I started the story as I hadn't read the previous book but nevertheless the author has done fabulous job with beautiful prose and narrative.

Patricia/Tish knew she had past lives and at least one of the she had already been with Case but his name was Cole. Tish had seen Cash at her older sister’s - Camille’s wedding when she was eighteen. and had been a bridesmaid. Case had told Tish he loved her but she hadn’t listened. Tish was a lawyer and worked for Al Home. Tish had given up a law career in Chicago and moved to Jalesville. Tish lived in a trailer with Case. They had several animals in their barn. Tish woke from a nightmare, and noticed the barn was on fire which held their animals. Case went out to save the animals but passed out after freeing the animals and Tish hadn’t listened to Cash and went to the barn found Cash passed out and the barn caving in from the fire and she dragged Cash outside and she saved Cash’s life. Tish had burned her lungs and Cash was in a coma. Tish’s father has been a lawyer for twenty years. Then Tish told her dad sub company was buying up an inoperative power plant and its surrounding land. But Tish’s dad found it odd Ron hadn’t told him when Tish had went to Jalesville specifically to counteract Capital Overland’s activities. Tish had stumbled onto Redd company was part of Ron’s holding. Her dad didn’t want to believe Ron Turnbull had ulterior motives concerning Tish’s presence in Jalesville. Also that Ron might have taken advantage of her. Ron Turnbull was dangerous. Tish wondered if Ron hadn’t had the fire started to warn Tish. Case was Marshall’s best friend and he spent night’s in Case’s room with Tish. Marshall had claimed Ruthann was his a long time ago. But Ruth always had the same boyfriend -Liam although this time she felt a certain pull to Marshall that she doesn’t understand. Tish’s family had come from Minnesota when she herself was in her hospital bed and stayed with her while Case was still in the hospital to give her strength and support for all she was going through with her own burnt lungs and Case.
I really enjoyed this book. I liked the pace and the plot. It was a good read. It was sometimes hard to keep the connections all together correctly from both the past and the present. But I enjoyed the danger, intrigue,tension, and suspense. I liked the way the author does her descriptions in such a way that you can actually picture things in your mind. But I did hate the ending as it was a cliffhanger and as I have said many times in my reviews I hate cliffhangers. But I did feel this was still worth reading. And I recommend.

I would like to start by saying this is the first book of the series that I have read & I would recommend reading them in order since it took me a while to follow some of the storylines. The writer has an excellent way of creating her storyline & conveying it to the readers. Her prose is descriptive & enables the reader to picture the scenes in their minds. The characters are well developed & three dimensional. If you like romances set in the west with strong men & women & a heavy use of past lives & that influence on the characters in the present, this is a book/series you really need to try.

I loved this I was hooked and I couldn't put my kindle Down while reading

Book 7 in the Shore Leave Café series and each one just keeps getting better. This book is more about Tish and Case and Ruthann and Marshall's stories. After a devastating fire puts Case in hospital, Ruthann comes to Jalesville to comfort and help Tish out while Case is in hospital.

She has every intention to return home but when she sets eyes on Marshall again after his visit many years ago, she finds feelings start to develop and knows she will find it very hard to go back to her relationship with Liam and her old life.

Once again there are many players from the Dove series and trying to figure out the how they are all connected to the people from the past and where their destinies lie is becoming harder than they could ever imagine. Who can be trusted and how far will people go to get their hands on the Rawley and Spicer land? There is much danger ahead and the Davis women and Rawley/Spicer men are uncertain what roles they play in the past and where it leads them all into their future.

I am absolutely loving this series and cannot wait for the last two books in the series to be written to finally find out the fate of these wonderful characters.

Thanks so much to Netgalley and Central Avenue Publishing for the opportunity to read and review this great book.
