Redemption in a Small Town by Melinda Curtis (Love in Harmony Valley Book 12)

This book was a wonderful addition to this fun series,  It is always fun to see the very interesting and diverse group of people living in this little town as well as seeing characters from a previous book making it feel like you are going back home. The book moves at a good pace and characters are enjoyable and add to the the previous towns people. This romantic comedy has some humor, which I so enjoy in any book I read.  The World is serious enough, and this book gives a bit of comedic relief.  There are some engaging twists and turns that keep you reading.  Nate and Julia make the book a truly awesome story.  Don't miss this title and addition to the series.

A Small Town Girl with a Big City Secret by Melinda Curtis


Can I say this probably might just be my absolute fave book of this series!?  Well, that is the case and it was such a sweet story that I really didn't want it to end.  Single mom, Mina loves her son and will do anything to protect him.  Including keeping a secret that weighs heavily on her mind.  Hudson McCloud is a prominent man from an also prominent politically oriented family. He has secrets in his past, too.  The secrets seem to hold both back from moving forward and on with their lives.  

Liam is a sweet chess-playing boy and Mina's son.  The characters are all so engaging and the book was one that I couldn't put down easily.  So good!  Sweet romance and a wonderful realistic and believable story line.  In a few words:  I loved it!

Finding Family in the Small Town by Melinda Curtis (Love in Harmony Valley Book 8)


Book 8 of The Love in Harmony Valley series was a sweet romance that I enjoyed very much. Brittany Lambridge is opening a beauty shop in Harmony Valley.  I enjoy Harmony Valley as it reminds me so much of the little town that I lived in as a young girl, which is now almost a ghost town. Brittany is also looking for junk to create into art.  Then there's Joe and he is the mechanic with a not so good rep.

Joe is a single dad who is trying to put life back in order.  It's a sweet story with ups and downs and townspeople that add to a great story that I really liked.  It's a book you will enjoy and keep your interest throughout!

A Small Town Memory by Melinda Curtis (Love in Harmony Valley Series)

 

I loved this sweet romance and I have really enjoyed this series, as well.  This book is about Jessica, a master baker, who has amnesia and finds herself pregnant with now an unknown father.  As she seeks to find her past and future, bits of memory return, enough to lead her to Harmony Valley.  Here in this small, quiet place she searches for her memory and the pieces to her past.  I think this is one of my favorites in this series.  I really enjoyed the romance and the story line. The elderly people in Harmony Valley remind me of the town I grew up in and the warmth that one finds in small town life.  I think you will enjoy this one!

I loved this book.  I liked the characters of Gage and Shelby and his love of animals, especially horses.
