“The people of Cedar Cove
know how to celebrate Christmas…Beth Morehouse expects this Christmas to
be one of her best…But…someone recently left a basket filled with puppies
on her doorstep…And…her daughters Bailey and Sophie have invited their dad,
Beth's ex-husband, Kent, to Cedar Cove for Christmas. The girls have visions of
a mom-and-dad reunion dancing in their heads. “
The excerpt above from the Amazon.com
review sets the scene well. And, of
course, since this is a Harlequin Romance offering, everything ends
happily.
According to the note from Debbie
Macomber at the beginning of the book, this is the last in the Cedar Cove
series. While it is not an especially
novel story, you do get to see most of the area’s inhabitants one last time as
the neighbors do their Christmas visiting.
And, most importantly, by the end of
the story, all the puppies have loving forever homes.
Speaking of puppies finding forever
homes, I’d like to mention the Animal Rescue Site, a part of www.thehungersite.com. By going this site
and clicking, you can authorize the site’s sponsors to make donations to a
number of good causes including helping animals in shelters. This site is a quick and easy way to help
others. If you are looking for a way to
do more good in the world this holiday season, consider stopping by each day
and clicking on to raise funds.
The Animal Rescue Site helps animal
shelters keep their residents warm and fed.
They also sponsor a Shelter Challenge wherein the shelter that garners
the most votes gets a sizeable cash reward.
You can vote for your local animal shelter, or if you wish, you may vote
for my favorite – The Humane Society of Monroe County, Waterloo, IL. They have plans to expand their no kill
shelter to hold more dogs and cats while they wait for their forever homes. You
can find out more about the shelter and the animals they have available for
adoption and fostering at http://www.hsofmcil.org. Thank you.
