Almost Home. Debbie Macomber
Praise for the novels of Debbie Macomber!

Publishers Weekly on Summer on Blossom Street
“Excellent characterization will keep readers anticipating the next visit to Cedar Cove.”
Booklist on 311 Pelican Court
Praise for the novels of Cathy Lamb!
“Charming.”
Publishers Weekly on The Last Time I Was Me
“Julia’s Chocolates is wise, tender, and very funny. In Julia Bennett, Cathy Lamb has created a deeply wonderful character, brave and true. I loved this beguiling novel about love, friendship and the enchantment of really good chocolate.”
Luanne Rice, New York Times bestselling author
Praise for Judy Duarte!
“Mulberry Park is tender and touching … this novel will stay with you long after you have read the last page.”
Dorothy Garlock, New York Times bestselling author
“Judy Duarte brings together a cast of lost and lonely characters and deftly weaves their lives into a story that hooked me from a little girl’s aching honest Dear God request until the very last page. A wonderful heartwarming read!”
Jill Marie Landis, USA Today bestelling author
Praise for Mary Carter!
“The sitcom-caliber humor hits its mark, and the trove of mini-mysteries will keep readers guessing.”
Publishers Weekly on Accidentally Engaged
“Carter shows she has a knack for creating odd but likable characters, and readers are sure to take notice.”
