Uplifting

This book was so packed with uplifting and challenging events. I don't know how the author keeps adding to the characters and storyline. Yet another book that I tried not to rush to the end, to find out what happened. This series would make a great T V show. On to the next book!!!

Sweet romance

I liked the story line and good ending. Carlson's books are quite enjoyable to read. There should be another book to follow this one!

I really liked this book and I'm looking forward to finishing up the next (which is also the last) book in the series!

[LeAnne Kilman · Rating 1 out of 5]

Not a very good book. It’s almost as if the Author doesn’t want you to like her characters. All Maggie does is get put aside over and over for Jed’s drama, Leah, his x. Maggie pretty much stalks him instead of taking hints. Maggie is very judgmental but thinks everyone else is. Maggie likes being a door mat.

This is the third book in the Whispering Pines series. The series follows Maggie and her son Spencer and all the people in their lives since their cross-country move from Los Angeles to a small town in Oregon. Follows the developing relationship between Maggie and Jed, as well as the drama of small town life.

The continuing series of a widow starting her life over as an editor in a small mountain town is very readable. Carlson's books are classified as Christian fiction and the characters are fairly realistic though life is never quite so simple in the short time covered in her books.

[Loraine · Rating 4 out of 5]

This third book in the Whispering Pines series continues the story of Maggie Carpenter, her family and friends, and her newspaper The Pine Cone. Once again Melody Carlson does a very good job of probing relationships and feelings between people.

This book was okay, but I didn't love it.
