This series is Christian romance. That means love leads to marriage, the “steamy bits” are limited to hugs and kisses, and they’re a bit preachy. The stories are all set in the same small Maine town, where everybody knows everyone’s business, gossip is rampant, and social life revolves around church and family. Many of the same characters appear in the different books.
Having recently read Jane Austen’s ‘Persuasion,’ I was struck by the similarity. Not Jane’s paragraph-long sentences, but the emphasis on introspection and detailed analysis by the main characters of everything said or done by each other. Actually, that’s probably typical of romances in general--I just hadn’t thought about it.
“The course of true love never did run smooth.” As expected, there are multiple problems to be overcome, many misunderstandings, and joyful making up when the difficulties are resolved. The writing is clear and flows well, the plots work, and the characters are likeable people you can care about. (And the unlikeable ones tend to get hustled off-stage.)
I enjoyed the first five of the books in this set. The sixth one was just OK for me just not as interesting. It was nice to read interesting stories with likable relatable characters without having a murder in every story. I was confused reading the books after Faith’s because in her story the doctor’s receptionist Marjorie’s niece’s name was Heather but in the next story her name had changed to Michelle. Both were good stories but I had to go back & make sure I was not mistaken about that. Marjorie had tried to interfere & hoped her niece Heather would get the job that Fair got. I’ll certainly read more from this author.
Once started reading, I have didn't want to stop reading. First book , I read through until the end. Second book, I stayed up most of the night to finish. Third , Fourth, Fifth, and sixth book I just read until finished. Great Christian stories that have God involved in every day situations. Thank you Barbara McMahon for you time and God given talent for such wonderful stories.
Well written, easy reading love stories set on the coast of Maine. If you love small town living, where everyone knows your name, this series is for you.
This collection was well written and thoroughly enjoyed. The characters were well developed in the series and believable. Looking forward to the author's next series.
This is not a genre I typically read but I truly enjoyed each book and the heart warming relationships with each other and their expressions of faith without being overly cloying. I will definitely be reading more of Ms. McMahon's books.
