Book Reviews

As a reader, I am a sucker for anything told through the perspective of a four-legged creature, and Gracie is an animal who completely entranced me. The Chicago deli setting at Thanksgiving is a beautifully warm setting and a wonderful place for closure, reconciliation, and love to begin again. While the tone might appear overly sentimental, it still has a comforting feeling rather than an overwhelming, “sugarcoated” feeling. The soft nudged of this “angel” from Heaven encourage everyone in attendance to reach out to each other and connect on a deeper level. This story is short, but filled with a heavy dose of love, making it a perfect choice for readers who are looking for a heartwarming book during stressful times but who still want to support the value of family and a fresh beginning.

It's All About Love

The Warrington Legacy Complete Collection

A sweet, heartwarming story about how love can happen when you least expect it. After losing the love of his life, Leo Tucker never thought it would be possible to fall in love again. But then he met Gracie Maxwell, and happiness seemed to be more than just a possibility—it became a reality.

Gracie Maxwell had been hurt so many times before her final conclusion: she was never going to let herself fall in love or even get close to it ever again. But then she met Leo.

Leo was kind and considerate, and Gracie thought he was pretty darned wonderful, so unlike anyone she had ever known. So there they were, falling in love with each other. Would they choose each other, or would they decide against the second chance they were both afraid of?

The beauty of this love story will make you laugh, cry, and everything in-between as you watch them decide their destiny. Will they find the right path to each other’s hearts?
