ABOUT THE BOOK

HerHopeDiscoveredTitle: Her Hope Discovered
Series: Welcome to Ruby #1
Author: Cynthia Herron
Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: December 31, 2018

Is the sure thing worth risking for the possibility of maybe?

Charla Winthrop, a savvy business woman seeking a permanent lifestyle change in small-town Ruby, learns that things aren’t always what they appear when she takes up residence in a house steeped in charm and a hint of mystery.
Rumor has it that Sam Packard the town carpenter is her go-to guy for home remodeling, but can Charla convince him to help her—with no strings attached, of course?

Alone far too long, Sam’s prayed that God would send him a wife and a mother for his daughters. However, the new Ruby resident is hardly what he imagined. A new place to call “home,” the possibility of what might be, and the answer to someone’s prayers unite this unlikely pair with the help of the town’s residents.

Nestled in the Ozarks’ hills and hollows is Ruby, Missouri, a quaint, cozy town where “neighbor” is merely another word for “friend.” Ruby will charm and delight as will her quirky, lovable characters who will steal your heart, but hand it right back—with whipped cream and a cherry on top. Savor your new friends’ sorrows and successes in the community where offbeat is perfect and mishaps and mayhem never tasted so good.

IN MY OPINION

When Charla Winthrop makes some changes in her life, they are BIG ones. Leaving behind a prestigious career, a mother intent on keeping up appearances, and a controlling ex, Charla leaves Boston for the slower paced Ozarks. The move allows her freedom to stretch wings that had been clipped for too long, and the last thing she expects is an almost instantaneous attraction to a man.In Her Hope Discovered, Cynthia Herron gives readers a story heralding the simpler life of small town living. Sam and Charla are open about their attraction, and her subsequent hesitation to jump into another relationship, from the start. Conversation between them ranges from comfortable to intentional to emotional but all of it has a natural flow.

And though predictable, this sweet story gives readers a look into real life issues—grief, pain, healing, independence, friendship—while shining the light on promises of second chances.
