A Chance for the Newcomer

GIVEAWAY

CARTER, LISA

A CHANCE FOR THE NEWCOMER

A big-city chef. 

A small-town single dad.

And matchmakers with marriage in mind...

Chef Kara Lockwood didn't think changing a small-town diner's menu would cause a boycott but the locals sure do love their apple pie -- especially fire chief Will MacKenzie. Kara's not sure she and the single father can ever learn to live peacefully as neighbors. But even as they clash over pastries, local matchmakers and Will's little boy are determined to bring their stubborn hearts together.

My Review:

Squealll -- back in Truelove with the Double Name Club who are up to their shenanigans -- including the matchmaking kind! In case you haven't visited Truelove yet, the Double Name Club is a posse of grannies with...well, two first names, like ErmaJean. While their civic mindedness runs to all sorts of town improvements, they excel (or think they do) at pairing up the singles in town. But they have their hands full with the new city girl and her upstart ideas and the staid, adverse-to-change fire chief. :-)

A Chance for the Newcomer is so much more than a romance -- though it's a beautifully crafted one, full of giggles and swoons and just enough angst to make a reader nervous about the outcome. But the true heart of the story comes from the small town charm and its host of quirky (and sometime exasperating) secondary characters. The way these folks bicker and fuss one moment and draw together to support someone in need the next is all kinds of bibliophile delight!

Heartwarming and toe-curling!
