Includes an excerpt of Sunday at the Sunflower Inn.Book Synopsis
This delightful and touching new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of dozens of treasured romances returns readers to the picturesque Texas town of Honey Creek--a place where friendship and warm welcomes can be relied on, and love always finds a way. In this heartwarming new story, an Army Ranger who's been hurt before may finally find the woman who can mend his broken heart. "Thomas's memorable, refreshingly candid characters are sure to resonate, especially the strong female protagonists. Series fans will be delighted." --Publishers Weekly Benjamin Monroe is pretty sure how his life will play out. He'll continue teaching chemistry in his small college, and spend his free time biking through the valley. Eventually, he'll retire to putter around in his garden and greenhouse. His colleague, Virginia Clark, is not one for routines. She's chatty, spontaneous, and bubbly, and before Benjamin realizes what happened, she's talked him into collaborating on a research project--studying the mating habits of college students. Virginia knows her desire to work with Benjamin is motivated by more than the potential prize money . . . and hopes he might not be quite as indifferent as he seems to be. Ketch Kincaid, one of Benjamin's star students, returned to college after serving in the army. He needs something to get his mind off his recent breakup and collecting research data might do it. And there's another distraction on the horizon--a woman who looks like she, too, knows about heartache. Soon enough, their project, "The Chemistry of Mating," is gaining notoriety. Friends, neighbors . . . the whole town has become involved. But no matter what the data determines, one conclusion seems inescapable: love follows its own rules . . . "Compelling and beautifully written." --Debbie Macomber on Ransom CanyonReview Quotes

I loved this book. Told from multiple points of view, it just worked. Three couples, one young, one in mid-life, and one totally mis-matched, and the way their love stories evolve. A recently retired military man, dumped by his fiancée can't decide what to do with his life once his well planned future begins to crumble. His one night of indulgence and self pity opens the door to a new relationship with a woman who can't or won't let herself feel. A well thought of professor finally realizes his perceived nemesis is. She is the professor with the office next to his, How does he know her? Can the memories they shared at one time come back to them with the intensity of their youth? A rebellious man who has left his town under a cloud and the librarian who no one knows anything about. His actions put her under his care, and her actions open his heart. A beautifully woven story or love, loss, need, and the knowledge that when things happen as a child or an adult and aren't worked through at the time, they become limiting to us as age takes over. This book is just homey. I wanted to crawl under a blanket in my cozy chair and savor the story after I was done reading.
