Sweetbriar Cottage - by Denise Hunter (Paperback)

Sweetbriar Cottage is an amazing story of second chances and true love. I had a hard time putting it down, and was dying to see what would happen next. I loved watching the way the story unfolded. Hunter had me wishing I could dig into their past to see what caused their divorce in the first place. She did an amazing job at writing their emotions, I could literally feel their frustration. Noah and Josephine were happily married once, what happened that caused them to drift so far apart? How does someone get over a broken heart? In Noah's case, he moved to the mountains and does everything possible to avoid his ex wife. That is until he receives a paper in the mail saying he is still married to her. Josephine is just as shocked when she hears the news, but agrees to do whatever necessary in order to fix it. Going out of her way, Josephine drives out to Noah's house to help speed along the process. Little does she know, a big storm is on its way and it's right behind her. Being stranded with someone you hurt deeply is no easy thing. Learning to not bite each other's head off also fits into that category. Should they get to the bottom of their failed marriage and give it another try? Or are some transgressions too much for forgive? I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a book about second chances. I enjoyed the bits of humor and suspense mixed in. Hunter took me to another place, and I even found myself a little chilly while reading about the snow storm. I can't wait to see what she writes next. I received a copy of this book from Thomas Nelson Publishers. I was in no way required to post a review. All opinions expressed are my own.
