Hurricane Season

Once in a while I will cherry-pick through my list to find the book that's "just right" for my mood.  Hurricane Season was THE book that happened to fit that bill perfectly.  It's actually two books melded into one.  Betsy and Jenna lead very different lives, even though they are sisters. Betsy is married to Ty and works at helping him on the dairy farm.  Jenna is not married, but she has two lovely daughters and works at a coffee shop.  When opportunity knocks on Jenna's door to go to an artist's retreat, she dumps her daughters off on her childless sister for eight weeks.

There is no "romance" in this book, per se, but there is the discovery of love between sisters, between Betsy and Jenna's children, between Ty and Jenna's children, and the renewal of love between Ty and Betsy.  The interactions of the characters make the book.  Lauren K Denton knows how to bring the characters to life and make the book believable. I love the way she develops her plots and weaves them together. This is a five star book, two thumbs up, and a safe place to be during a hurricane. 

My thanks to Thomas Nelson for allowing me to read and review this book.
