About the Book
An inheritance brought her
to Magnolia, but love just might keep her there…
Avery Keller arrives in Magnolia, North Carolina, with one
aim: collect her inheritance and quickly put the quirky town in her rearview
mirror. But the father who didn’t acknowledge her when he was alive has left
Avery a mess to sort through—along with two half sisters she’s never met and a
gorgeous single dad living next door. Soon her plan to keep this colorful,
close-knit community at a distance gets complicated….
Grayson Atwell has rescued plenty of people in his
firefighting career. His work and his little girl, Violet, are his entire world
and there’s no time for anything—or anyone—else. But the vulnerability beneath
Avery’s prickly facade brings out a fiercely protective side of him. Despite
her protests, Gray can see that Avery’s falling under Magnolia’s spell—just
like he’s falling for her. Now the only question is: How can he convince her to
give them both a chance at forever?
My Review
I did read the prequel, A Magnolia Reunion, before starting this one, so I had an idea of what to expect from the setting of Magnolia, North Carolina. The plot line intrigued me on a personal level – Avery learning of her father’s death and that she has two half sisters and an inheritance waiting for her – shortly after her life turns into a downward spiral. Upon arriving in Magnolia, she manages to bump heads with not only her half sisters and other town members, but also single dad Grayson and his feisty young daughter. While The Magnolia Sisters could get a little predictable in some areas, I thought it was a cute read that moved at a smooth pace, with a charming small town setting and the potential for more sisters to tell their personal stories. I would definitely picking up the next books in the series for a sweet read!
