River's Song

Her relationship with her daughter in shambles and tensions mounting with her mother-in-law, Anna Larson returns to her childhood home on the banks of the Suislaw River to sort out her parent's belongings and put the pieces of her own life back together.

Embracing her native heritage for the first time since childhood Anna transforms her old family home into Shining Waters Inn, a place she hopes will give her family a new beginning.

A wonderful beginning to a new series that takes place in Oregon.  Even though I really liked Anna, I was frustrated with how she allowed herself to be treated.  The MIL is easy to dislike, but you know there is more behind her story.  I look forward to book two of this series.

I keep running across books set in Oregon lately. And they all make me want to take a trip out there!

This sounds good and there's always more than meets the eye isn't there?
