I am really surprised that a man wrote this book, it felt like it was a woman. This book was AMAZING!! I wonder where this cottage actually is??

Sam, THANK YOU! What a compliment. The book was inspired by my grandmothers' charm bracelets, lives and lessons (as well as my mom), so I truly channeled them to write the novel. The cottage is based on my grandparents' log cabin that I spent summers at in the Ozarks, as well as my current home (a knotty-pine cottage) near Lake Michigan. I'm so glad you loved the novel. Hope our paths cross and that you recommend to all your friends and family. Much love.

I was also surprised to discover that the author is a woman. I loved the book so much that I have already ordered The Hope Chest and The Recipe Box. Such great reading! I am anxious to read some of the books the author has written under his own name.
