The Love Bouquet

Escape again into Orchard Valley! Enjoy this classic small-town romance from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber.

When nurse Sherry Waterman leaves Orchard Valley, Oregon, for Pepper, Texas, a small town in the middle of ranch country, she's definitely not in the mood to be "courted."

If anyone can change her mind, it's the hardworking, good-looking Cody Bailman--a widower with a twelve-year-old daughter. But Cody's loved and lost before, and he's afraid to go down that road again. Fortunately, his daughter Heather is determined to teach him about romance--and she's got her eye on Sherry as the woman who's "just perfect for Dad."

Guided by Heather's matchmaking touch and lots of nosy locals following the proceedings with interest, Sherry and Cody won't be able to resist one another for long!
