There’s a newcomer to the village of Heartcross and she’s never been more in need of a friend. Ella is ready to start afresh ––and that could mean there’s love on the horizon in the form of the gorgeous Roman, the local water taxi driver. Every day Roman is there to ferry Ella to the restaurant on the other side of the lake and every night he makes sure she gets home safe. But Roman has secrets of his own…
Can the Love Heart Lane community offer Ella a chance of a new life? Or will the ghosts of her past catch up with her?

My Review:
Heartcross sounds a bit like Hotel California as once people come, they “never leave.” I adored the character of Roman, of course, he could only exist between the covers of a book as he is too good to be true. I’m enjoying this sweet series as the storylines are relatable, the characters are likable, and each book can stand alone quite well with the previously featured characters and locals continuing on with updated storylines in subsequent volumes. And no obnoxious cliffhangers insight. This is how a series should be!

This series sounds great. Your review has sold me on it.
I know what you mean about book men. Too good to be true, which is why over the years I have gained many book boyfriends.
It’s wonderful to find books from a series or world that manage to keep the plots and characters fresh.
A wonderful review DJ.
Gotta love a nice ending that leaves you satisfied. Cliffhangers can drive me bonkers.
Happy to hear that this was cliff hanger free.
Great review. Sounds fab. I own a few of her books but I don’t think I’ve ever read any of them.
This really sounds like a fun, sweet series. I feel your delight in your review.
