I’ve long been a fan of Susie May Warren and have every one of her books on my shelves! In April, 2013 she begins a new series in a familiar location ~ the Christiansen Family series set in Deep Haven ~ a place readers have fallen in love with in her previous stories.
I’m loving the sound of this one and the little boy is a darling ~ how about you?
Take a Chance on Me by Susan May Warren
Darek Christiansen is almost a dream bachelor—oldest son in the large Christiansen clan, heir to their historic Evergreen Lake Resort, and doting father. But he’s also wounded and angry since the tragic death of his wife, Felicity. No woman in Deep Haven dares come near.
New assistant county attorney Ivy Madison simply doesn’t know any better when she bids on Darek at the charity auction. Nor does she know that when she crafted a plea bargain three years ago to keep Jensen Atwood out of jail and in Deep Haven fulfilling community service, she was releasing the man responsible for Felicity’s death. All Ivy knows is that the Christiansens feel like the family she’s always longed for. And once she gets past Darek’s tough exterior, she finds a man she could spend the rest of her life with. Which scares her almost as much as Darek learning of her involvement in his wife’s case.
Caught between new love and old grudges, Darek must decide if he can set aside the past for a future with Ivy—a future more and more at risk as an approaching wildfire threatens to wipe out the Christiansen resort and Deep Haven itself.

Oh my goodness!!!!! I knew about this one but I had no clue that the cover and the description were out! It sounds so good!!
Also it’s cool to find someone else who loves SMW as much as I do-I own all of her books except for two novellas!

I finished my FIRST Susan May Warren book last week (I’m a little behind the curve) and LOVED it–her first on Deep Haven! Love these characters and thrilled to know they’re still alive and well in a new series! Thanks, Rel! 😉
