Love Remains

by Sarah M Eden

[sstaley]

What a beautiful story! This novel has so many wonderful characters that I've met before and it truly was like coming home. I also loved the new character of Cecily who not only showed amazing strength in her life but also how it's OK to be vulnerable and let others in. Tavish is my favorite character in this whole series. I was thrilled to know that this story was about him and how he hopefully would be getting his happy ending.

There are so many wonderful messages in Love Remains. There is the hope and courage that Cecily gives young Finbarr in his life, now almost blind after his accident. Cecily changes so many lives in the town of Hope Springs including her own. I also loved how grief was handled in the story. The main characters learned how finally allowing grief to happen also allows healing to begin.This story will bring you to tears as well as make you laugh out loud. Of course the witty dialogue that Sarah Eden is known for is a huge part of this book.

The love story of Tavish and Cecily is amazing. They start as almost enemies, and it's beautiful how their relationship unfolds slowly, in a delicate and funny way where you can't help but cheer on this couple. This story wouldn't be complete if dear Granny Claire hadn't been there. She was a pillar of strength and wisdom that both Tavish and Cecily needed. I've loved all of the books in this series but Love Remains is now my favorite. I read this enchanting book in a few hours as it weaved it's magic over me. Love Remains could be a stand alone book but I highly recommend you reading the series of books in the order they were written. This is another 5 star book for author Sarah Eden.
