3 1/2 stars In this book we return to Cedar Cove and pick up where 8 Sandpiper Way and A Cedar Cove Christmas left off. Sheriff Troy Davis is lamenting the fact he let his first love go for the second time. Faith Beckwith may still love Troy, but he let her go and she has no intention of giving him another chance. This is supposed to be a story about Faith and Troy, but it seems that all the other characters from Cedar Cove take over the story. Olivia, Grace, and Charlotte of course play a part in things (what is Cedar Cove without them?). Then there is Christie, Teri Polgar's sister, and her somewhat relationship with James Wilbur. Oh, and of course Teri and Bobby. Then there are Bruce and Rachel, newly married and dealing with his daughter, Jolene. Mack and Mary Jo have a HUGE storyline and setup the next book (1022 Evergreen). It seemed to me that this book was more about the next book than this one itself. I almost got lost with all the storylines and there was very little resolution. Usual for the "continuing saga of Cedar Cove," but this seemed excessive. I also found that Macomber seemed to peddle her A Cedar Cove Cookbook a bit in the book. It was repeatedly mentioned that Charlotte gathered recipes for Justine's new tea room. Plus, when she bakes something, it almost felt like a recipe. Did it really help the plot to know that Charlotte knitted for 45 minutes while waiting for something in the oven? I didn't feel that it did. Overall, this was a bit of a disappointment. Troy and Faith barely had a story here and the ones that were front and center were left hanging. So, here's to waiting for the next book in the series...
