On Love's Gentle Shore by Liz Johnson

Here is the book summary:
Fifteen years after she left Prince Edward Island, Natalie O'Ryan had no plans to return. But when her fiancé, music producer Russell Jacobs, books their wedding in her hometown and schedules a summer at Rose's Red Door Inn, she sets out to put the finishing touches on the perfect wedding. But she can't possibly prepare for a run-in with Justin Kane--the best friend she left behind all those years ago after promising to stay.

Justin's never forgotten Natalie or the music career he always dreamed of pursuing. He'd been prepared to follow her off the island until his dad died and he was left to run the family dairy farm. He's done the best he can with the life that was thrust upon him--but with Natalie back in the picture, he begins to realize just how much joy he's been missing.

After Natalie's reception venue falls through, she must scramble to find an alternative, and the only option seems to be a barn on Justin's property. As they work together to get the dilapidated building ready for the party, Natalie and Justin discover the groundwork for forgiveness--and that there may be more than an old friendship between them.

And now, my review:
On Loves Gentle Shore is book 3 in a series and I found that I just read through it without having read through the other 2 with no problems.  It stands alone well although it was excellent and now I want to read the other two as well.  That’s a nice “problem” to have, isn’t it?  This book flows so well and it’s a page-turner.  It touches on forgiveness and I loved the help that was given in support of Biblical forgiveness.  In it is mentioned going forward and the advice given was “I suppose you do the next right thing.”  The comment that we can carry bitterness around like a security blanket was thought provoking.  I highly recommend this author and this book.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
