Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERSet in Cedar Cove’s charming Rose Harbor Inn, Debbie Macomber’s captivating new novel follows innkeeper Jo Marie and two new guests as they seek healing and comfort, revealing that every cloud has a silver lining, even when it seems difficult to find. Since opening the Rose Harbor Inn, Jo Marie Rose has grown close to her handyman, Mark Taylor. Jo Marie and Mark are good friends—and are becoming something more—yet he still won’t reveal anything about his past. When Mark tells her that he’s moving out of town, Jo Marie is baffled. Just when she is starting to open herself up again to love, she feels once more that she is losing the man she cares about. And as she discovers the secret behind Mark’s decision to leave, she welcomes two visitors also seeking their own answers. Best friends Kellie Crenshaw and Katie Gilroy have returned to Cedar Cove for their ten-year high school reunion, looking to face down old hurts and find a sense of closure. Kellie, known as Coco, wants to finally confront the boy who callously broke her heart. Katie, however, wishes to reconnect with her old boyfriend, James—the man she still loves and the one who got away. As Katie hopes for a second chance, Coco discovers that people can change—and both look to the exciting possibilities ahead. Heartwarming and uplifting, Silver Linings is a beautiful novel of letting go of the past and embracing the unexpected.Praise for Silver Linings “A heartwarming, feel-good story from beginning to end . . . No one writes stories of love and forgiveness like Macomber.”—RT Book Reviews “Macomber’s homespun storytelling style makes reading an easy venture. . . . She also tosses in some hidden twists and turns that will delight her many longtime fans.”—Bookreporter “Reading Macomber’s novels is like being with good friends, talking and sharing joys and sorrows.”—New York Journal of Books

Library Journal Reviews
Time to make another reservation at Cedar Cove's Rose Harbor Inn, run by the indefatigable Jo Marie. She's more than a little interested in handyman Mark Taylor, who suddenly announces that he's moving away. Meanwhile, friends Kellie Crenshaw and Katie Gilroy have returned to town for their high school reunion, and even as Kellie plans to confront the old boyfriend who broke her heart, Katie dreams of reconnecting with the dreamboat that got away. The most recent installment in this series, Rose Habor in Bloom, rose to No. 2 on the New York Times combined print/ebook best sellers list and No. 3 on the hardcover fiction list.
