A fun and heartwarming cozy romance read that gave me hours of entertainment! --The Genre Minx on Can't Hurry Love A small town brought to life with wit and charm.--SheilaRoberts, New York Times bestselling author Despite the heaviness of a spouse's death and the bitterness that may come with such intense heartbreaks suffered by both main characters, there's warm and pleasant goofiness to the town of Sunshine and the gentle romance between Drew and Lola. The Sunshine Valley Widows Club probably deserves most of the credit. They steal every scene and have perfect timing with comedic relief or a meaningful word. --Kirkus Reviews on Can't Hurry Love You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll want to visit again soon!--BrendaNovak, New York Times bestselling author
