About this ebook

"Small town, big family, and mismatches that will steal your heart! Delightful!" Roxanne St. Claire, New York Times bestselling author of the Dogfather series.

“You can’t go wrong with a Chris Keniston book!” RaeAnne Thayne, New York Times bestselling author of the Haven Point series.

Unable to work in her flooded Boston studio, yoga instructor Violet Preston retreats to her family’s peaceful lakeside home. While the looming sale of her affordable apartment building might be threatening her Zen, her real battle comes in the form of one well-dressed, smooth-talking, Lamborghini-driving charmer.

More about the Hart Land Lakeside Inn:

Come and stay in one of the quaint and cozy cottages at Hart Land—but be warned, once you meet the family and delightful cast of characters, you may never want to leave.

Fiona Hart is the devoted matriarch. Elegant, wise, and arts patron, but despite all her efforts, she has yet to find her own artistic outlet. Lucy isn’t just a housekeeper, she’s part of the family. She also fancies herself a real life Dolly Levy, except she’s much better at cooking up trouble than the perfect match. Innkeeper and retired general Harold Hart believes in hard work, discipline, and whatever his beloved wife wants. Katie O’Leary runs the One Stop, makes the best Irish soda bread this side of the Blarney Stone, and no one is quite sure if it’s more than her baking that has the magic touch. Did we mention the Harts have nine granddaughters?

Having grown up spending summers together on the lake, the cousins are as close as sisters—closer. Each woman knows there’s no place like Hart Land. They can always count on their grandfather’s gruff, their grandmother’s sage advise, Lucy’s fresh baked cookies, Katie’s inspiration, the calming scent of fresh air—and each other.

Follow along with friends, family, neighbors, and guests as the Harts maneuver life’s curves, and just maybe find love along the way. 

As a Special Bonus VIOLET includes a treat from Lily's Recipe Box!

Ratings and reviews

Violet may be my favorite book of the Hart Land series. It is hard to pick because I love all of them. Yoga instructor Violet returns home just as Lily and Heather's worlds seem to be perfect and hers feels as if it is crashing. Her yoga studio is closed for repairs to the building and the owner has decided to sell. Not only does that mean no income for an indefinite time, her friend, the current owner, warns her that whoever purchases the building will have to raise the rents because there are so many repairs that have been delayed. Crushed, because the downtown location is the main reason that she is so successful, Violet returns to the place that represents safety and love, her grandparent’s bed and breakfast. Matchmaking is the name of the game. The other girls weren't sure that their grandparents a pushing as hard as housekeeper Lucy, but the general’s manipulations are as plain as the sexy car sitting in front of the B&B. Wonderful characters that any reader is sure to fall in love with are the hallmark of Chris Keniston's novels and this family, their friends, and the new men in their lives are a perfect example of what a great job she does in creating I requested and received and ARC from the author. I will be adding a copy to my personal collection soon.

Good book just liked the last two a little better😀

ANOTHER GREAT STORY. I can't wait to read the next book in this series.
