About this eBook

Love is the best medicine
Olivia Davenport has finally gotten her life back together. She's left her painful past behind, started over in a new town, and become Harmony Harbor's most sought-after event planner. But her past catches up to her when Olivia learns that she's now guardian of her ex's young daughter. With her world spinning, Olivia must reconcile her old life with her new one. And she doesn't have time for her new next door neighbor, no matter how handsome he is.

Olivia may act like she's got everything under control, but Dr. Finn Gallagher knows a person in over her head when he sees one. He'd really like to be the shoulder she leans on, but Olivia makes it clear she doesn't want his help. Since he's returned to town, his waiting room has been full of single women feigning illness. Yet the one woman he's interested in is avoiding him. But with a little help from some matchmaking widows and a precocious little girl, Finn might just win Olivia over.

BONUS: Includes a complete novel from BookShots Flames! The McCullagh Inn in Maine by Jen McLaughlin/DIV

Ratings and reviews

Let the tears flow, the heart open and the healing begin. Primrose Lane takes readers on an odyssey of heartache and deep thoughts as it inspires, informs and engages. In an instant one woman lost it all. Her happiness, her family and her ability to believe, now one precious girl, a tenacious man and some meddling mischief makers may help her gain it all back. Ms. Mason deals with hard to take emotions through the eyes of Finn and Olivia. From sorrow so deep it shatters the heart, to taking risks on the road to a fresh start. The mark of a good writer is allowing art to imitate life and Primrose Lane puts that skill to good use as it offers encouragement and hope along the way.

Olivia Davenport just wants to forget about her painful past. Losing her son and finding out that her husband had married another woman while he was still married to Olivia just about devastated her. Then to top it all off, she discovers that her deceased husband has given her custody to his daughter from the other marriage. Olivia never asked for this life, and quite frankly, she just isn’t handling it all that well. But who could blame her really? She never expected to find love ever again, but fate has other plans for her when Finn, the town doctor, agrees to help her with her new stepdaughter and in the process, learns to love not only another man, but one adorable little girl, both finding a place in Olivia’s heart when she thought all was lost. While all these changes are going on in Olivia’s life, someone is out to destroy the happiness that she is finally found, and it is up to Colleen (the Gallagher’s ghostly grandmother) to find a way to save Olivia from certain death and to ensure that Olivia and Finn get the happily ever after they both deserve. I really enjoyed Primrose Lane! Right from the beginning, I was instantly captivated and found myself connecting and caring for each of the characters. This is a delightful story with just the right combination of romance, drama, suspense and ghostly intervention. I loved the small town feel and felt as though I was right at home with the characters as they faced their challenges head on. Debbie Mason is a talented storyteller that provides her readers with an exceptional story that is guaranteed to be an enjoyable reading experience that is not only captivating but unforgettable as well. If you enjoy a sweet romance that is not only filled with love and hope, but is suspenseful as well, then I highly recommend Primrose Lane!

What a lovely and delightful love story! I totally enjoyed getting to know the Gallagher clan and the townsfolk of Harmony Harbor! Harmony Harbor seems like a wonderful place to live or visit. The B&B the Gallagher family owns would be a must for a holiday. Wouldn't be great if places like were real? And well for a few hours they are. Debbie does a wonderful job of weaving a story/plot,the characters and locale into a place you want to spend your afternoon. I thought this wasn't a typical contemporary romance. There was a little mystery involved and some villainy to make this romance a little more interesting and spellbinding. The love story is sweet and just what a reader would want. This was a clean book. No bedroom scenes. The characters were fun and goofy and love able. Finn and Olivia are delightful. They seem to get off on the wrong foot when Finn suspects Olivia is using drugs. Once Olivia 'opens' up and tells Finn was is really going on with her they can't help become friends and later fall in love. The story revolves around Olivia's past with her husband and his mistakes just before his death. When Olivia receives word from his lawyer that he had a daughter and Olivia is named guardian. Olivia's world is torn apart until Finn helps her accept the child that is dumped into her lap. Georgina who goes by 'George' arrives as a bit of a 'terror' but it dosen't take long for every to fall in love with the sweet little girl. Even the grandparents who decide to fight Olivia for custody. Primrose Lane is book 4 in the Harmony Harbor series featuring the Gallagher family. Because I read the book on my phone and I didn't really read the description before I read the book I didn't know it was book 4. I was interested in the rest of the family and wondered if there were other installments. I don't think reader needs to read the books in order. But it would be fun! I loved Primrose Lane and look forward to reading the remainder of the series. I received a complimentary copy from Tasty Tours
