I did things a wee bit backwards here as normal, I read book two in this series before I read the first book.... so yes folks it is okay and each one can work as a stand alone. This book was such a good romance to me and it would have been a five star read except I got a little bit lost in a few spots. This book began with a Jordan Velsor sitting on the beach trying to figure out how she is going to recover from finding her fiancee` nekked with is secretary right before the wedding. OH and she is suppose to accept it and marry him anyway. YEP, Not happening. Then there is Nick Rinaldi. Retired well medically discharged naval officer who happens to be a doctor. He is there in Compass Cove to recover and heal from several surgeries from the war. There is an instant connection between the two of them that they do not even realize. Part of it from him helping Jordan when she is sick. The other part is physical attraction and also I think something else is there, a kinship of sorts. There are wonderful side characters like Nick's grandparents and ALL his family. We also have the town's history that in itself is a beautiful story that I would LOVE for the author to take time and write that book...or maybe she has i need to go and look and see. There is so much more to this book than what i have talked about. I started reading this and never put it down. And I went and bought the first book so now I will know what I missed to catch up as well. This is another one of those books that an author is able to pen a story so well that I am wanting to find this quaint fictional town of Compass Cove to visit for a summer and find it's magic.

You Send Me is the second book in the Compass Cove Series. Jeannie Moon does an excellent job of creating characters that will stay with you for a long time. I have found a new book boyfriend. Nick Rinaldi has the Hollywood good looks without the arrogance and attitude. He is compassionate, caring and a wonderful friend. Being a retired Naval Doctor did not hurt his chances either. Jordan Velsor is a teacher renting the little house next door to Nick's grandma and Paps. Grandma sent Nick over to check on Jordan during a storm. It's a good thing he came over when he did. He took her and the little dog home to grandma's to doctor and watch after her while she healed from pneumonia. This author is a great story teller. I did enjoy this book. But since this is my review, I must say I would have enjoyed it more and rated it higher than a 3.5 if it did not use Jesus Christ or God or drop the F bomb. Jeannie is such a good writer, I just didn't think it added to her already great story. I received a copy of this book from Tule Publishers through NetGalleys. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

WOW!! I loved, loved, loved You Send Me by Jeannie Moon, book two in her Compass Cove series. Once again she made me fall in love with her hero and heroine, Jordan and Nick, not that it was difficult to do. Nick has been watching Jordan since he returned to Compass Cove. He missed being able to run after his surgery. He needed to figure out what was next for this former Navy pediatrician with a bit of PTSD. Life had thrown too much at Jordan. She cancelled her wedding after she caught her fiancé with his pants down while in his office with his secretary. Her only family member, her dad, was in hospice care and she was not ready to lose him. And now this elementary school teacher was sick; not with the cold she thought, but pneumonia. Thankfully Dr. Nick and his grandparents, her landlord, watched over her as she recovered. Through a misunderstanding, Jordan’s dad thinks she and Nick are engaged. There is definitely magic in the town of Compass Cove, magic that helps Jordan and Nick find themselves and each other. There is definitely chemistry and attraction between these two. This story played with my emotions, wondering if these two would find their happy, ever after. These two characters grew so much closer during their journey of finding their “true north” and their true love. I totally loved reading this book and really had trouble putting this book down. Ms. Moon wrote a wonderful story, creating amazing characters, keeping the story interesting, making me forget the world around me and did not let me go until I turned the last page. I highly recommend this book to other readers and cannot wait for the next book in this amazing series. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
