About this ebook

Can fate—and firemen—do it again? When General Hart and his cronies almost burn down the church, quiet bookkeeper Poppy Nelson’s ordinary life is turned on its heels.  With a mischievous puppy underfoot, a mysterious painting under wraps, and hidden secrets unraveling, will art restorer Dylan Powell swoop in to save more than the town's beloved artifacts. 

More on 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.

Ratings and reviews

Its sad knowing with all the general's granddaughters finding their HEA, that this series is over. But wow, it ended with a bang! I loved reading this book, and loved that there was a couple, Adam & Meg, from the Farraday Country in the story as well as Brooklyn from the Aloha series. This story had lots of humour and tons of love. I was gifted an ARC and I'm volunteering my honest opinion. I recommend this book, I actually recommend the whole series.

Poppy, the final book in Chris Keniston's Hart Land maintains the standard of awesome and sweet romance. Those familiar with the series will be pleased with the wrap up of this series and will especially enjoy a couple of the guests we get to spend time with. The whole series is delightful and it ends with just the right touch. The big question we have been asking is answered and Lily..., well you will have to see for yourself.

I LOVED every single story !!! Thank you Chris for letting me go on a fantastic journey to bring me back to my memories of a lake in Belgrade!!!❤❤❤
