Bøger i The Inn at Verde Springs Trilo serien

What would you do if an aunt, who you were just getting to know, left you a ranch you'd never seen, 1,500 miles from your rainy Northwest home? Newly-single Harper Crawley seizes a second-chance at happiness. With the ink not-yet dry on her divorce papers, landscape designer Harper Crawley meets up in Santa Fe with her sister Paige for the reading of their late Aunt Sabina's will. Major surprise-the Crawley sisters are now the co-owners of a derelict ranch in Verde Springs, New Mexico. Despite its sagging chicken coops and a resident bat colony, Harper falls in love with the juniper-covered hills and walls of red rimrock surrounding the neglected property. Soon, Harper is stuffing herself with Maggie's enchiladas and flirting with local contractor Caleb Johansson-while his adorable five-year-old daughter Ellie wanders the ranch with their two rescue pups. Aspen groves and fields of flowers miraculously thrive in the high-desert as Harper works hard to create the garden of her dreams. Then, out of nowhere, Ellie's mom, Mariah, returns after a traumatic two-year absence. Money troubles threaten the ranch, and Harper's ex appears like a serpent in their newfound paradise. But when the Crawley sisters put their stubborn heads together, they're magically unstoppable.

When Paige Crawley hooks up with Renaissance musician Ed Barrett, one night of frolic leads to a detour she never expected. Could it also bring her the kind of love she never imagined? A busy autumn wedding season moves the Inn at Verde Springs into the black. Next up? Planning her sister Harper's April wedding at the Inn. But over-achiever Paige struggles with telling Mr. Renaissance Man that he's fathered a child until it's unavoidable. Even though Paige's lie-by-omission is unforgivable, Ed Barrett is excited to finally be a father. Then, when Paige's pregnancy turns high-risk, Ed sets his anger aside and follows his heart. As Paige and Ed navigate their precarious relationship, the imminent birth of their baby has the power to unite them or divide them. But for Paige, the future is clear: Ed is the man who makes everything work, not just for her, but for all of them. When a serious accident puts Ed's life at risk, Paige devotes herself to helping him through the crisis, and, finally, brings him home to the most healing place she knows: The Inn at Verde Springs. "Love Child" (Book 2, The Inn at Verde Springs Trilogy) celebrates the slow-simmering love between two strong people with a second chance to build a life, together.
