Those are just some of the things going on in Cedar Cove, but don't let me talk your ear off with the local gossip. Take a stroll in Cedar Cove and get a feel for what's going on. You'll be glad you did.
Reading this book reminded me of how my mom described the small town she grew up in. Where everyone knew everyone else and where the 6 degrees of separation theory was whittled down to closer to 1 or 2 degrees. Where everyone pretty much knew everyone else's business. Yet even though a small town may sound like heaven on earth to some, nirvana can not always be found there. Every day life has a way of sneaking up on someone even in a small town, and the dramas of daily life can not be escaped. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting some of the residents of Cedar Cove. It reminded me of a less naughty version of Desperate Housewives. I truly enjoyed it.
