No, the one you are thinking of is written by Sherryl Woods. I am getting read to start the second book in the Chesapeake series Moonlight Cove. The first book was titled Driftwood Cottage. I had never read Sherryl Woods until recently. I will be looking for other books written by her.

I thought the Chesapeake series books were Nora Roberts?

Nora Roberts probably has a series about Chesapeake too. Hasn't she written about everything?

LOL - True (a cousin got the Roberts books about the Chesapeake area because she used to live there)

Actually I googled Nora Roberts/Chesapeake. I think I read them when they first came out. I read so much I can't keep track of everything I've read.

I bought myself the whole Cedar Cove series (plus a couple of Christmas stories in the series) last year (or was it this year?)and read them all really fast. I loved each and every one of them and will enjoy reading them again and again.

My first Debbie Macomber book was The Shop on Blossom Street. I loved it and wanted more of her books. However, as a knitter it drove me crazy that the first thing she teaches her students to make is a baby blanket. While lovely and useful (and of course fits in the story line) I would have taught them all how to make slippers. Why? Well, that is my knitting specialty.

I heard about the Cedar Cove books somewhere on this forum and just had to check them out for myself. I am glad I did. Sometimes it is nice to have some nice, light, easy reading.

I have a few other DM books and want more. I don't know if I will ever collect every book she wrote - there are tons! - but I am going to try.

Thanks for the recommendations of the Macomber books. I am always looking for suggestions of someone I haven't read yet. I like to have a list of recommendations when I visit the library. I would like to suggest the books by Eugenia Price, which I loved, if you care at all about historical fiction. Because of Price we took a trip to Georgia and her beloved Golden Isles. It all came alive to me. She writes pre Civil War and through the War as well. Some of the family she brought into her stories are burried at a church yard on St. Simons Island which we visited.
