He's big city, she's small town. He's a fast-paced businessman, she's a slowed-down artist. He loves the night life, she loves the quiet life. He's wealthy, she... well, isn't. Can such opposites make love work? Successful Austin CEO Isaiah Williams rarely gives himself the luxury of time off. He thrives on the buzz of making deals and signing multi-million dollar contracts. But spending the holidays in a small Oregon town with his former business partner will let him finalize the purchase of his friend's share of their business. Plus, even better, he'll get to spend more time with the pretty local artist he met and fell for at his friend's wedding. Watercolor artist and cafe manager Cas Salter loves to paint the ever-changing ocean. She also loves her friends, her church, and the peace of mind she's developed since she came to live in Chapel Cove. And okay, perhaps she does love Isaiah, just a little bit. His confident charm is hard to resist, but she can't give up the life she's worked hard to create or the faith that means everything to her and join him in the fast lane. Life in the slow lane suits her fine. When she reveals the reason she can't risk moving back to the city, will he choose to stand by her? And when Isaiah is thrown into relying on God as his world crumbles, can Cas choose to stand by him? Welcome to Chapel Cove, Oregon, where life begins at forty. Stunning coastline, a harbor against life's storms, and a welcoming community await in Chapel Cove. A place where those hurt by challenges, disappointments, and failures or reminded of their unfulfilled hopes and dreams can make a fresh start. And, if they're brave enough to accept it, maybe also find a second chance at love, if only they'll allow God to safely anchor them in their hearts' home?

Autumn Macarthur is an Australian writer of inspirational romance living near London with her very English husband and five spoiled cats. She loves reading, cooking, gardening, and writing deeply emotional stories to make you smile and remind you how big and wide and deep God's love and forgiveness can be. She tends to talk a little too much, laugh a little too loud, and eat a little more than maybe she should. She's thankful to be blessed with some good friends and a very patient husband. Most of all, she's eternally grateful for God's great love and mercy. When she's not talking to her strawberry plants or cherry blossoms, she can be found blogging at www.faithhopeandheartwarming.com; on Facebook as Autumn Macarthur, and on Twitter as @autumnmacarthur. She'd love to hear from you! Sign up for the newsletter at her blog and access exclusive subscriber only behind-the-book content and giveaways!
