REVIEW: I am so excited! Tammy L. Grace is writing a new series. The first book is titled Greetings From Lavender Valley. I read it in one sitting. It is so good and I love the premise of the series. We have not had a new series by Tammy in a while so I am anxious to dive in. She has been part of other series written by multiple authors and I loved those but, this one is just her writing.

It is about a woman named Jewel who finds out she is unable to have children of her own. She and her husband live on a farm near a small town and decide to foster children. They have five long term girls who each have lived with them for at least five years. To Jewel, these are her children. 

We get to know them through letters she has written to them each over the years after they have graduated high school and moved on to college. We find out what they do with their lives and how they have managed their adult lives. We learn this at the beginning through the letters and the books go on to concentrate on each girl.

This sounds like such a lovely series. I was never one that read series for long without dropping them after a while. I have found that the series by multiple authors has kept my interest and I think this one will too as we get to know each girl. I love the books and stories that I’ve read of Tammy’s and I don’t think this one will be any different. I can’t wait to sink my teeth into these books. This book releases April 5th and Pathway to Lavender Valley will release on May 3rd. The first 3 books are up for pre-order. Until next time…Happy Reading!

SYNOPSIS: Six women. Four decades. One long, unexpected reunion.

Jewel Austin is a foster mother to dozens, but forms a special bond with five foster girls she welcomed under her roof long ago. Through handwritten letters, Jewel keeps in touch with these women she nurtured to adulthood.

Now in her eighties, Jewel’s time is short, and her last letter spells out an unusual request. The five women have never met but Jewel’s last wish is for them to return to Lavender Valley Farm together, back to the refuge where they once found the love and support they craved. Jewel has a keen sense of knowing their needs before they do and she knows they are going to need their sisters of the heart.

Life’s been hard, but facing the inevitable loss of the only parental figure you’ve known can be harder. Will the five women be able to overcome the obstacles that stand in their way of granting the beloved matriarch of their family her last wish?

Get to know each of the women through Jewel’s own letters in GREETINGS FROM LAVENDER VALLEY, the first book and prequel in the Sisters of the Heart Series. Fans of heartwarming, feel-good women’s fiction like those by Debbie Macomber or Sheila Roberts will devour this series by USA Today bestselling author, Tammy L. Grace.
