Forever Love At Wildflower lock By Hannah Lynn

It’s time to meet the family…

Daisy May thought she had everything figured out. After successfully establishing her coffee shop at the idyllic Wildflower Lock and with things going well with charming Theo, she was ready to embrace her happily ever after. But when Theo pops the question, the happiness is overtaken by worries.

Because meeting Theo’s family for the first time is not accompanied by the warm welcome she hoped for. Theo’s parents disapprove of her and they have no qualms in showing it. And when they reveal secrets about Theo’s past, Daisy is left in a spiral.

As insecurities creep in, and with even her own mother expressing her doubts, Daisy begins to question her future with Theo.

Will love conquer all, or will she give in to her fears and cancel the wedding?

Are there some things that can’t be forgiven?

Helen Walsh has never stopped searching for the daughter who ran away from home when she was just fifteen. Now Tia has found her. Helen longs for her daughter’s forgiveness. Will a Coorah Creek wedding help heal their rift?

Ed Collins has walked Helen’s path, and he knows that she needs more than her daughter’s forgiveness. Ed feels compelled to help her, as he is increasingly drawn to her kind and loving heart.

Then Ed’s wife Stephanie returns to the tiny outback town – thirteen years after she deserted Ed and their young son, Scott. Steph was his first and only love, and now Ed is being asked to forgive.

But how do you forgive what you will never forget?

My Review

The story begins with Helen Walsh, whose teenage daughter Felicity ran away ten years ago. Helen has never stopped thinking about her, and out of the blue, she receives a letter from Felicity. Helen travels to a town where she knows no one except the daughter she lost, now a grown woman. Both mother and daughter are understandably anxious about their reunion. As the story progress we learn about the circumstances of Felicity’s disappearance and Helen’s struggles over the years. Helen soon understands why her daughter chose this remote town, appreciating its strong sense of community. Despite knowing the visit would be challenging, Helen finds support from a kind stranger, Ed Collins, a garage proprietor who has lived in the town all his life. Ed, dealing with his own emotional turmoil, feels a connection with Helen, who is hoping to reunite with her daughter. Overall it is a heartwarming read to me.
