Have you ever been to Blessings, Georgia? You should take a trip there someday.
There aren’t any tourist destinations, but there is a feeling within that sleepy
Southern town unlike any place I’ve ever been.
Every time I begin a new story, I get to revisit the residents, some of whom are
aggravating, and some who will melt your heart upon introduction. But they all
have one thing in common. When someone is in need, they come together without
judgment, giving of themselves and their time, sharing joy and grief.
I wish I lived there. Every time I finish a story, I feel lost…like I moved away
from my own special Eden. Everyone should live in a place like this at least
once in their lives, if for no other reason than to be reminded of the good in
the world, and what love for your fellow man really means.
COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS was
the novella that introduced my readers to this place and the people who live
there. Each story is a stand-alone book, but with continuing characters that pop
in and out of ensuing episodes of life in Blessings.
The latest saga to come out of Blessings is a story called A PIECE OF MY HEART. I know
I left a piece of my heart behind when it was over.
Whether you start at the first, or in the middle, or with the newest, it won’t
really matter. All the stories stand alone, without the need to read in
sequence. You don’t have to start at the beginning…but you really, really,
REALLY should start somewhere. Why not with this one?
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author
Sharon Sala writes dreams come true in her newest contemporary romance
She's never had a home
Growing up in a troubled foster home, Mercy Dane knew she could never rely on
anyone but herself. She's used to giving her all to people who don't give her a
second glance, so when she races to Blessings, Georgia, to save the life of an
accident victim, she's flabbergasted when the grateful town opens its arms to
her. She never dreamed she'd ever find family or friends-or a man who looks at
her as if she hung the stars.
Until she finds peace in his arms
Police Chief Lon Pittman is getting restless living in sleepy little
Blessings. But the day Mercy Dane roars into his life on the back of a
motorcycle, practically daring him to pull her over, he's lost. There's
something about Mercy's tough-yet-vulnerable spirit that calls to Lon, and he
will do anything in his power to make her realize that home isn't just where the
heart is-home is where their heart is.
