Get yourself some sweet tea and perhaps just a small slice of pie and settle in for a visit to a place that feels like home.

Mercy Dane can take care of herself. Alone in the world, having aged out of the foster care system she has built a life for herself including her chosen family of coworkers at the Road Warrior Bar in Savannah.

Police Chief Lon Pittman is a good man doing an excellent job for his home town of Blessings, Georgia but he's never been able to forget the night he spent with a mystery woman he knows only as Lucky.

A PIECE OF MY HEART is book four in the Blessings, Georgia series by Sharon Sala. Gods I love this book. If you haven't read any of the Blessings, Georgia series you are in for a treat! I advise buying all of them. Yes, you can read this one as a stand-alone but why cheat yourself out of a truly lovely experience?

Sharon Sala is well-known as a gifted romance writer, but A PIECE OF MY HEART has a certain shine to it, a glow and depth that makes it even better than the already terrific series she has written. I was hooked by an early scene of a high-speed motorcycle chase (as witnessed by Ruby, one of my favorite characters) and continued to be entertained, moved and brought to laughter throughout the book. By the time I turned that last page, I knew this book was headed straight for my keeper shelf, to re-read whenever I need a dose of small town love to counteract the urban landscape outside my window.

After the small hints given in A PIECE OF MY HEART, I feel sure there will be a book five in the series. While I am waiting, Sharon Sala has other series I can explore, thank goodness!
