Destiny, Ohio a quite little town where generations grow up together, neighbors offer helping hands and the local fire department rescues wayward kitties from tall, tall trees.

Destiny is also where Amy Bright, owner of Under the Covers local bookstore and successful match maker for her friends resides. Just recently Amy has helped two of her best friends find their match and she hasn't given up on helping her best friend Logan find his happily ever after. But tragedy strikes the small town and Logan begins to fall into a deep depression.

Logan, a local fire fighter faced the worst possible scenario a fireman can face and it has knocked him down. He doesn't know how to come back from his nightmare but his best bud is right in his face and won't let him give up. Unbeknown to Logan something has shifted in their relationship and Amy realizes she loves him. Amy is so shy she doesn't know what she should do so she writes her feelings down and sends them to Logan, from A Secret Admirer.

WILLOW SPRINGS is a charming novel that doesn't rush into anything. The story unravels bit by bit drawing readers into the character's lives. Readers long to find out if Logan can win his battle with his personal demons, if Amy can find her voice and reach for what she desires most, and whether or not these best friends can find their happiness in each other.

WILLOW SPRINGS is the kind of novel that one savors on a brisk morning drinking a warm cup of coffee. You need to be patient and let Toni Blake tell the story in her own time and take pleasure in the experience.
