It also includes the owner of the local bookshop, Noah O'Brien who also wants to be a writer and whose bookshop seems to be a community meeting place for walkers. His business neighbor Bart Buchanan whom everyone calls Bear and his two grown daughters, Katherine and Cora Lee. Cora Lee has had feelings for Noah since he came to town. Noah is just now seeing her for the person she is after conversations on the building's roof, both having apartments on the second floor. Bear is keeping a secret from everyone in town. He'd always noticed the neighbor girl since the beginning. A few years after his wife leaves, he starts a relationship with the local woman who always catches his attention.

Jodi Thomas takes her fans and readers back to Someday Valley with the next book in the series, THE WILD LAVENDER BOOKSHOP. Lost siblings find each other while one is running from danger. There are three romances taking place within the book. Noah O'Brien faces his past when he finds romance with Cora Lee Buchanan, who comes out from her sister's shadow. Her father Bear Buchanan is keeping a long-time love affair a secret from everyone. Deputy Danny Davis is assigned to protect the new visitor in town who doesn't want his help. Some characters make a return in this book from the first book in the Someday Valley series, Strawberry Lane. Jodi Thomas writes a story with love, romance, danger and long-lost family that keeps the reader engaged and wondering what happens next. This reader enjoyed reading more about the somewhat quirky characters. She also keeps you wondering if Danny and Andi will come together. There is also a look into the past of the area and the life of Eliza Dosela that will keep the reader wondering what actually happened. I recommend you take a trip to Someday Valley and peek into the lives they revolve around THE WILD LAVENDER BOOKSHOP.
The New York Times bestselling author’s Honey Creek and Someday Valley novels, set in small-town Texas and featuring an “inviting setting and quirky, good-hearted characters” (Publishers Weekly) feature slow-burning romance and sweetly satisfying stories that are perfect for fans of Robyn Carr, Susan Mallery, Susan Wiggs, and Debbie Macomber. The trees that circle Someday Valley’s downtown of Honey Creek are dressed in their fall finest, providing a pretty backdrop for the local businesses—including the little bookshop loved by schoolteacher Cora Lee Buchanan. There in the cafe, under the watchful eye of owner Noah O’Brien, Cora Lee and her sister, Katherine, meet each Wednesday. Their talk mostly revolves around one subject: their father, known to everyone in town as Bear.
Both Cora Lee and Katherine believe it’s time Bear found love again, and they’re compiling a list of prospects in a secret notebook. They’ve no idea Bear is aware of their plan—or that he has a secret of his own. As for the sisters, Katherine, beautiful and self-absorbed, is in search of her third husband, while Cora Lee is in love for the first time. On warm nights, she climbs up to her building’s roof to chat with Noah and listen to the melody of the water below. Yet there is more intrigue afoot in Honey Creek . . .
Andy Delane has arrived in town to hear the last wishes of the father she never met. She was shocked to get a letter from lawyer Jackson Landry, and has few expectations—of this mysterious will, or of Landry’s skill . . . But fall always brings changes, and this year there will be enough to alter not just the lives of those who call Honey Creek home, but the future of Someday Valley itself . . .
