Denise Hunter ~ Giveaway!

*You can earn up to 4 entries in this giveaway. Read below for details*

About the book:
Meridith believes she is capable of weathering any storm. But she's never experienced a love powerful enough to uproot her...until now.

Meridith Ward has crafted a carefully ordered life to make up for the chaos that plagued her childhood years. But one phone call upsets all that. Within the span of several minutes, Meredith learns that the father who abandoned her is dead and she's been named the sole guardian of his other three children. She nervously heads to Nantucket to care for the siblings she's never met with plans to stay until their uncle returns from his trip before relinquishing guardianship to him.

She arrives to find the children living in Summer House, a Bed & Breakfast that's falling apart around them. Meridith wants to move on as soon as possible, but the inn will never sell in its dilapidated condition. Then an itinerant handyman, Jake, shows up with an offer she can't refuse.

Much like the powerful ocean just a short walk from her deck, Jake appeals to Meridith. But she senses he is also capable of pulling her under in a heartbeat. What if the thing she fears the most is exactly what she needs? Can she trust God with the details and relish the adventure?

Here is the link to my review of Driftwood Lane.

I would love to be entered in this giveaway. After reading your review it makes me wonder if an opinion from an older reader might be completely different. I know that books I read 40 yrs ago don't hold the same appeal for me today sooo the age thing may make difference.

Yes, please enter me in this giveaway. I'm not familiar with Denise Hunter's writings, and would enjoy reading this particular story. I sense some humor and a love story, and most importantly a dependence on our Lord for guidance. Thank you for this giveaway and the chance to win it. I sure hope I do.
