Happy Friday!

Spring seems like the perfect time to pick up colorful books, like this new one from Melody Carlson.

First Line: Dillon Michaels was fed up—but it wasn't with dinner.

From Page 56: As Dillon wiped down the counters and stove and table, scrubbed the sink, and swept the floor, she could almost feel her grandmother's presence . . . and instead of feeling weary of the housework, she felt strangely soothed.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Home is the place to heal, right? At least, that's what Dillon Michaels is hoping as she leaves her disappointing career and nonstarter love life behind to help her grieving and aging grandfather on his small Oregon farm. The only problem? Her eccentric mother beat her there and has taken over Dillon's old room. After a few nights sleeping on a sagging sofa, Dillon is ready to give up, until she receives an unlikely gift--her grandfather's run-down vintage camp trailer, which she quickly resolves to restore with the help of Jordan Atwood, the handsome owner of the local hardware store.

But just when things are finally beginning to run smoothly, Dillon's noncommittal ex-boyfriend shows up with roses . . . and a ring.
