MacLeod's Cove Series

When Jen MacLeod arrives at her childhood home in New Zealand with her five-year-old son Liam, she's carrying more than just suitcase—she's carrying years of secrets. Fleeing an abusive marriage in London, she finds refuge in the rambling coastal cottage where generations of her family have weathered life's storms. But MacLeod's Cove isn't quite the sanctuary she remembered. Her mother Kate is struggling with her own challenges, and the family home is crumbling around them. Worse still, a shocking discovery reveals that the cottage that has sheltered the MacLeod family for nearly a century may not legally belong to them at all. As Jen works to rebuild her shattered confidence and help Liam heal from the trauma they've both endured, she must also uncover the truth about her family's past—and confront the possibility that their sanctuary could be lost forever. When Sam Boyd, her first love, reappears in her life, Jen faces an unexpected complication. Sam is everything her ex-husband wasn't—kind, patient, and genuinely caring—but Jen isn't sure she can trust her own judgment anymore. As she slowly begins to heal, surrounded by the fierce love of her mother and sisters, Jen discovers that sometimes moving forward means understanding where you came from. But when her past catches up with her in the most frightening way possible, she'll need every ounce of courage she's found to protect the new life she's building. Set against the stunning backdrop of New Zealand's coast, Sanctuary at MacLeod's Cove is a story about the healing power of family, the courage it takes to start over, and the truth that home isn't just a place—it's where you're free to be yourself. Sometimes the greatest journey is the one that brings you home. *** —MacLeod's Cove— A Second Spring at MacLeod's Cove (Introductory Novella) Sanctuary at MacLeod's Cove The Heart of MacLeod's Cove Escape to MacLeod's Cove Second Chances at MacLeod's Cove Coming Home to MacLeod's Cove The Secret at MacLeod's Cove
