This is the start of the “Family Blessings” series which focuses on the Sheehan family, their extended family, friends and town members. I love reading about the Sheehan family and I hope there are more to this series! There is so much love, fun times, and real life situations portrayed in every book.
In this first book we are introduced to Joe, his mom, and angry daughter Amelia who is abandoned suddenly by her mom on Joe’s doorstep. Clair Conley moves into town after inheriting a mansion and has dreams to turn it into a foster home and equestrian therapy.
Claire receives major push back from town members about providing a safe haven for troubled and neglected foster kids; but with the help of Joe, Bertie and Amelia her dream is finally coming true. Claire is able to reach out to many town members, including Joe’s daughter; to show them how a safe place, equestrian therapy and animals can help heal a person.
I highly recommend this book and this entire series! This will be a set of books that I keep on my bookshelf to read again and again! I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.
About the Book:
A Place to Call Home
Lawman Joe Sheehan is desperate to bond with the daughter he’s just discovered he has. But as a virtual stranger to twelve-year-old Amelia, the task seems impossible. Until Claire Conley moves to town. A social worker renovating a mansion into a foster home, Claire is the first person to get through to Amelia. Falling for the single dad was not on Claire’s to-do list. But with Joe and Amelia around, the house finally starts to feel like home. Claire’s ready to fight to convince Joe that together they’ve done more than fix a house…they’ve built a family.
