Product Description:
Dear Reader,
I have something to confide in you. I think my husband, Dave, might be having an affair. I found an earring in his pocket, and it's not mine. I'm also worried because some jewelry was recently stolen from an old woman—and Dave used to visit her a lot.
You see, he's a pastor. And a good man. I can't believe he's guilty of anything, but why won't he tell me where he's been when he comes home so late?
Reader, I'd love to hear what you think. I also want to tell you what's going on with your other friends in Cedar Cove. Like Sheriff Troy Davis, to mention one. His long-ago love, Faith Beckwith, just moved here!
So come on in and join me for a cup of tea.
Emily Flemming

Book number eight in the "Cedar Cove" series has proven to be as heartwarming as the previous seven. Emily Flemming suspects her pastor husband, Dave, is having an affair. He is never home and does not appear as attentive as before. When Emily finds a pair of diamond earrings in Dave's suit jacket, she is almost certain there is another woman, but she is too afraid to confront him with her suspicions. Instead she imagines the worst and lets her thoughts run away with her. When Emily finally confronts Dave about her suspicions, he breaks down and insists he is not seeing another woman, but has been working a second job to cover their mounting expenses. When she shows him the earrings she found in his jacket, he is dumbfounded and does not understand how they got there. When they learn the elderly woman he had been visiting prior to her death had several items of jewelry that were reported as missing, Dave, fearful that he would be arrested for the theft of the jewelry and at Emily's insistence, went to his friend Roy McAfee, a private investigator, to talk to him. Roy insisted he go to the sheriff, and Dave is ready to believe everyone will find him guilty, though he has not done anything wrong. Soon the real thief is revealed and Dave's good name remains unblemished.
Meanwhile we get a peek into the lives of other residents: Judge Olivia Griffin learns she has breast cancer and needs surgery. Ben Rhodes and Charlotte, Olivia's mother, want to cancel their cruise, ... Read More

This was the first Macomber book I have read. The first and last I should say. I picked it up because the synopsis on the back sounded interesting. I was hoping for a nice light vacation book. The book was frustrating because each chapter throughout the first half of the book introduced new characters and subplots. How was the reader supposed to keep all of these people and problems straight? First it was talking about one family, then it went to some other lady with cancer and another group of people. And so on. By the time it got back to the first family, I just didn't care.

While it's not necessary to read the other books in this series, I would recommend doing so. I always enjoy a visit to Cedar Cove.

I am a huge fan of Debbie Macomber, even though her novels are very unlike most of the kind of books I enjoy. I have followed her "street" series from the beginning and this is a fine addition to it.
