Welcome to a Place Where Love Abides. Experience the splendor of love with four sweet romances-each one the story of hearts and homes renewed-authored by some of the leading names in Christian romance fiction. The Queen of the World and the Handyman by Barbara Jean Hicks Incensed by town gossip about Gran-Marie and her hired hand, Chloe Burnett determines to protect her grandmother's reputation at all costs, even if it means posing as the cocky handyman's fianc#65533;! But a near-tragedy reveals that nothing is as it seems to be-including the pretend engagement that no longer feels pretend. Beside the Still Waters by Barbara A. Curtis Interior designer K.C. McKenzie wants to restore her late husband's family farmhouse, as well as her memories. But the new owner, Chicago architect Raleigh Kincaid, refuses to sell. When he enters a restoration contest, however, Raleigh finds that he needs K.C.-in more ways than one. Home for the Heart by Shari MacDonald When spunky TV host Flynn Kelley inherits half of a historic Maryland estate, she squares off against a maddening-and endearing-figure from her troubled youth. Working together, can she and Charlie Kenilworth renovate the crumbling estate-and their wounded hearts?   Don't Look Back by Jane Orcutt One year after a divorce she didn't want, Laurie Golden has moved her children to small-town North Texas, hoping to restore what's left of her family and the family home. But skeletons in her family's closet reveal that history is sometimes best left in the past, and that the future is an open book in which life and love can be written.… (mehr)

This was 4 quick reads from 4 different authors about not just restoring homes, but restoring lives too. I
In in the 1st story you find Chloe who is determined to protect her grandmother from a handsome handyman she knows nothing about. I really liked the part where she tries to stop the town gossip by pretending the handyman is her man and how he "plays right along". It was a fun story.
Story #2 was about K.C. McKenzie who is an interior designer trying to restore her late husband's family farmhouse. But the new owner refuses to sell. It was enjoyable watching them work together to restore an old house and in the process, restore some things missing in their own lives.
Story #3 pushes two people together who want nothing to do with each other, but the historic estate is left to them to share. Now they must learn to let the past go and forgive and forget. A lesson we all have trouble with.
Story #4 is about Laurie Golden who moves her family to a small town in Texas, hoping to restore a family home. Her neighor wants to find a historical grave site on her property and the two of them quickly learn to work together, with a little help from her Mom and 2 kids.
All 4 stories were about restoration of homes, but I liked the way each author also mingled in with their stories the need each one of their characters had to restore a relationship or a past hurt in their own lives. The title of the book is right on - "Restoration & Romance" - a good combination. ( )
