ABOUT THE BOOK For the Abbott siblings, the Green Mountain state has always been an idyllic place to call home.

Book Review – Meant for Love by Marie Force - The McCarthy's of Gansett Island Series

Meant for Love is book 10 of Marie Force’s The McCarthy’s of Gansett Island Series.  This series is one of my favorites, and Marie does such a wonderful job creating characters that are easy to love, but aren't so perfect that they make me hate them.  In this book, Force successfully balances the main story-line, which bringing in some of the earlier characters that I've grown to love.  My heart broke for both Jenny and Alex and what they were going through.  When I first read Jenny’s letter previously in the series, my heart broke for the woman who was still trying to pull her life together ten years after 9/11.  When Alex’s family was introduced, my heart again broke for him and what his family is going through in dealing with his mother’s dementia.  The journey they take together feels genuine and realistic.  Force also does a great job of telling a compelling love story involving a woman in her late 30’s.  So many books in the romance gen...
