The latest book, On Magnolia Lane, by Denise Hunter, completes the Blue Ridge Romance series.  You will meet Daisy Pendleton as she is preparing arrangements in her flower shop.  When Daisy visits her father's grave later that day, she notices one of the arrangements that she just sold to a young woman who was new to their town.  As Daisy wonders as to the whys of what she is seeing, she has a bad feeling that she may not like the answer to her question!

Daisy has been counseling with her pastor, Jack McReady, for several years, so when she learns that this woman is actually her sister, she immediately seeks Jack's insight.  Daisy has learned that both her parents have kept the truth from her that she has an older sister!

During the time that Jack is assisting Daisy with her latest struggle, his best friends are encouraging him to sign up for online dating.  After Jack takes the plunge and joins the app, you will not believe it when his friends help him make a connection with none other than Daisy online!

You know there is a potential for this friendship that has been growing between Daisy and Jack to hit a rough patch when Daisy learns the truth about what is going on.  Daisy is not simply talking to a man named T.J., but actually to Jack, her pastor who has recently become a close friend.  Hang on to see where this friendship will land after Daisy sees a different side of her friend and pastor.  Will her belief in God's truth allow her to forgive Jack, as well as, her parents for misleading her?
