Blue Ridge Sunrise By Denise Hunter
Former free spirit Zoe Collins swore she’d never again set foot in Copper Creek or speak to the man who broke her heart. But return she must when her beloved Granny dies, leaving the family legacy to Zoe—a peach orchard nestled at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
When Zoe returns home with her daughter and boyfriend Kyle, she finds that she’s the only person in town who doesn’t expect her to give up the life she’s established far away from Copper Creek. Everyone believes she was born to run the orchard, but how can she make it her home after so many years?
Cruz Huntley never quite got over his first love, Zoe Collins, the little sister of his best friend Brady. Not when she cheated on him during their “break,” not when she took off to parts unknown with good-for-nothing Kyle Jenkins, and not even now—five years later.
As life-changing decisions and a history with Cruz hang over Zoe’s head, tensions rise between her and Kyle. Even as she comes to terms with the shifting relationships in her life, Zoe still isn’t sure if she can remain in Copper Creek with her new responsibilities . . . and her first love.

In 1996, inspired by the death of her grandfather, Denise began her first book, writing while her children napped. Two years later it was published, and she's been writing ever since. Her husband says he inspires all her romantic stories, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too!
When Denise isn't orchestrating love lives on the written page, she enjoys traveling with her family, drinking good coffee, and playing drums. Denise makes her home in Indiana where she and her husband raised three boys and are currently enjoying an empty nest.

My Thoughts...
I am Denise's biggest cheerleader. I own every book she has ever penned. And every one of them or fabulous and always leave me wanting more. The only problem that I have is she does not write fast enough for me. With that said...
Blue Ridge did not disappoint it was a true Hunter book.
Well developed characters, Cruz, Kyle and Zoe are ones you will connect with they are so real.
You are never going to want to leave Copper Creek. But will Zoe want to leave is the question?
The plot is so well thought out and you are going to start this book and read it until you reach the very last page.
I gave this book 5 stars two times. I HIGHLY recommend it.

Hunter is really good. Can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteI plan to do nothing tomorrow evening but read this book. Thanks for your glowing review.
ReplyDeleteIs this a series, have I missed any books?
ReplyDeleteJean from what I am seeing, this is the first book in a new series called A Blue Ridge Romance series. There's a second one coming in May called "Honeysuckle Dreams". It looks like it's only these two books.
DeleteHope that answers your question :-)
Miss Jean, Trixi, is correct. You have not missed any.
DeleteI stand corrected, there will be three books in this series. I asked Denise and that's what she said, I don't know the title or when it will be out though. More books to look forward to!
