Welcome to Blueberry Hill
Instead of spending the next phase of her life traveling around the world with her husband, Tara finds herself alone and starting over in her fifties.
Welcome to Blueberry Hill.
Tara Singleton was perfectly happy with her life, right up until the moment she cut the cake at her birthday party. As everyone cheered, her husband sheepishly admitted he'd lost everything, they were flat broke. And he was leaving her for his pregnant mistress, a personal trainer young enough to be his daughter. Thank goodness their three children are grown with lives of their own.
Instead of looking forward to traveling and reconnecting with her husband when he retired, she's going through a divorce and starting over. Tara desperately grasps the only option left and moves to Blueberry Hill. A small town nestled in the mountains of North Carolina, nothing like the big city she's leaving behind. A cottage bequeathed by a distant aunt almost twenty years ago, becomes a second chance to figure out who she is, and to create the life she’s always dreamed of.
Her oldest son, Evan, lives across the country with his wife. He's on the fast track at the company. Everything he's ever wanted is within reach.
Ally, the middle daughter, has floundered in her career and relationships. The news hits her the hardest, causing her to take a hard look at the relationship she's in with a man who can't seem to commit.
Then there's Christina, the baby of the family who wants nothing more than to be there for her dad, even if it means taking sides.
Take a leisurely drive though the winding mountain roads, relax in a rocking chair on the front porch of the general store with a glass of sweet tea, and get to know the residents of Blueberry Hill. This is the first book in a new woman's fiction series that follows Tara, her children, and the residents of Blueberry Hill.

Escape to Blueberry Hill, where second chances bloom and new beginnings are always within reach…
In the first book, Tara found out her husband had lost all their money and had cheated on her with a woman the same age as her daughter. Married right after college and with no employable skills, Tara found herself adrift. After settling into the cottage she inherited from a distant aunt, Tara met Will, a man from her past.

For themselves and their growing family.
For Ally, the middle daughter, moving to Blueberry Hill after a toxic relationship was her chance to reclaim her independence. She’s pouring everything into her flower business and the tiny house she’s building. Love is not on the agenda, especially not with her mysterious new neighbor, Colton Matthews. Once a Major League Baseball star, Colton is hiding from the world, and perhaps from himself. But as sparks fly between them, Ally must decide if she’s ready to open her heart again, or if her past will keep her from the future she deserves.
And then there’s Christina, the youngest daughter, who’s been keeping secrets. While the rest of the family wonders if there’s someone new in her life, the truth behind her long weekends might surprise them all.

The heartwarming conclusion to the beloved Blueberry Hill series
In Blueberry Hill, every ending is just the beginning of another story…
Seven months pregnant and determined to raise her baby alone, Christina carries a secret that could upend everything. Her baby's father is Marco Castellano, billionaire heir to a fashion empire—the man she spent one unforgettable night with in Miami.
They never exchanged names. But when Christina later recognized him in the tabloids, surrounded by models and endless scandals, her heart sank. How could she tell a man like that about their child? His powerful family would see her as a gold-digger, or worse, try to take her baby away. Better to stay silent. Better to protect Violet.
But secrets have a way of revealing themselves in small towns.
As Tara and Will prepare for their lakeside wedding and the grand opening of The Blueberry Inn—with Patty's memory blooming in the garden Tara planted in her honor—the entire family faces new crossroads. Ally is finally healing from heartbreak, pouring everything into her honey business and trying to forget Colton Matthews. Ryan has found his place at last, balancing college courses with gaming friends his own age and learning carpentry from Will. Even Evan has discovered purpose beyond the corporate world, while Emily embraces motherhood with baby Grace.
Until Marco arrives in Blueberry Hill.
One look at Christina pushing a stroller by the lake, one glimpse of baby Violet's unmistakable eyes, and his world shatters. When his fiery sister Sophia flies in to defend the family honor, she discovers Christina never even knew Marco's name—and finds herself unexpectedly drawn to James Roberts, the reclusive bestselling author who sees past her designer armor to the vulnerable woman beneath.
As autumn paints the mountains gold and The Blueberry Inn opens its doors to leaf peepers and locals alike, everyone must choose: Christina between protecting her daughter and trusting the man she never forgot. Marco between his billionaire lifestyle and the family he never knew he wanted. Ally between playing it safe and giving Colton one more chance. And Sophia between the perfection she's always demanded and the messy, beautiful reality of true love.
In a town where chosen family runs deeper than blood, where Bertha the goat wears seasonal tutus, and where even billionaires learn to stack firewood, the Castellano siblings discover what money can never buy: a place where love is real, and every ending feeds a new beginning.
Heartfelt, tender, and brimming with small-town magic, The Blueberry Inn is the unforgettable conclusion to the beloved Blueberry Hill series. Perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber, Robyn Carr, and Susan Mallery, this multi-generational story celebrates second chances, the courage of single mothers, and the families we choose.
