The Magnolia Inn Kindle Edition
A #1 Washington Post and Amazon Charts bestseller.
New York Times bestselling author Carolyn Brown brings together two wounded hearts in a Texas romance of second chances and twice-in-a-lifetime true love.
Inheriting the Magnolia Inn, a Victorian home nestled in the East Texas pines, is a fantasy come true for Jolene Broussard. After living with the guilt of failing to rescue her self-destructive mother, Jolene knows her aunt and uncle’s B&B is the perfect jump start for a new life and a comforting place to call home. There’s just one hitch: stubborn and moody carpenter Tucker Malone. He’s got a half interest in the Magnolia Inn, and he’s planting his dusty cowboy boots squarely in the middle of her dream.
Ever since his wife’s death, Tucker’s own guilt and demons have left him as guarded as Jolene. The last thing he expects is for his new partner to stir something inside him he thought was gone forever. And as wary as Jolene is, she may have found a kindred spirit—someone she can help, and someone she can hold on to.
Restoring the Magnolia Inn is the first step toward restoring their hearts. Will they be able to let go of the past and trust each other to do it together?

Review
“Chock-full of Carolyn Brown’s signature country charm, The Magnolia Inn is a sweet and heartwarming story of two people trying to make the most of their lives, even when they have no idea what exactly is at stake.” ―FreshFiction
“Brown tugs hard at the heartstrings with an emotional contemporary about a grieving widower and a vulnerable bartender…The author does a first-rate job of depicting the devastating stages of grief, provides a simple but appealing plot with a sympathetic hero and heroine and a cast of lovable supporting characters, and wraps it all up with a happily ever after to cheer for.” ―Publishers Weekly

The narrator was fantastic with all the characters different voices
Such a sweet story of finding love after loss.
Lovely second chance small town romance.
For those of you who are interested, there is no strong language/swearing, physical violence or abuse (which does crop up a lot in romance books these days), or sex scenes. It is just a sweet romance with characters who learn to pick up the pieces and move on with life and love.

Although the main topics were quite heavy, the author's use of small town Southern lifestyles, humor, and vocabulary lightened the angst to make the story almost unbearably sweet.
The resolutions of the entwined stories were not at all expected, and towards the end I sobbed (reallly sobbed) at how all the characters made peace with their respective realities.
Just a wonderful, wonderful story. The author's remarks in her acknowledgements at the end were much appreciated, as well as her choices of geographical settings, which were accurately depicted.

Jolene spent her Summers with her aunt and uncle at their Inn. When they decide to retire and go travelling, they gift the Inn, half to Jolene and half to her cousin Reuben. When Reuben sells his half straight away, Jolene isn't sure what will happen.
Tucker is a young widower, having lost his way a little he is a good carpenter and has a good reputation. Fate brings Tucker and Jolene together as business partners. This book is their story.
Then there's Dotty, Flossie, and Lucy, all ladies of a similar age to Sugar. They've been friends for years and are a support network for each other. Once Sugar goes on her travels, they adopt Jolene into their group, and they have lots of advice for her.
It was a great read, and I highly recommend this to anyone who likes a good story, with humour and some romance. There are some great quotes in this book!
