Author: Cynthia Herron
Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: December 31, 2018
Is the sure thing worth risking for the possibility of maybe?
Charla Winthrop, a savvy business woman seeking a permanent lifestyle change in small-town Ruby, learns that things aren’t always what they appear when she takes up residence in a house steeped in charm and a hint of mystery. Rumor has it that Sam Packard the town carpenter is her go-to guy for home remodeling, but can Charla convince him to help her—with no strings attached, of course?
Alone far too long, Sam’s prayed that God would send him a wife and a mother for his daughters. However, the new Ruby resident is hardly what he imagined. A new place to call “home,” the possibility of what might be, and the answer to someone’s prayers unite this unlikely pair with the help of the town’s residents.
Nestled in the Ozarks’ hills and hollows is Ruby, Missouri, a quaint, cozy town where “neighbor” is merely another word for “friend.” Ruby will charm and delight as will her quirky, lovable characters who will steal your heart, but hand it right back—with whipped cream and a cherry on top. Savor your new friends’ sorrows and successes in the community where offbeat is perfect and mishaps and mayhem never tasted so good.

MY REVIEW
When Charla decides to leave her busy, meaningless life in Boston and move to the small town of Ruby, Missouri she is looking forward to the change of pace and to beginning the journey to figuring out what she truly wants in life. While she's planning there are other that are praying for her to come into their lives.
Sam and his young daughters, Faith and Hope, have been hoping for someone to fill the void that was left when their wife and mother died in an accident three years ago. Could the new Bostonian in town be the answer to that prayer? Charla's presence in Ruby is going to be a game changer in more ways than one and usher a time of self discovery, truthfulness, and forgiveness in multiple lives.
From the beginning I was completely and utterly charmed by Her Hope Discovered. From the Mayberry-esque town and all its charismatic array of characters to the breathtaking descriptions of Ruby and the surrounding Ozarks, you feel yourself transported to this wonderful and charming place with every page.
Though sweet, and mostly predictable, there is just enough subtle conflict to keep it interesting until the end, and the theme of love and forgiveness that flows throughout leaves you all warm and fuzzy. Very sweet story!
