—Sunni Jeffers, award-winning author of Heaven’s Strain
“A heartwarming and engaging romance, Whenever You Come Around is a splendid read from start to finish!”
—Tamera Alexander, USA TODAY bestselling author of To Whisper Her Name and From a Distance
“A handsome cowboy, horses, and a hurting heroine make for a winning combination in this newest poignant story by Robin Lee Hatcher. A gently paced but delightful ride, Whenever You Come Around will take readers on a journey of healing right along with the characters. Readers will feel at home in Kings Meadow and won’t want to leave.”
—Jody Hedlund, bestselling author of Love Unexpected
“First loves find sweet second chances in Kings Meadow. Heartwarming, romantic, and filled with hope and faith, this is Hatcher at her best!”
—Lisa Wingate, New York Times bestselling author of Before We Were Yours, on Whenever You Come Around
“In Whenever You Come Around, Hatcher takes a look at the pain of secrets that kill the heart. But love indeed conquers all. Robin Lee Hatcher is the go-to classic romance author.”
—Rachel Hauck, award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of The Wedding Dress
“Robin Lee Hatcher has created an emotionally engaging romance, a story of healing and self-forgiveness wrapped up in a package about small-town life and a cowboy who lives a life honoring God. I want to live in Kings Meadow.”
—Sharon Dunn, author of Cold Case Justice and Wilderness Target, on Whenever You Come Around
“Whenever You Come Around is one of Robin Lee Hatcher’s pure-romance best, with a heroine waiting for total redemption and a strong hero of great worth. I find myself still smiling long after the final page has been read.”
—Hannah Alexander, author of the Hallowed Halls series
“In Love Without End, Robin Lee Hatcher once again takes us to Kings Meadow, Idaho, in a sweeping love story that captures the heart and soul of romance between two people who have every reason not to fall in love. With an interesting backstory interspersed among the contemporary chapters, and well-drawn, relatable secondary characters, Hatcher hits the mark with her warm and inviting love story.”
—Martha Rogers, author of the series Winds Across the Prairie and The Homeward Journey
“Love Without End, the first book in the new Kings Meadow Romance series, again intertwines two beautiful and heartfelt romances. One in the past and one in the future together make this a special read. I’m so glad Robin wrote a love story for Chet who suffered so much in A Promise Kept (January 2014). Kimberly, so wrong for him, becomes so right. Not your run-of-the-mill cowboy romance—enriched with deft writing and deep emotion.”
—Lyn Cote, author of Honor, Quaker Brides, Book One
“No one writes about the joys and challenges of family life better than Robin Lee Hatcher, and she’s at the top of her game with Love Without End. This beautiful and deeply moving story will capture your heart as it captured mine.”
—Margaret Brownley, New York Times bestselling author
“Love Without End, Book One in Robin Lee Hatcher’s new Kings Meadow series, is a delight from start to finish. The author’s skill at depicting the love and challenges of family has never been more evident as she deftly combines two love stories—past and present—to capture readers’ hearts and lift their spirits.”
—Marta Perry, author of The Forgiven, Keepers of the Promise, Book One
“I always expect excellence when I open a Robin Lee Hatcher novel. She never disappoints. The story here reminds me of a circle without end as Robin takes us through a modern-day romance while looping one character through a WWII tale of love and loss and the resurrection of hope and purpose. Love Without End touched my heart and guided me to some wonderful truths of how God’s love is a gift and a treasure.”
—Donita K. Paul, bestselling author
“A beautiful, heart-touching story of God’s amazing grace and how He can restore and make new that which was lost.”
—Francine Rivers, New York Times bestselling author, on A Promise Kept
