Book Description:
Grandmothers know best... especially these three grandmothers, all soldiers' brides. Their generation lived through war and peace, good times and bad, love and loss.

5-B Poppy Lane by Debbie Macomber

All her life, Ruth Shelton has loved visiting her grandmother in Cedar Cove, Washington. Now Ruth comes to ask advice about her own romance with a soldier -- and discovers a secret in her grandmother's past.

The Apple Orchard by Katherine Stone

Clara MacKenzie's granddaughter Elizabeth arrives at Clara's Oregon farm needing comfort. That's exactly what Clara offers -- and so does a childhood friend named Nick Lawton. But Nick wants to offer Elizabeth more than comfort. More than friendship...


Liberty Hall by Lois Faye Dyer

When Professor Chloe Abbot finds herself caught up in a troublesome mystery, she turns to her grandmother. She needs Winifred's expertise as a wartime code breaker. She doesn't need suggestions about her love life -- all of which involve an ex-marine Jake Morrissey!

This is a quick read of light and funny stories with great history as well. The historical aspect of World War 2 is very interesting and, unfortuneatly, believable. The 3 stories are intertwined by the 3 grandmothers and 3 granddaughters, making it fun to go from one story to the next.

The power of love -- past, present, and future -- takes center stage in this collection of three original stories by beloved romance authors Debbie Macomber, Katherine Stone, and Lois Faye Dyer.

Always, it's the grandmothers who know best, as their granddaughters turn to them for advice about love in time of war. In Debbie Macomber's "5-B Poppy Lane" (set in Cedar Cove, of course), Ruth Shelton is very much against the war in Iraq and very much for Paul Gordon, a soldier stationed in Iraq whom she first meets on the Internet. In Katherine Stone's "The Apple Orchard," Elizabeth returns to her grandmother's farm to find affirmation in her choice of fiancé but instead finds a childhood friend who now has a lot more in mind. In Lois Faye Dyer's "Liberty Hall," cautious English professor Chloe Abbott turns to her grandmother's experience as a WWII code breaker and to former Marine Jake Morrissey for protection when she discovers she's being stalked.
