" Casey Dawes is charting a different route with a woman's story that doesn't discount the power of romance, but doesn't make itthe answer to everything either. Love, in this story, encompasses moret han a good night in bed. It's family, community, strangers on the street, and the magnificent landscape of Montana. And romance, if it happens, has to be a meeting of equals.

Home is Where the Heart is one of those books. " Sasha Paulsen, Napa Valley Register, May 16, 2019 "... a solid story with an interesting main character. I'd read more."
