Known for her sweet Regency romances, author Sarah M. Eden ventures into new territory with her latest novel, Longing for Home. Set in nineteenth-century Wyoming, the story comes to life with endearing characters, complicated town dynamics, and plenty of romantic tension. The tale follows Katie, a fiery heroine with such an intriguing past, I found myself reading well into the night. There are also two likable suitors, so the swoon-worthy scenes never end! I was touched by the story’s themes of family, friendship, and hope. While the book ends with a cliffhanger, Longing for Home is still one of the most delightful romance reads of the year. I can’t wait to get my hands on its anticipated sequel.
