Finding Forever in Pelican Crossing
A heartwarming tale of second chances
About the Book:
When Paige Harper arrives in Pelican Crossing
to visit her ailing grandmother, she plans a short trip—just enough time to
make sure her grandmother recovers before heading back to her busy city life.
But when her grandmother unexpectedly passes away, Paige is hesitant to leave
the small coastal town, unable to shake the pull of its quiet charm.
Bob Reed, the laid-back local vet, has settled back into his life in
Pelican Crossing after spending a year at Colorado University. He is surprised
when he receives an offer to apply for a permanent position at the university—a
tempting opportunity to embrace a very different path. Torn between his love
for the peaceful coastal life and the draw of a more structured, academic
future, Bob faces a tough choice.
When Paige and Bob cross paths, they’re worlds apart—she, the city
professional, and he, the easy-going surfer. But a series of unexpected
encounters brings them closer, and what begins as an unlikely friendship turns
into something much more.
With Bob facing a career-defining decision and Paige bound to her life in the
city, they must determine if their newfound connection is strong enough to
overcome the obstacles in their way. Can they find a way to be together, or
will the demands of their separate lives keep them apart?
For fans of small-town romances and heartwarming stories of unexpected love.
My Review:
Finding Forever in Pelican Crossing is the ninth book in the Pelican Crossing series. This story brings together an unlikely couple, but as always, love finds a way. I absolutely adored Paige and Bob's story. Difficult situations and decisions line their paths. The story is multi-dimensional with complex characters. A wonderful small town romance.
I love the Pelican Crossing series. The author writes realistic stories with likable characters and believable situations and emotions. I love the author's writing style. She takes great care in how she develops characters, tackles tough situations, and brings realistic events to life.

Meet the Author:
After
a career in education, Maggie Christensen began writing contemporary women’s
fiction portraying mature women facing life-changing situations, and historical
fiction set in her native Scotland. Her travels inspire her writing, be it her
trips to visit family in Scotland, in Oregon, USA or her home on Queensland’s
beautiful Sunshine Coast. Maggie writes of mature heroines coming to terms with
changes in their lives and the heroes worthy of them. Maggie has been called the
queen of mature age fiction and her writing has been described by one
reviewer as like a nice warm cup of tea.
It is warm, nourishing, comforting and embracing.
From the small town in Scotland where she grew up, Maggie was lured to Australia by the call to ‘Come and teach in the sun’. Once there, she worked as a primary school teacher, university lecturer and in educational management. Now living with her husband of over thirty years on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, she loves walking on the deserted beach in the early mornings and having coffee by the river on weekends. Her days are spent surrounded by books, either reading or writing them – her idea of heaven!
