Three adult daughters are reunited when their father, a pastor at Grace Chapel, passes away. They meet again at their family home, an old Victorian house that is in disrepair. The sisters, though miles apart in demeanor and station in life, come together to repair and renovate the home and transform it into the Grace Chapel Inn.
A Christian easy readable "feel good" gentle read. While it started out slow, I'm glad I stuck with it. I came to love the sisters and smiled at the end.

Excellent story of a woman caught between taking care of her elderly mother and her children and dealing with her siblings and a husband who is gone most of the year. Loved Lisa Samson's writing style. Christian fiction, but not preachy. Down-to-earth real people!
