Praise for Sunset Bay Sanctuary

"Grief and loss define this slow burning contemporary romance featuring a large cast of folksy characters who infuse the first installment in Snopek's Sunset Bay series with lots of down home charm and many examples of tough love. Fans of small town series with character driven plots, such as those by Susan Wiggs and Debbie Macomber, will find that Sunset Bay hits the spot."
