Product Description
Dear Reader,I have something to confide in you. I think my husband, Dave, might be having an affair. I found an earring in his pocket, and it's not mine. I'm also worried because some jewelry was recently stolen from an old woman—and Dave used to visit her a lot. You see, he's a pastor. And a good man. I can't believe he's guilty of anything, but why won't he tell me where he's been when he comes home so late? Reader, I'd love to hear what you think. I also want to tell you what's going on with your other friends in Cedar Cove. Like Sheriff Troy Davis, to mention one. His long-ago love, Faith Beckwith, just moved here! So come on in and join me for a cup of tea. Emily Flemming

Always a Pleasure to Return to Cedar Cove September 8, 2008
13 out of 15 found this review helpful
Cedar Cove has become a favorite city for thousands of readers like me who enjoy gossipy writing, small towns filled with good-spirited characters, and a little romance and drama to keep things interesting.
Debbie Macomber does not disappoint with this eighth installment set in the soap-opera like town. Emily and Dave Flemming take center stage in this novel as the local pastor keeps important information from his wife. With his much-later-than usual hours and the discovery of some diamond earrings in his jacket, Emily believes Dave is either an adulterer or a thief. Old friends Roy McAfee, the local private investigator, and Sheriff Troy Davis will get involved before this is all put to rest.
In the meantime, Sheriff Davis has some important personal challenges to face as he anguishes over lost love Faith Beckwith and grapples with his daughter Megan's health issues. Old friends like Olivia and Jack Griffin, Grace Harding, Teri Polgar, Christie Levitt, and Rachel Pendergast reappear and let the reader share what is happening in their lives. In addition, new characters like Tanni Bliss and her mom, fabric artist Shirley Bliss, appear and begin what will undoubtedly be the fodder of future sagas.
My only complaints with this installment are: first, my personal favorite, Mary Ellen Bowman, only got a brief mention; second, the mystery surrounding Pastor Flemming was one I figured out very early in the book (maybe I trust him more than his wife does) ; and lastly, I want another Cedar Cove book immediately. They are addictive! Fortunately, in just another month we will have a Cedar Cove Christmas, but must wait a full year to find out more about what will transpire at 92 Pacific Boulevard, the home of Troy Davis.
So just sit back and enjoy this wonderful little town. August 31, 2008

The eighth book of the quaint town of Cedar Cove once again proves Deb Macomber is the queen of contemporary romance. The secrets start early in her latest offering as Pastor Flemming's behavior becomes more and more surreptitious. Circumstances go from bad to worse when his wife, Emily discovers a woman's earring inside his jacket pocket. With dodgie answers and no valid excuse for his late-night rendezvous, Emily suspects he is having an affair. An affair in Cedar Cove? Ah, but the answers to her husbands late-night trists thickens when reports that a woman of the Pastor's congregation, who recently passed away, had her jewelry stolen. So what is Emily to do? Either her husband is an adulterer or he is stealing from the homes of the recently deceased. Much like all of Deb's books the sixth book is loaded with side plots and all the familiar characters. So just sit back and enjoy this wonderful little town.

I've enjoyed fully the two Debbie Macomber series that I've read. The characters become friends and I'm always eager to find out what happens in the next installment. This is a fun and easy read.

I discovered this series a year ago, and was fortunate enough to read the first seven in rapid succession.
Unfortunately, 8 Sandpiper Way was a somewhat disappointing read for me. Although it is billed as Dave and Emily Fleming's story, they share center stage with three other storylines.
I enjoy catching up on characters from previous stories, but I feel Dave and Emily really got shortchanged in this one.

Another hit! Debbie Macomber has done it again. All of our favorite characters, with a few more additions. I gobbled this book up in just a few short sittings, how can you help it?
I won't go into all the details, but Emily is so sure her husband, Pastor Dave Flemming is having an affair. She finds a set of diamond earrings in his coat pocket, he comes home late sometimes and after making a phone call, Emily calls the number back and it is a woman! There are two teenagers in here, searching for who they are, and end up with a whole lot more. Troy broke it off with Faith, but Megan really seems to like Faith, who ran into her by accident when Faith started working at the doctor's office.
I can't WAIT to read the next installment, 92 Pacific Blvd. It will be a longgg year before it comes out!
