"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Matthew 5:14-15

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Matthew 13:45-46

Tomorrow's Garden by Amanda Cabot

Tomorrow's Garden by Amanda Cabot is the final saga of the Texas Dreams series. This was my first exposure to Amanda's writing and I found the book to be a delightful read. Amanda weaves the story of Harriet Kirk, a school teacher who recently relocated to Ladreville, Texas with her five  siblings. She leaves an unpleasant past, hoping for a new and brighter future in a new setting. Harriet has no thoughts of marriage, but is committed to rearing her younger brothers and sisters.

Former Texas Ranger, Lawrence Wood, returns to the town only planning to fulfill his six-month contract as mayor and sheriff. He has no plans of becoming romantically interested in anyone. The town holds too many memories of his previous foolishness.

I enjoyed this novel and through reading it became interested in reading the first two books of the series to learn the stories of various townspeople.
