ABOUT THE BOOK
From Sarah M. Eden, the USA Today Bestselling author of the Longing for Home series, LONG JOURNEY HOME is a new romance novel set in the beloved world of Hope Springs.
Widowed by war, Maura O’Connor has raised her son alone under the weight of poverty in the unforgiving slums of New York City. That harsh and difficult life has taken a toll on them both. Desperate to save her son from the misery around them, she moves them both to the tiny western town of Hope Springs, where her late husband’s family lives, hoping that the decade of silence between them does not mean she and Aidan will be rejected outright. Her son needs family, and she would endure anything to see him happy.
Ryan Callaghan has worked the land belonging to the late Granny Claire for years, dreaming of one day claiming it as his own. Living in his brother’s home affords him no freedom, no stability, no joy. The arrangement is even harder on his mother, whose health is quickly deteriorating. A risky investment in the land has finally begun to pay off, and he is at last in a position to secure a better future for them both. When use of the home is, without warning, offered to a newly arrived widow and her son, that future is entirely uncertain.
Both Maura and Ryan desperately need the Claire farm, for their own futures as well as those of the loved ones who depend on them. Neither can remain in Hope Springs without the house and land, but only one can claim it in the end.

REVIEW
Sarah Eden's Hope Springs series is one of those series that pulls you in and never lets you go. You can't help wanting to visit again and again. In this addition to the series, Maura O'Connor discovers that her failing health threatens to leave her son an orphan. Her desperation leads her out west in search of her dead husband's family. But she's uncertain of her welcome, not having heard from them in years. She's stunned to be offered a home to stay in while she figures things out. But she isn't expecting to be contending for use of the home with Ryan Callaghan who has worked the land around the house hoping to eventually own the place himself. But as the two get to know each other, feelings start interfering with their efforts to build their own futures. Eden has once again created a tender story of struggle and despair mixed with hope and love and family. A wonderful addition to the series.
