About this ebook

Some people have all the luck alright, but so far, Seren's has all been bad.  


Seren Colburn's had nothing but bad luck her entire life, so she's not surprised when Dave, a possible buyer for her family mansion, mistakes her for a vagrant squatting in the unfurnished home. If she wasn't about to lose her movie-star grandmother's house to the bank, she wouldn't even be selling it. 


But after he realizes Seren's the owner, Dave has an idea. 


He suggests they work together to turn the mansion into an inn, capitalizing on her grandmother's graceful and timeless image. Seren really doesn't want to, but she's out of options. Dave quickly realizes he wants her as more than just a business partner, but can he convince Seren that her luck's about to change. . .if only she'll take a chance on him?


Publisher's Weekly said that Seed Money's plot is, "heartwarming and humorous, though protagonist Seren's personal life is filled with tragedy." They also said that, "the prose is engaging and easy to read. [Seed Money] is [a] familiar, charming, and comfortable read."

I had a hard time putting this book down, and I ended up breezing right through it in just over a day! Overall, I liked the humor in the book. There are some seriously devastating events that have happened in Seren's past and I was tearing up a couple of times, but the humor added a nice balance to the story so those parts didn't weigh it down too much. Seren and Dave both have big hearts, and it was good to read a book that included fostering.

Charming, witty, poignant story of loss and love. Watching Seren and Dave grow, not just healing but becoming stronger because of their past pain, is beautiful. And their second chance at purpose in life leads to a second chance for someone else, an opportunity that wouldn’t have been possible without the pain and work that led to that moment. This book does an excellent job of balancing lighthearted interplay and heavy subjects. It doesn’t downplay grief, but shows how beauty shines through.

I adored both of these main characters and watching their progression as people and partners. Some of my favorite parts: the pain and healing that the lead female goes through (it's so real, and evokes all the feelings!), what the caseworker said at the final home visit (as a foster mom, this also made me cry), and the beautiful relationship between father and son. It's such a lovely story that sets up a great series to follow!
