When baker extraordinaire Leilani Trusdale left the bustle of New York City for Georgia's sleepy Sugarberry Island, she didn't expect her past to follow. Yet suddenly, her former boss, Baxter Dunne, aka Chef Hot Cakes, the man who taught her everything pastry, wants to film his hit cooking show in her tiny cupcakery.

Story
Art teacher Angie Newcastle’s life is all monotone. She wasn’t always this dull. She’d been an up-and-coming artist with the world at her feet. But after contracting the Wrong Man Syndrome and spending years doubting herself, she no longer recognizes herself. When she loses her job, she can’t afford to keep ignoring the obvious: Her life needs a serious overhaul. And she knows exactly where to start: in Ireland, teaching art classes to her ex-pat cousin’s village community.

Ford Maddox was running from his past when he came back to Blueberry Cove, Maine, where he'd tasted both heartache and comfort. With feisty Delia O'Reilly there to cheer him on, he couldn't have picked a better place to start over--even if he's determined to do it alone in his island tree house, working to save endangered seabirds...and himself. But when he finds Delia fighting to hold on to her local diner, and all that's best about their little seaside town, Ford has to lend a hand.

Publisher's Summary
In the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains lies a small town with a big heart - and a chance to begin again....
When Hannah Montgomery buys a lavender farm in Blue Hollow Falls with three friends, she's creating a life she never imagined - one she hopes will honor the memory of the sweet young son she tragically lost years ago. Standing on the porch of the sprawling farmhouse, looking out on row upon row of those lush purple plumes, Hannah is ready to embrace this fresh, new start....
Then she meets Wilson McCall. The stonemason hired to fix their crumbling chimneys and leaky roof is quieter than most folks in the Falls. Hannah's not surprised to learn the widower struggles with his own grief. Who could blame her if she finds joy in making Will laugh again, or if she feels a poignant kinship when she sees him with his teenage son? But her deepening friendship with Will reminds Hannah that there's a part of her that still needs to heal - awakening a tender yearning to have a life that isn't just good enough, but lived fully - even if that means taking risks once more....

Beautiful series!
This series is one of my favorites. Often, a romance series starts out strong, but disappoints after the first book. This one just gets better. I hope she continues the series with some of the new, and VERY interesting, characters that were introduced in Lavender Blue.
As for the narration, Amanda Ronconi is amazing, as usual. She and Jim Dale are my favorite narrators. In fact, I only stumbled upon Donna Kauffman's books, because I was searching for books narrated by Amanda and I'm so glad I did.

This series keeps getting better!
I recently picked up the first Blue Hollow Series audiobook, narrated by Amanda Ronconi, because it was listed under the "More from the same narrator" section. I'm so glad I did! As soon as I finished Blue Hollow Falls, I grabbed Bluestone and Vine so I could find out if the Viking-esque sidekick Seth Brogan gets his own HEA, (Spoiler alert: He did!). So of course I wanted to grab Book 3, Lavender Blue, when I learned it was about the brooding single father/widower Wilson McCall! A whole new group of characters arrives on the scene in this third book, and I'm hoping that means we readers/listeners will get to spend more time in the Blue Hollow Falls!
Another lovely sweet romance with realistic characters dealing with some pretty heavy stuff in remarkably realistic and healthy ways, but with enough quirk and humor and realness to the community and supporting characters to make the book an easy and enjoyable listen. I do think this 3rd book in this series went to another level - it could have felt cliche and formulaic, but Ms. Kauffman added some extra elements that made it feel true to life.
Ms. Kauffman knows how to pen a love story that makes a listener's heart happy, and Ms. Ronconi knows how to narrate a love story - ANY story, in fact - to make a listener's ears happy. She does a great job of distinguishing characters - good male and female and various aged voices!
Sex - some open door
Language - now and then
Violence - none except for references to past experiences
Substance abuse - none except for references to past experiences
Social drinking - some
Looking forward to the next audiobook in the series!

Best in Class—Writing and Narration
I have listened to all of this series and all the Blueberry Cove series and truly loved them all. They are beautifully written and performed. Ms. Kauffman’s plots are interesting and compelling, with fully developed characters and great dialogue. She does the miraculous by presenting a story that rings true and keeps your interest without all the over the top angst of many romance/chick lit novels. I was truly impressed! The narration is also excellent, enhancing the story and making it come alive. Ms. Ronconi is one of those world class narrators who don’t get in the way of the story, but subtly portrays the characters in such a real way that it’s almost like watching a movie in your head. Thank you both. Hope to hear more from this superior pairing in the future!

Excellent Writing & Amanda Ronconi Story Telling!
This book like Donna Kaufman’s other books was absolutely excellent. Additionally Amanda Ronconi is a superb story teller transporting the reader into and through the well written story by Donna Kaufman. I wish this team , of writer and narrator would do more books as they deliver an enjoyable experience to listen to.

Book 3 disappoints
Books 1 and 2 of this Trilogy were both excellent stories that kept my interest throughout. In fact, I wrote 5 star reviews for both. In Book 3, Donna Kauffman repeats the depressing tragedies suffered by both the main characters to the point of leaving me sad and depressed. The book left a black cloud hovering over me.

Overall a good story
I’ve been listening to Donna Kauffman lately. I like her series. On this book though, I liked the story but it seemed to drag on too long in some parts, I had to skip ahead a few minutes.
Other than that it was a good listen.
