For most of the residents, The Coach House Trailer Park is the last lonely stop on the road of life. But on a crisp January breeze, a new girl sweeps into the neighborhood, charming them all with her wild nature, her elderberry gifts, and her outrageous laughter. What brings the mysterious Willow Goodhope of Elderberry Croft to this dead end place?

January Breeze

There's a new girl in town, and she's breathing life into The Coach House Trailer Park, starting with the tiny cottage she christens, Elderberry Croft. Kathy Kekoa isn't so sure about this wild child living across the way, with her generous nature, and exuberance for life. What's a vibrant, young thing like Willow Goodhope doing in a place like The Coach House? From what-or whom-is she hiding?

February Embers

Richard and Patti Davis have slipped into the shadowlands of hopelessness, where their days stretch out endlessly ahead of them. Lately, though, Richard has been sitting up and taking notice of the new girl down the way; Willow Goodhope, with her red curls and her wild laugh. Will Patti lose the only man she's ever loved to the green-eyed earth girl? Or will Willow steal both their hearts?

March Whispers

Joe Sanderson has been around long enough to know that living simply is simply better living. He gardens, he cooks, he entertains Vivian. Everything is going just fine…then along comes Willow Goodhope, with her whispering shadows and her elderberry pie, reminding him of what it means to be a man. Will he rise to the occasion, or dig in his heels?

Lovely story!

Willow is the sweetest character! And what a difference she makes in the lives of each trailer park residents, even the ones who are jealous of her or think she’s a little off.

Excellent

ELDERBERRY CROFT, a delightful story of how one can bring life, laughter, hope, a way for them to move forward to life. This began when Willow moved into the Coach House Trailer Park. Plants, animals, and soon people loved her, her laugh,and showing up, on their doorstep. With a basket of what was needed for them, her Elderberry gifts. Given audio for my voluntary review and honest opinion.

Awesome

Loved the audiobook, read by Becky Doughty who is also the author. All 3 novellas show how the kindness of one person can infect so many others. Love of one another is contagious!
