Weddings in Orchard Valley / Debbie Macomber. Toronto, Ontario : Mira, 2022. 332 pages ; 18 cm. "2 great stories, Valerie and Stephanie"--Cover. Each story first published separately in 1992. "Valerie: The last thing Valerie expects at a time like this is to fall in love--and with a man like Colby Winston. As a city businesswoman, she wants a different life than the small-town surgeon does, and she feels like his complete opposite. So Valerie can't understand why she's so attracted to him--or why her father keeps insisting that she and Colby make a perfect couple. Does her father know something she doesn't?"--Page 4 of cover. "Stephanie: Fortunately, by the time Steffie arrives in Orchard Valley, her father has already begun to recover. But Steffie has other worries, too. She fled her small hometown years earlier because of a humiliating rejection by the man she loved, local journalist Charles Tomaselli. She knows she can't avoid seeing him again, and it's not long before Steffie and Charles begin reliving past battles--and renewing old feelings. He was the reason she left; this time, will he give her a reason to stay?"--Page 4 of cover. 20230828. Man-woman relationships Fiction. Fathers and daughters Fiction. Sisters Fiction.
