A January Bride (A Year of Weddings) by Deborah Raney

This story is a part of a series of novellas that are being released each month electronically.  The series is called A Year of Weddings.  This is the second novella to be released.

This story is a novella centered around Madeline Houser and Arthur Tyler.  Madeline is a writer who has moved in to her sister's house while it is being renovated in order to be sold.  Her sister and her husband are moving because he got a new job.  Madeline's mom is in a nursing home and so she also will be able to visit her.  With all the renovations happening in the house, Madeline can't concentrate on the novel that she is currently writing.  Her neighbor, Ginny, suggests that she go to an inn of a friend of hers to write.  Arthur Tyler lost his wife to cancer a few years ago.  Since her death, he has had trouble keeping up with taking care of her inn as he is also an english professor.  He and Ginny form a friendship based on notes that they leave for each other since they have never met before.  When they do finally meet, their misconceptions about each other are brought to life.

I enjoyed this novella.  It was a short, easy read.  I enjoyed seeing how the characters misconceptions of each other were resolved and how it all came together in the end.
