Un bébé dans un couffin: A l'ombre des Magnolias - Tome 5

The sense of place feels so authentic and welcoming. I'm curious what inspired the detailed depiction of this Carolina town and its people.

The story manages to be both tender and engaging without feeling overwhelmed by one aspect. I'd love to hear if others felt the same or wished for more focus on the romance.

The setting adds so much warmth and charm — I wonder if the author has personal ties to the region or if it was created from research.
