It Happens Every Spring (The Four Seasons of a Marriage Series #1) - Softcover
Meet the characters that live, work, dream, and love in the community of Deepwater Cove. Best-selling authors Gary Chapman and Catherine Palmer team up to show how four married couples, all in different stages in life, experience the joys and hardships of marriage as examined in Gary Chapman's The Four Seasons of Marriage. In book one, Steve and Brenda face a common problem among middle-age couples: empty nest syndrome. Steve works too much, and with their two children out of the house, Brenda feels lonely and unfulfilled. In order to save their marriage, the two must learn to reconnect. Readers are also introduced to many charming characters, like Cody, the mentally challenged homeless man that shows up on Steve and Brenda's porch; Pete, who owns the Rods ā€˜N' Ends tackle shop; and Patsy Pringle, who owns the Just As I Am beauty parlor, where much of the action takes place.
The series is based on the marriage principles found in Gary Chapman's non-fiction book The Four Seasons of Marriage. Similar in tone and light-hearted, quirky humor as Jan Karon's Mitford series, Fannie Flagg's books or Steel Magnolias. Each book has a study guide that talks about the four seasons of marriage and the healing strategies depicted in that volume's story.

This is a story that grips one's heart. And it's made much richer by the strong performance of Jill Shellabarger. The story revolves around Steve and Brenda Hansen, whose marriage of many years is falling apart. When a homeless man enters their lives, surprising things begin to happen. A wide cast of characters, including neighbors and friends, makes this a lively book, and Shellabarger delivers all their emotions believably. Authors Chapman and Palmer weave in a strong message of faith and hope without being preachy. The engrossing story will sometimes bring the listener to laughter, and parts of it may bring some to tears. N.L. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
