Occupied with a secret project and acting suspiciously, Jane keeps her sisters guessing. Louise, with the help of a special little girl, helps a worn-out teacher discover her true calling. Preparations for a harvest party make the season festive and remind the Howard sisters to rejoice in each moment together.
Isn't that a homey cover? If you've read my reviews before, you know covers are important to me. Diann's story is just as cozy inside as this cover portrays. With simplistic style, Diann takes us into a warm inn run by three biological sisters who look out for each other and minister to those around them. You'll feel included as they settle in for tea or as they arrange get-togethers for the other characters. The other element beyond this familial one is that of a romance between two old flames. Personally, I would have liked for this relationship to have moved faster or that we could (as readers) have spent more time in those characters' heads as their reuniting and rekindling occurred. But this novel centered on the sisters, and their cozy acceptance is enough escape for some readers. The book didn't proclaim itself as a romance; it is what it claims to be--a lovely, homey, entertaining read. Some books set out to be edgy. Not this one. And though this reviewer appreciates some edgy elements, I found this book charming and entertaining. Diann has penned a simple and sweet story, perfect for curling up by the fire on a chilly autumn evening.
Best of the Tales from Grace Chapel Inn series

I've read a number of this series, and all are well written, but I have to say I loved We Have This Moment the best. The chracters are so well done, and I was drawn into the story so deeply, I was sad when it was done. I didn't want it to end.
