With a lifetime of relocations behind her, Iris Hornbeam is in search of that one special place to call home. She travels up the Atlantic coast, "trying on" various cities and towns, and ultimately she reaches Eastport, Maine. In this easternmost city of the United States, she not only experiences the coastal beauty of the land, and the charm of the Downeasters who live there, but she also experiences a turn of events that will test her character, her strength, and her belief in a loving God. The Eastport Series follows the lives of the Downeasters who live in the real-life town of Eastport, Maine. Each book focuses on the themes of faith, community, family, friendship, and love. The stories are told through the eyes of the more mature residents of the town.
