Rivers Sullivan bears both visible and invisible scars—those on her shoulder from a bullet wound and those on her heart from the loss of her fiancé during the same brutal attack. Not even her background as an art therapist can help her regain her faith in humanity. Still, she scrapes together the courage to travel to St. Simons Island to see the beach cottage and art gallery she’s inherited from her fiancé. When she stumbles upon recovering addicts running her gallery, she’s forced to reckon with her own healing.
After the tragic drowning of his cousin, James Cooper Knight spends his days trying to make up for his past mistakes. He not only dedicates his life to addiction counseling, but guilt drives him to the water, searching for others who’ve been caught unaware of the quickly rising tides of St. Simons. When he rescues a peculiar blond woman and her sketch pad from a sandbar, then delivers this same woman to his deceased grandmother’s properties, he knows things are about to get even more complicated.
Tragic circumstances draw Cooper and Rivers closer, but they fight their growing feelings. Though Cooper’s been sober for years, Rivers can’t imagine trusting her heart to someone in recovery, and he knows a relationship with her will only rip his family further apart. Distrust and guilt are only the first roadblocks they must overcome if they take a chance on love.

"Ferguson has crafted another winner in Magnolia Storms, dripping with witty characters and the Southern charm of the Mississippi gulf coast. You'll almost smell the salty brine in the hurricane winds as you devour this must-read."
Misty M. Beller, bestselling author of The Lady and the Mountain Man.
In this heartfelt, powerful and endearing second chance story, Ferguson sweeps readers away with her bold writing, descriptive scenery and charismatic characters. While incorporating Hurricane Katrina into the story, Ferguson challenges her readers on their acceptance of faith, hope and trust in God.
Romantic Times Review
"Going home, facing a past you'd rather forget, and pain that you'd wish would just go away. Magnolia Storms touches the heart of disaster and brings a soft touch of love where there had only been angst."
Jennifer Rodewald, bestselling author of Reclaimed
"Magnolia Storms examines the impact of one's choices and the cost of holding a grudge while offering readers the hope of healing and redemption. Fans of inspirational romance will thoroughly enjoy this delightful cast of characters and Southern charm that has become the trademark of Ferguson's novels."
Heidi McCahan, author of Covering Home
I was quickly swept up in this lively tale of second chances and overcoming fears. The storm lurking off the Gulf coast is nothing compared to the ones brewing in the hearts of Magnolia and the ship's pilot she loved before Hurricane Katrina ripped through her dreams. I've enjoyed all of Janet Ferguson's books, but this might just be my new favorite!

A Coastal Hearts Novel
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you….
Maggie Marovich couldn’t save her father or her home from Hurricane Katrina, but she’s dedicated her life to meteorology so she can warn others when the monster storms approach. Except…she works three hours inland and rarely risks returning to her childhood hometown of Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Both her single-parent sister and the ship pilot Maggie once loved refused to leave the Coast, despite Maggie’s requests. Now a hurricane’s headed toward Mississippi, and Maggie’s sister is seriously injured, leaving Maggie little choice but to head south—into the storm.
The water and tides flow through Josh Bergeron’s veins, and he can’t imagine giving up piloting—even for the love of his life, the infuriating Magnolia Marovich. He tried to move on without her, marrying and having a child. But after his wife abandons him and his little boy, his career choice is threatened by the weight of his parental responsibilities. Moving next door to Maggie’s sister and sharing their child care seems like the perfect set-up. Until Maggie blows back into town.
Being forced to lean on Josh for help washes up the wreckage in Maggie’s faith. Where was God during the destruction of Katrina? Why do some prayers seem to go unanswered? Between the hurricane looming in the Gulf and another gale raging in her heart, can Maggie overcome her past and find the trust to truly live?
