Four seasons, book 1: It Happens Every Spring
Gary Chapman et Catherine Palmer2006

So when a simple homeless man appears on Steve and Brenda Hansen's doorstep, the entire shop is set abuzz, especially when Brenda lets him sleep on their porch. That's not all the neighbors are talking about. Spring is blooming outdoors, but an icy chill has settled over the Hansens' marriage. Steve is keeping late hours with clients, and the usually upbeat Brenda is feeling the absence of her husband and her college-age kids. Add to that the unsavory business moving in next to the beauty shop and the entire community gets turned upside down. Now Brenda's friend must unite to pull her out of her rut and keep the unwanted store out of town. But can Steve and Brenda learn to thaw their chilly marriage and enjoy the hope spring offers ?
