Best-selling author Debbie Macomber's fans might be too excited to get to the latest gossip in her recent Cedar Cove series installment, "8 Sandpiper Way," to peruse the dedication page.
So Macomber wrote a letter to her readers, in which she asks them to take note of that page, and the women she thanks for their courage and strength. First among them is Minda Butler of York. "I think that she probably inspired the entire story," Macomber said.
