She married her real-life hero over 20 years ago and was blessed with two children, a son and daughter, who now have gifted her with an empty nest!

She also has been blessed with a variety of alley cats over the years: Professor, Sheba, Waffles and Shadow. Unfortunately, cats don't live as long as people do, and each in turn has left her side. The last one, Shadow, her lovely Siamese orphan, passed away in 2002.

But recently, Lyn's daughter called to say that she has continued the family tradition and has just taken in her first stray kitten-Irving. Lyn is very happy to welcome her first grand-kitty into the Cote family and is planning to visit him soon!

Lyn loves having guests, but can't quite accomplish the perfect \"House Beautiful\" look. She does have her standards though. If there is a basket of laundry in the living room, it is always clean. She never allows dirty laundry in her living room! So the door is always open to company, just push the books off the couch and have a seat!

Finally, Lyn has been blessed with the career she's wanted since she was a child. She's a writer. So you see Lyn has all she ever wanted: true love, family, understanding friends, a happy home and a rewarding career.

Bride by mail! 

Mail–order bride Judith Jones has barely arrived in Pepin, Wisconsin, before she's whisked away to prepare for her wedding to Asa Brant. Though something about Asa seems so familiar, how do two strangers become husband and wife? Especially when Judith senses Asa's hidden sorrow. His kindness in helping two young orphans could win her heart…if only he'd open up to her.

Determined to start over after four years of brutal war, Asa moved away and sent for a mail–order bride. He had no idea the woman answering his ad would be the sister of his former soldier in arms. The less he reveals, the fewer painful memories there are to confront. But Judith's compassion – and two loving children – might just show them the path to true happiness…

His ready–made family!

Mason Chandler is home to meet his mail–order bride – six months too late! Little wonder Emma Jones wants to honour his letter releasing her from their agreement, especially when Mason has returned from his father's deathbed with two adopted girls in tow.

As the new schoolteacher in Pepin, Wisconsin, Emma can support herself without a husband. Yet she's touched by Mason's kindness to his half sister and her orphaned companion. Taking the little girls under her wing comes naturally to Emma – and they dearly want her for their mama. Can Mason break free of his past to fight for their surprise family?

Christmas is for families, and Felicity Gabriel intends to build a family right away! When she inherits a mansion, she decides to turn it into a home for orphans. Broken by war, judge Tyrone Hawkins is devastated when his little girl runs from him to Felicity.

Schoolteacher Ellen Thurston never expected to find love in Pepin, Wisconsin. But the moment she discovers a baby boy outside her door, it's love at first sight. While the townsfolk don't approve of Ellen as a single mother, what worries her most are her feelings for the handsome farmer who defends her decision to keep the child.

An unexpected partnership 

Quaker Rachel Woolsey dreams of having her own bakery and her own homestead. But the odds are stacked against her–until the handsome ex–soldier she nurses back to health offers to help her. Like Rachel, Brennan Merriday is an outsider. But he'll be the temporary ally she needs, and her foolish attraction will fade once he's gone. 

At first, the only thing Brennan wants to know about Pepin, Wisconsin, is how fast he can leave it. Perhaps in Canada he'll find peace after a bloody war. Yet repaying his debt to the pretty baker offers unexpected solace. She saved him once. Now he longs to rescue dreams of family–for both of them.

New hope for a soldier

Heartland Courtship - Lyn Cote

Quaker Rachel Woolsey’s plans to have her own bakery and homestead seem out of reach — until the handsome ex-soldier she nurses back to health offers to help her. At first, Brennan Merriday intends to stay in Pepin, Wisconsin, only long enough to repay his debt to the pretty baker. But soon he longs to rescue dreams of family — for both of them

Homefront Hero - Allie Pleiter

Dashing and valiantly wounded, Captain John Gallows could have stepped straight out of an army recruitment poster. Leanne Sample can’t help being impressed — although the lovely Red Cross nurse tries to hide it. She knows as soon as he’s well enough, he’ll rush back to war — and far away from South Carolina. But when an epidemic strikes close to home, John comes to realise what it truly means to be a hero — Leanne’s hero.
