She found any excuse to punish Dave, while favoring her other children, and her punishments grew more demoralizing the older he got.

‘This poor child will most likely have a serious heart defect. A fatal one. I’m trying to spare us all terrible grief’”(18). This quote is ironic, as David makes a fast decision to spare his wife, Norah, grief by giving her more grief with the lie he told her.

This is a foreseeable effect of their chosen lines of work. The reporter and politician re-ignite their romance nearly every time they meet. even once David has three children and his law office he is still not satisfied, leading him to have an affair with Anne on his boat.

Ever since the feisty assistant district attorney, Rebecca Jennings, entered the Cedar Cove landscape near the end of the show’s second season, I was captivated by the actress who breathed life into her. While I often found myself rolling my eyes disdainfully at the audacious Miss Jennings and once in while yelling out in frustration at her antics, the way in which the actress Cindy Busby depicted her added coveted drama and offbeat humor to the story.
