That Summer Place

Very cute book. Easy reading. I love Debbie Macomber, but now I've found two other authors to read.

Great summer reading. All three stories captivating from beginning to end. Made me want to visit and vacation on Puget Sound!!!!

Great Book!

This book includes three stories all revolving around one location, San Juan Islands in Washington State. One author started the stories by setting the scene, then two other authors continued with Debbie Macomber's story in the middle. I have enjoyed much of Macomber's work, so I selected this novel to a quick summer read. I truely enjoyed the combinations of the three authors, and all three stories were enchanting.

3 special writers take you to a special place...

What's better than reading a book by your favorite author? Reading one by your favorite, your second-favorite, and your other second-favorite! I laughed and cried over these three delightful novellas, marveling at the breathtaking setting. If you've ever dreamed of falling in love in a perfect spot, during a perfect summer, this book is for you.

3 superstars=1 winner

On a remote island off of the state of Washington lies an old Victorian summer house. It is just what it seems except for the fact that visitors seem to fall in love with one another under its magical roof.Three of the romance genre's most talented superstars take readers on a vacation to this magical Rainshadow Lodge.San Francisco businesswoman Catherine is burned out and desperately needs a vacation. She decides to return to the place where she spent many happy moments as a child. When she arrives with her two children, the single mother meets Michael, the local handyman and Catherine's first love.That old familiar feeling returns in Jill Barnett's beautiful contemporary, "Old Things." Beth and her son travel to the island to meet some friends on her first vacation since her spouse passed away. To her chagrin and fate, Beth is forced to share her lodging with John, an uptight, dead-serious business man and his angry daughter. Only Debbie Macom! ber could find a way for two obvious opposites to fall in love in her particularly palpitating "Private Paradise."Mitch is a classic workaholic who disses people who spend their life being mellow. However, he has a lobotomy of the soul when he meets Rosie, a laid- back scientific consultant. They can teach each other about what they professionally do best, but can they learn how to love in spite of all that ISLAND TIME they have to share? Susan Wiggs knows how to entertain her readers in a most exciting way.All three stories are top rate and readers will want to spend more time at mystical house. Harriet Klausner
