Sometimes love hurts—and sometimes it can heal in the most unexpected way.

But there’s a difference, her two sisters insist, between one who moves on . . . and one who keeps moving. Cam’s full-throttle life skids to a stop when her father buys a remote island off the coast of Maine. Paul Grayson has a dream to breathe new life into the island—a dream that includes reuniting his estranged daughters. Certain Dad has lost his mind, the three sisters rush to the island. To Cam’s surprise, the slow pace of island life appeals to her, along with the locals—and one in particular. Seth Walker, the scruffy island schoolteacher harbors more than a few surprises. With On a Summer Tide, bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher begins a brand-new contemporary romance series that is sure to delight her fans and draw new ones.

My Review
I
enjoyed this delightful novel about family relationships. Fisher did
a good job of developing the personalities of the three sisters. They
are women of strong character with lots of hurts between them. I
sometimes wondered if it would ever be possible to resolve the
tension among the sisters. Being with their father as he tries to
restore a decrepit Maine camp turns out to be life changing for all
of them. Blaine, for example, finds joy in cooking again, something
she had not done since their mother had died.
Fisher
deals with several serious themes in the story. A big one is honesty
and telling the truth. Another major issue is forgiveness. It is
explored within the context of a sensitive and well presented
Christian message from the Bible.
The
location of the Maine camp, on a small island near Acadia National
Park, was fun. I really got a sense of the wonder of nature in the
area. I enjoyed the snippets of humor here and there and there is
even delicious recipe included.
This
novel is a good beginning to a new series. I enjoyed being involved
in the lives of the Grayson sisters and will be looking out for the
next story.
My rating: 4/5 stars.

2 cups sifted flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups drained blueberries

Spell To Make Him Come Back Crying.. WhatsApp +234 705 259 3229
My boyfriend and I have been getting into little arguments which then later escalated. A lot of which are my fault but I never thought I would lose him because we are in love. He told me yesterday that he loves me but his done. That the fights keep hurting him too much. I can’t believe I hurt him like that and would love nothing more than another chance to prove to him and myself that I will cut out my insecurities that I've brought into this relationship. I did all i could to end this fight between us, none seem to be working so i had to seek the help of a spell caster who i met online and promised to help me bring him back into my life in 2 days time. i wasn't really sure about this, but i was really desperate that i had to do all that that the spell caster asked me. it was on the said day at exactly 3pm on friday, i heard a knock on the door and to my greatest surprise, it was my boyfriend, the first thing he said was that he has forgiven me and he will never leave me again, ever. Am so full of joy for what this spell caster have done for me, that i want the world to benefit from this. if you need his help you can reach him for any thing on relationship or anything you can think of for he is very powerful and so real.
