"Very good continuation in the Bellamy family drama. I was shocked by one very big inconsistancy in the story line, but it was easy to get past and move on. I am extremely captivated by this family and can't wait to move on to the next book."

" I'm still loving this series. Greg Bellamy and Nina Romano open Willow Springs Inn together and then fall in love. It's just the sweetest series of books ever! I love happily ever after. "
— Michele, 2/19/2014" A nice fun light book to read. "
— Dave, 2/18/2014" Great books.. "
— ~~AMY~~, 2/7/2014" Interesting characters, ties into Summer at Willow Lake and that was also fun. I feel like I am getting to know this family and I suppose that is the goal of this author. "
— Rebecca, 2/6/2014" its not as good as the first two in the series but i expected that since the reviews said as much. but it is still engaging enough....i will look forward to getting to book 4 though, i am just finding that i am not really all that interested in Nina and Greg as main characters. I also, do not like the sillyness of Daisy's character in the last couple books so it is also not as interesting to have so much of this book focusing on her and all her teen angst. this one almost makes me not want to jump into the next book in the series I think I will take a break from the lakeshore chronicles for a bit and come back to them later "
— Gwen, 1/24/2014" It's a good story but like the profile of some of the characters, its emotions are constrained. "
— Vivi, 1/22/2014" A good romance novel "
— Christie, 1/13/2014" Liked a lot. Good Characters, contermporary issues. I like that characters from her other books are entertwined. "
— Carol, 1/8/2014" Love these novels...love the characters...can't wait to get lost in the next one...(-: "
— Rhonda, 1/1/2014" Nothing earth-shattering, just an enjoyable fast read with likeable characters, and a predictability. "
— Gloria, 12/25/2013" Good beginning~funny and got your interest in Nina. Towards the. middle it seemed to review the old characters too much and not much happening. "
— Linda, 12/25/2013" a good fast paced read. Didn't want to put it down. Had to keep reading right to the end. "
— Judie, 12/9/2013" Continues the story of the Bellamy family and friends in the Catskills; easy and relaxing to read. "
— Joan, 12/5/2013" Another sweet, mindless summer read with a happy ending... "
— Stacie, 12/1/2013" Nice vacation light reading. Characters are sympathetic. (Sarah Moon from Just Breathe puts in an appearance.) I am looking forward to reading the others in this series. "
— Academicsupport, 10/29/2013" The most boring lake book I have ever read. "
— Terise, 9/12/2013" Great summer fluff / beachside reading "
— Kelly, 5/13/2013" The first couple of Susan Wiggs books were fun to taste..like an ice cream sundae. Unfortunately the formula tastes the same after a couple of books..predictable vanilla.. Done with this author. "
— Diane, 2/24/2013" Same thread of remaining with town's cast of characters but focusing on another couple. Storytelling is unchanged and as with other light fare and easy reading. "
— Sue, 2/8/2013" Another fun book to read about beautiful upstate New York. "
— Barbara, 1/31/2013" I thought this was a pleasant story. I did feel like I was dropped in the middle of a series as there were mentions of--I think--previous story lines. Apparently, this is the third book for a series. "
— Tressa, 12/12/2012" Switching back and forth from the past to the present is informative, but somehome it keeps me from being completely immersed in the story. The series is pleasant and enjoyable, but not compelling. "
— Carol, 12/1/2012" Another continuing story in the Lakeshore Chronicle series. "
— Grace, 11/28/2012" I enjoyed this book - but I like Susan Wiggs. Realized it was part of a collection of books - one of which I read last year - needless to say I ran out and got the other books from the collection. "
— Sherri, 8/30/2012" Sweet without being cheese, quicky read. Part of a series - I will look for the rest! "
