A Sweethaven Summer tells the story of a young woman trying to find her roots after her mother dies. I found myself pulled in to the story that melds past and present and weaves a story that's hard to put down. Even though I usually prefer books with historical or suspense settings, I will definitely read more books by Courtney Walsh. Her writing has a lyrical feel that transported me into the characters and their journeys.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Suzanne's daughter, Campbell, journeys there in search of answers to her questions about her mother's history.Suzanne's three friends-Lila, Jane, and Meghan-were torn apart by long-buried secrets and heartbreak. Though they haven't spoken in years, each has pieces of a scrapbook they made together in Sweethaven. Suzanne's letters have lured them all back to the idyllic lakeside town, where they meet Campbell and begin to remember what was so special about their long Sweethaven summers. As the scrapbook reveals secrets one by one, old wounds are mended, lives are changed, and friendships are restored-just as Suzanne intended.
