Pages:  384

Synopsis:

Under summer skies, New York Times bestselling author Sherryl Woods evokes family, friendship and heartfelt emotion.

With her two younger sisters heading for the altar, will Samantha Castle exchange old dreams for new ones? Lately she'd rather be on the North Carolina coast with family than in New York with agents and actors. Though she vows not to let her teenage crush on Ethan Cole influence her decision, it's hard to ignore her feelings for the local war hero.

Ethan lost more than his leg in Afghanistan. He lost his belief in love. Even being surrounded by couples intent on capturing happily-ever-after won't open this jaded doctor's heart. It's going to take a sexy, determined woman—one who won't take no for an answer.

We pick up the story almost immediately after the end of Gabi and Wade’s story in Wind Chime Point.  Emily is in full wedding planning mode for her dream wedding to Boone.  With the help of Cora Jane the sisters are tying up loose ends and getting things ready for the big day – which is only a few weeks away!

Samantha has come home from New York City to be there for Emily and see her family.  Things haven’t been going as well as Samantha had hoped in NYC.  Her acting career seems to have hit a snag and isn’t sure what she wants to do.  Emily suggested a move to LA and start over but she just can’t see herself there.

Samantha has had a thing for Ethan since high school but he never noticed her.  Until now that is!  Cora Jane, Emily and Gabi have been scheming ways to get the two together.  They use all sorts of tricks and not so subtle pushes to get Ethan and Sam into each others arms.

I really enjoyed the 3rd book in this series.  The Castle sisters are a lot of fun and have had to jump through quite a few hoops to get their happily ever after's.  This book was filled with a few surprises – which I won’t spoil!  I’d love to find out more about Cora Jane and Jerry!

Would I recommend this book?  In a heart beat!  If you loved the others in the series then this is a must read for you.  If you are a lover of fun, cute contemporary romance then you should give this series a try!  Would I read more by this author?  Most definitely!

Blog Tour: Romancing the Countess by Ashley March

About the book: Sebastian Madinger, the Earl of Wriothesly, thought he'd married the perfect woman-until a fatal accident revealed her betrayal with his best friend. After their deaths, Sebastian is determined to avoid a scandal for the sake of his son. But his best friend's widow is just as determined to cast her mourning veil aside by hosting a party that will surely destroy both their reputations and expose all of his carefully kept secrets... Leah George has carried the painful knowledge of her husband's affair for almost a year. All she wants now is to enjoy her independence and make a new life for herself-even if that means being ostracized by the Society whose rules she was raised to obey. Now that the rumors are flying, there's only one thing left for Sebastian to do: silence the scandal by enticing the improper widow into becoming a proper wife. But when it comes to matters of the heart, neither Sebastian nor Leah is prepared for the pa...
