Genre:  Contemporary Romance
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!

A Day in the Life of.. Anne Barton

  Welcome to Stitch Read Cook's weekly feature!! A Day in the Life of..... This is where us bloggers & fans get a glimpse inside the days of our favorite authors!   -------------------- Anne Barton started swiping romances from her mom’s bookshelf as a teenager and decided historicals (with their balls, dukes, and gowns) were the best. So, when she had the chance to spend a semester in London she packed her bags—and promptly fell in love with the city, its history, and its pubs. She dreamed of writing romance, but somehow ended up a software analyst instead. Fortunately, a few years and a few careers later, Anne found her way back to writing the stories she loves and won the Romance Writers of America’s Golden Heart® for Regency Historical Romance. She lives in Maryland with her husband and three children, who try valiantly not to roll their eyes whenever she quotes Jane Austen. Her weaknesses include reality TV, cute-but-impractical shoes, and coffee. Lots and l...
