Barbara McMahon liked Ruth's review of A Summer Song: "I really enjoyed this cozy story about two people who each had their guard up about pursuing a serious romance. How could a big city girl ever be happy in Sleepy Hollow, Kentucky? "

Barbara McMahon liked Barbara Tobey's review of A Summer Song: "A sweet romance. A time for personal growth and independence. The music and sculptures added depth to the story. Surprising conclusion. Thanks to BookSirens for providing a copy. My review is voluntary."

Barbara McMahon liked Isha Coleman's review of A Summer Song: "McMahon leads with heart. From captivating to heartbreaking, she brings haunting to life. A Summer Song turns the soul upside down. From new beginnings to hot romance, Kirk and Angelica are a breath of fresh air"
