Summer Magic

by Rochelle Alers

Caryn Edwards needs to heal the wounds left by her ugly divorce and recover from a bad case of career burnout as a home economics teacher, so she rents a summer house on North Carolina's Marble Island. What she doesn't bargain for is handsome developer Logan Prescott, who will unexpectedly be sharing the house with her. But Logan has his own demons to deal with, and no intention of letting Caryn distract him--even if she is the most tempting woman he's ever met.

[Kimberly · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a great read. I couldn't put it down. This story tells of two damaged souls trying to find there way and needing time alone. Just to find themselves thrown together. This story really pulls at your heart strings. I smiled and cried.

Caryn was young and beautiful with issues from her first marriage. Logan was handsome with issues of his own. Their joint friends ended up being a godsend to them both. If your a lover of romance this is a must read.
