Summer's Landing
Summer's Landing is a new series about a more mature Summer Jones who is now 28 and working as a surgeon in Los Angeles. She was engaged to her long-time love, but now life is about to change with her fiance hovering between life and death. As a surgeon, she deals with life and death decisions everyday, but when tragedy hits too close to home, Summer faces the biggest decision in her life, one she will fall upon at a place called Summer's Landing.
I Can. Not. Believe. It.
Another tragedy. Another death. Now the man I am set to marry...the man I want to marry is hovering between life and death. We've just found his missing brother who had been under a different identity, a different life all this time. He's back in our lives...my fiance's smart, genius, and now hotter than ever older brother, who happens to be my first love since childhood...just to now have my fiance close to death.
How ironic? It's like the stars do not want us together. It's like we will never be together...my fiance and I. I don't know what to do...I don't know if I can do anything.
But it's as if somehow fate has another mind of its own. I won't know until all this plays out. My entire life has been a roller coaster, and now it seems it will come to a stop. I just need to know how to land.
He's there to help me...And I'm there too. Somehow the answers are there...at Summer's Landing.

I have become the biggest fan of Kailin Gow for giving such a bold and unpredictable ending. She could have t it as most of her readers wanted, but that would be too predictable. Some readers will be angry and hurt but it only shows how much people have fallen in love with some people in the book. I am happy with the ending. I didn't expect it.

What I love about Kailin Gow's contemporary romances is how entertaining they are. Yes, she can follow a formula for romance other romances follow, but she pushes romance reality to the brink. She's not afraid to take chances with her characters and plot, which is why her books are never like other books. Only people who read the short book blurb in the back will think her book sound anything like other romance books. Hers will stretch into other realms.
Summer's Landing is such a book. When you think it will go in one direction, she surprises you with a sharp turn leaving you stunned. You want her to go one way but she builds it up so you can't help but think this is for the best. In the end, it is Summer's happiness we want, and that makes sense.

It takes guts to do what Summer did. For anyone who has ever had to walk away from someone you love, it takes strength.

Okay here I thought that the series was ending so who Summer picked would finally make everyone happy. Well Summer's Landing begins where the last book ended, when Drew woke up from a coma and didn't remember Summer I thought Summer would fight for him. You know she's been with him for 10 years. But nope. Now she's back to going from guy to guy. Nate is her man for now. It's crazy to me that she's 28 years old and yet she keeps going back and forth between the guys. Uh!
