An emotional read that I could not put down. Author Liza has been asked to write the memoirs of Ray. Not sure why she was asked but she was willing to give it a try. Ray lives on a remote island, Haven Point off the coast of South Carolina. Here she meets Kendall and Amos (Kendall's dog). Kendall also lives on the island, along with a few other diverse residents. Knowing Liza is only there for a short time, is he willing to open his heart out to her. They are a close knit community. Ray is a mystery to all, but soon the secrets will come out.

This is a slow paced story that I did not want to see end. I laughed many times and shed many tears. This is more of a women's fiction with elements of romance and mystery. This is a well written book that I highly recommend.… (mehr)

The book starts out as a typical rom-com. Becca is an events planner whose four friends have set her up on four blind dates. All the dates go horrendously wrong, and each time she is rescued by the same cute guy. Nice setup for romance, right?
However, the story veers off into more womens' fiction due to Becca's inability to deal with the loss of her fiance and her job pressures due to her overbearing boss having cancer. Jacob is a nice guy, but the romantic part seemed really lacking in the story. Maybe it would have helped if we got Jacob's POV but it seemed like he was an overworked guy and father looking for anyone who'd have him. So, it's an okay story but I was looking for a romance to read this time.… (mehr)
