If you’re looking for the ultimate summer rom-com, Till Summer Do Us Part by Meghan Quinn is an absolute must-read.

“Maybe he was the love of my life. No, I am certain that he was. But happy endings are not the rule. Sometimes you give it your all, and things still don’t turn out well.

One Golden Summer by Carley Fortune

July 8, 2025July 7, 2025 michele

Carley Fortune has done it again—but this time, she’s truly outdone herself. One Golden Summer is a luminous, emotional escape to Barry’s Bay, blending sun-drenched nostalgia with the kind of romance that lingers long after you’ve turned the final page. This is, without a doubt, my favorite of hers so far. At the heart of… Continue reading One Golden Summer by Carley Fortune

Maine Characters by Hannah Orenstein

June 11, 2025May 28, 2025 michele

Drawn in by its charming cover, I picked up Maine Characters expecting a light summer read — and while the lake setting was exactly what I needed, the story turned out to be much deeper and more emotional than I anticipated. Hannah Orenstein has crafted a heartfelt, complex novel about family, grief, and the bond… Continue reading Maine Characters by Hannah Orenstein
