Description

A message in a bottle. A small-town mystery. And a summer where life takes an unexpected turn. Robyn Wright isn’t merely knocking on the door to middle age—she’s hammering on it with both fists. And to make matters worse? Her boyfriend of more than a decade won’t seal the deal. Her former dream job is now barely paying the bills. Her eighty-year-old father is getting married again…to a woman young enough to be Robyn’s daughter. Summer is approaching. And so is the time for a change. When Robyn takes a part-time job as the companion to an elderly woman who lives in a beautiful harbor house on a small island off the coast, she’s expecting a few months of solitude and a chance to reset…until a walk on the beach uncovers a message in a bottle and a decades-long mystery that Robyn feels compelled to solve. And in unraveling the story of the lost lovers from so long ago, she might just uncover a few surprises about herself along the way. Sink your toes into the golden-sand beaches of Thistle Island, where strangers are friends, sunshine is plentiful, and the ocean is always just a few steps away. This feel-good small-town women’s fiction series is perfect for readers of all ages.

    This is one of those maddening books that doesn’t end, but sets you up for the next in the series. Want to know the rest? Buy another book. My guess is that book will do the same thing. No thank you, Ms Author. Write a good enough book & I’ll buy more because I like your writing. But, trying to FORCE me & that answer is no thank you!
  • Can’t wait to see what happens next!

    A possible second chance story?
  • Cliff-hanger

    Using a cliff-hanger is an unprofessional ploy to sell more books when the author believes her writing skill is not sufficient. This underhanded tactic depends on the reader’s curiosity rather than the author’s creativity to entice readers to buy the next book. Her writing is adequate and she should not degrade herself by using such schemes. But because she has made this choice I choose to delete her from my list.
  • Doesn’t have an ending

    I got sucked in. I love the premise, the island, the characters. I would have loved more. An ending to at least one plot line.
  • Sweet story but a cliffhanger

    I enjoyed the mid life reality and forks in the road and the bonus love story but still leaves as a cliffhanger

    Very simple story line. I enjoyed reading about the island and wishing I could find a place as quiet and laid back
