Review of “On a Summer Tide” by Suzanne Woods Fisher

Publisher Description

“Sometimes love hurts–and sometimes it can heal in the most unexpected way.”

“Camden Grayson loves her challenging career, but the rest of her life could use some improvement. “Moving on” is Cam’s mantra. But there’s a difference, her two sisters insist, between one who moves on . . . and one who keeps moving. 

Cam’s full-throttle life skids to a stop when her father buys a remote island off the coast of Maine. Paul Grayson has a dream to breathe new life into the island–a dream that includes reuniting his estranged daughters. Certain Dad has lost his mind, the three sisters rush to the island. To Cam’s surprise, the slow pace of island life appeals to her, along with the locals–and one in particular. Seth Walker, the scruffy island schoolteacher harbors more than a few surprises. 

With On a Summer Tide, bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher begins a brand-new contemporary romance series that is sure to delight her fans and draw new ones.”

My Review:

This book has everything that I love: A family that sticks together through difficult times; characters that have their own strong personalities and hold their place well in the storyline; a gorgeous setting that adds interest and helps drive the story; and a plot that is absorbing and heartwarming.  I love Suzanne Woods Fisher’s Amish and historical novels, and reading this contemporary Christian fiction book written by her was a delight.   This is really not a “romance” novel, although one of the characters does have a love interest in the story.  It’s more about coming together as a family; finding peace after tragedy; and trusting God for purpose and direction.  I loved this first book in the series about Three Sisters Island, and look forward to the next book in this series.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
