    About this audiobook

    From #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs

    Revisit the tranquil shores of Willow Lake in this irresistible tale of a woman’s emotional journey from the heartache of the past to hope for the future.

    With her daughter off to college, Nina Romano is ready to embark on a new adventure. Motherhood, after all, has left little time for dating, travel and chasing dreams. She decides to become the general manager of the charming Inn at Willow Lake, a place where she as fond childhood memories. But just as she begins to dream of owning the inn one day, she learns that it’s been purchased by Greg Bellamy, a man with whom she has a complicated history.

    Greg lost his first marriage to a demanding career. Now he’s determined to make a new start, and to put family first, before it’s too late. Between juggling work, raising his young son and helping his nearly grown daughter face life’s ultimate challenge, he has no time to fall in love. Still, with Nina Romano, this might be a chance for a new beginning.

    • 4/5
      Charming story that continues with characters that I Have enjoyed getting to know.
    • 5/5
      Nina Romano has raised her daughter and now has time for herself. She can pursue her dream of reopening the Inn at Willow Lake.Complications arise when the Inn is sold to another individual but she is asked to work as the manager.
    • 4/5
      I like the themes in this series of missed connections, overcoming youthful decisions, and second chances. My biggest issue with this OTP is the lack of direct communication at times. Nina does not tell Greg about her dreams. I'm not a big fan of conflict through omission, and Nina going back and forth from strong to pathetic in her own mind was off-putting at times. I do like how the eventual relationship gets going, and the ending definitely leaves you wanting more -- for other characters. Looking forward to the next book now.
    • 4/5
      Nina Romano a single mother whose daughter Sonnet is out of the country for the summer. So that means that Nina could finally go after her dreams of owning and running the inn at willow lake. Greg has bought the inn and moved in with his son Max and pregnant daughter Daisy. Another good book in the series.
    • 4/5
      Nina Romano, finally free to pursue her own adventures after raising her daughter, falls for innkeeper Greg Bellamy, a single father with two children of his own. Wiggs' female characters are usually strong women and Nina Romano is as strong as they come. Another great installment in the Lakeshore Chronicles series.
