On the day her daughter leaves for college, Anne Colwater's husband of twenty years announces he wants a divorce. Her roles of wife and mother suddenly gone, Annie retreats to her childhood home of Mystic, Washington, to heal. There she finds her old friend Nick, suddenly widowed and unable to cope with his emotionally scarred young daughter, Izzie.
Annie agrees to look after Izzie, and soon finds herself caring for both father and daughter with a joy and passion she never expected - and she finds her love returned with a fervor she had never even hoped for. But love is never simple, and it is not until Annie learns a hard lesson from her own grown daughter that she finds the strength to claim the happiness she has earned.
You know a book is a winner when you devour it in one evening and hope there's a sequel. Such was the case with Kristin Hannah's new novel, On Mystic Lake, which is both a touching love story and a fascinating study of a woman's compassion for a small child...this page-turner has enough twists and turns to keep the reader up until the wee hours of the morning.

On Mystic Lake
CHICK-LIT
BLURB
Annie Colwater's husband has just confessed that he's in love with a younger woman. Devastated, Annie retreats to the small town where she grew up. There, she is reunited with her first love, Nick Delacroix, a recent widower who is unable to cope with his silent, emotionally scarred young daughter. Together, the three of them begin to heal. But just when Annie believes she's been given a second chance at happiness, her world is turned upside down again, and she is forced to make a choice that no woman in love should ever have to make.
COMMENTS:
Growing up meant to cut her waist-length hair at the age of thirty-nine - a symbolic act. No more playing the young girl in a woman's body. Life threw her a curve ball and tested her ability to change and grow.
For the right audience: yes. For me: No.
Too formulaic, predictable. Nothing new. Clichéd. You read one, you read them all. Giving a friend a new lease on life, being inspirational, was noble. Third star is for that.
The ending was GREAT, if the double-impact, sort of, is ignored ! But perhaps that's just the thing. It leaves something to talk about.
