Review # 1 was written on 2018-03-24 00:00:00 Patricia Engel To live in the state and the area this book writes about and not know or understand the history is embarrassing of me. As much as I love to read, I will be spending this summer learning more about the place I live and the people. Three different groups of people from three different backgrounds, decide to spend the summer on McKinnon Island, SC. Dr. Hope Sutton has family roots there. After breaking up with her fiance, she decides to leave New York and regroup. Rebecca Owens has lost herself in her marriage and her children and needs to discover who or what she needs to feel alive again. Theodore Howell is raising his three siblings after their parent's death and he's not successful in his endeavors. Sometimes it takes a change of scenery, meeting new people and exploring new locations to allow your life to become normal again. The story was very descriptive and informative. I learned about the Gullah language by reading this book. Rochelle wrote a love story with a beautiful African American historical background.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-07-02 00:00:00 Neil Charles This was a fantastic romantic read. I must admit there was a surprising twist in one of the relationships. Though this incident could have broken this character's spirit, she persevered and learned to trust in love again. I'd like to meet a man like Theo. The author's descriptive narrative has generated an interest in the cuisine and landscape of the Carolinas. I must go there now.
