The Lakeshore Chronicles is a series in good company with Robyn Carr's virgin river and Susan Mallory fools gold. I would love to be invited to a long weekend by the lake with this cast of characters. I listened to the audiobooks each morning doing my makeup and so good I kept listening on way to work

I really did enjoy this so don't let my rating discourage you from that fact. However the flashbacks hindered my enjoyment because I felt like I didn't really grow to know Olivia or Connor, I just skimmed the surface into delving into who these characters really are as people. I think this plus the fact that this truly felt like the first book in a series where Wiggs is trying to stuff a lot of background for the series as a whole, as well as Olivia & Connor's story, kept me from giving this book a higher rating.

Cada vez que leo un libro de romance entiendo la razón por la cual es necesario hacerlo de vez en cuando. Descubrí hace poco que es una saga de muchos libros pero creo con este me bastó.

I loved this book! I've always loved reading books about summer camp, and this one bouncing back and forth between and adult and her childhood camp memories was perfect. Very enjoyable, especially as cold as it is here now!

I enjoyed this book and following the story of the two main characters, Olivia and Connor, but I felt that all the side stories were distracting. They are obviously character setups for the rest of the books in the series, but I still didn't like it.

The author left too many loose ends, and she really rushed the ending.

Not really into contemporary romances anymore, but since I really loved Wiggs' historical work, I thought I would give this series a try. I -almost- did not like the heroine, and I'm still troubled by the "weight loss made me beautiful" trope. BUT I really loved the chemistry, the hero, and the interwoven story lines. Clearly, the rest of the series is going to be interesting. Looking forward to catching up.
