A review by emilyhei
Stardust Summer by Lauren Clark
4.0
Grace Mason chose a life as a single parent, leaving New York and finding her own way for herself Estranged from her father, Grace rebuffs his effort to get Grace and her young son home. When a distraught call comes with the news her father has suffered a heart attack, any chance Grace has to make amends are sadly shortly lived.
Grappling with the death of her father, Grace ends up staying for the summer. With a tumultuous relationship with her fathers second wife, Grace finds herself taking a deep look within and wondering if it is time to forgive and start anew. Grace forms an attachment to next door neighbor Dr. Ryan Gordon, though both Ryan and Grace are gunshy and have their own reasons to be wary of a new relationship. Perhaps taking a risk and trusting one another is what both have been desperately looking for?
I thought this was filled with emotion. Grace is dealing with a mixture of feelings, grief, betrayal, hurt, guilt, you name it. I thought this was expertly translated in the story. A beautifully written story.
