From the bestselling author of The Charm
Bracelet and The Recipe Box comes the perfect
summer escape about the restorative power of family
tradition, small-town community and the feel of sand between
your toes Adie Lou Kruger’s ex never understood her affection for what
her parents called their Cozy Cottage, the charming,
ramshackle summer home—complete with its own set of rules
for relaxing—that she’s inherited on Lake Michigan. But
despite the fact she’s facing a broken marriage and empty
nest, and middle age is looming in the distance, memories of
happy childhoods on the beach give her reason for hope.
She’s determined not to let her husband’s affair with a grad
student reduce her to a cliché, or to waste one more minute
in a career she doesn’t love, so it becomes clear what Adie
Lou must do: rebuild her life and restore her cottage
shingle by shingle, on her terms. But converting the beloved, weather-beaten structure into a
bed-and-breakfast isn’t quite the efficient home-reno
experience she’s seen on TV. Pushback from Saugatuck’s
contentious preservation society, costly surprises and
demanding guests were not part of the plan. But as
the cottage comes back to life, Adie Lou does, too, finding
support in unexpected places and a new love story on the
horizon. One cottage rule at a time, Adie Lou reclaims her
own strength, history and joy by rediscovering the magic in
every sunset and sandcastle.

Re: The Summer Cottage
sounds like a wonderful book--loved the excerpt!

I hope to read this book when the weather warms, preferably on
the beach under a palapa although I suspect my reading
location will probably be a lounge chair on my front porch.

This is going to be a good read! Thanks.

What a nice excerpt. My family had an old camp on a small lake in
the N. Y. Adirondack Mountains. It wasn't much, but we couldn't
wait until we got up there. There is just something magical about a
place like it and Creaky Cottage. We didn't have the "rules" but the
effect and idea was the same. I went there year round, having
fought the snow storms which were not as bad as lake effect snow,
but still not not fun. There was ice skating and ice fishing on the
lake, and hikes in the snow through the woods. This is a book I will
enjoy and am looking forward to reading.

Just what I read has me wanting to take a trip.
(Candy Voisine 10:09pm March 27, 2019)
I know I would enjoy reading this book.

This sounds so good when i was in my abusive foster home
all the kids were going on great vacations I was stuck at
home working any dirty chores that they could find for
mr. Now that I am a lot older i make my own rules and am
so happy I would love to read this print book and review
as my fingers are crippled from a disease called RSD so
print is perfect and 2 diff reviews on 2 diff sites.

Loved the Bob Newhart comment in the book. The last of the
snow melted yesterday on my front deck so I look forward to
reading outside in another month.
(Leona Olson 11:16am March 28, 2019)
I'm looking forward to reading this book and finding all the details about how Adie rebuilt her life. The word COZY keeps coming into my mind while reading the description.
(Anna Speed 12:00pm March 28, 2019)
