Romance Time Travel

Following the miscarriage of a daughter, Amy Hanford is devastated and withdrawn. Her husband, Stephen, and her two sons are going on a camping trip, which Amy has refused to join. A therapist has suggested to Stephen that Amy spend a few days at her summerhouse in Maine. Only to pacify Stephen does Amy agree.

Upon arrival in Maine, Amy finds two other women, also guests of the therapist and each carrying their own troubles. Zoë, a young woman who's lost her memory following an accident, and Faith, recently widowed and also grieving for a long lost love, are trying to conquer their own demons. Amy, having realistic dreams at night involving Tristan, a beautiful and powerful man of the 18th century, awakes each morning with unexplained bruises. Each woman is hoping to rewrite the past through the mystical powers of Madame Zoya by being transported in time to the 18th century. When each woman encounters unexpected love and gains their self-confidence back, will changing the past give them the happiness they are seeking and in the way they expect?

RETURN TO SUMMERHOUSE, a sequel to THE SUMMERHOUSE, is a tantalizing and very magical tale that will completely monopolize readers' attention. Jude Deveraux is a very talented storyteller who weaves a mystical and enchanting story for everyone to dream about. She easily has you feeling a part of the characters themselves. The pages will zip past and leave you wanting more.

SUMMARY

With her shining gift for "exquisite and enchanting" (BookPage) storytelling, Jude Deveraux sweeps readers away in a breathtaking follow-up to her beloved New York Times bestseller, The Summerhouse -- where a marvelous new adventure awaits.

Magic most definitely resides in the Maine summerhouse where the mysterious Madame Zoya has granted the innermost wishes of its visitors. Now, three women have come to this special place with one thing in common: a painful past they would each like to rewrite. Amy, who hides a heartbreaking loss behind her seemingly perfect marriage and family...Faith, a widow in her thirties whose deepest grief is for a man from years ago...and Zoë, an artist shunned by her hometown for reasons she doesn't know, after a traumatic night erased her memory. With their mystical powers, Madame Zoya and her sister Primrose are about to transport the trio to eighteenth-century England to alter Amy's ancestry. But although surprises await each of them, will stepping back in time bring the women the happy endings they seek?
