5.0 out of 5 stars Nantucket Love Story #4
Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2016

This is the fourth book in the Nantucket Love Story series. The first three are called Surrender Bay, The Convenient Groom, and Seaside Letters.

Meridith has learned that her father has died, leaving her guardianship of three children she's never seen. Her father left when she was young, and she plans on taking care of the kids until their uncle shows up. She comes to Nantucket and starts running the B&B business, which appears to be in shambles.

Jake has been on the road for weeks without checking in with his sister. When he finally checks his email, he finds frantic messages from his niece, begging him to come home. He gets the impression that Meridith is making life hard for his niece and nephews, and is possibly also mentally unstable. He goes undercover working on the B&B, enlisting the help of the kids, to find evidence that will get guardianship transferred to him.

As time goes by, Jake doesn't see any evidence of mental illness, and he starts to see Meridith has a real desire to protect the children. She wonders what kind of guardian this "uncle" could be if he still hasn't shown up, so you know that reveal isn't going to go well. She also becomes attached to her younger siblings and vows to take care of them, even though her fiance isn't on board with the whole idea of raising someone else's kids.

This one was a real page turner for me. I couldn't wait to see what would happen between Jake and Meridith. The closer I got to the end, the more concerned I became. The truth comes out, as it always does, and bridges need to be mended - and fast! This was a great read I heartily recommend. I don't see any obvious connections to the other books in the series, making this a stand alone title.

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVED LOVED THIS BOOK

I loved everything about this book. Denise's books all make me believe in happily ever afters. Her books are filled with hopes and dreams of a forever love combined with a love and trust in God that all things will work for our good. If we put our relationship with God first all our other relationships fall into place. I absolutely love attraction and loads of chemistry in the books I read and Denise is a MASTER at weaving that into her novels. In fact, many times I want to be the heroine in her books. Thanks so much Denise. Loved the Nantucket series. I highly recommend them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved this story!

In love, people often think they aren't marrying the other person's family or that the past doesn't matter but that's not true! Our childhood and past experiences make us who we are and colors how we look at life. God can get us past those things but they are definitely a factor. In this story, Merideth has deep scars from her childhood and Jake takes information about her mother and questions her stability. It puts walls between them along with suspicion for both of them. They both have good intentions, but they keep information away from each other and others that only complicates the situation. How many times do we do that to protect someone else but it ends in hurt? Great story!

4.0 out of 5 stars Typical, but I enjoyed reading the book
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2014

Although it used the standard lack of communication and deception plot, I did enjoy reading this book. Meredith, the control freak, and Jake, take one day at a time uncle, were likeable characters. I like the fact they weren't rich but had to work for a living. The book shows how mistakes are made when you aren't truthful with one another. The story would have taken a different turn if Uncle Jake had rode in on his white horse and told Meredith the truth while at the same time trying to fix up the house to prevent her from selling it. It is a heartwarming, likeable story but a little slow in moving the characters to their desired destinations.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a FANTASTIC book!!!
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2014

This is such a FANTASTIC contemporary romance! I haven't read the other books in this series. I saw this book on sale yesterday and couldn't resist. After I read the Book Description, I like what I read and knew I wanted to read it. I can't say enough about this book. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down until I finished it. I also put it on my Read Again list. A warning: I went thru quite a few tissues in the last part of the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Overcoming Fear
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2018

Meridith had lived a fearful life with many struggles. It was good to be reminded that a true foundation in God and relying on his word can eliminate all fears. Struggles will continue but reliance on God through all relationships will carry each of us through it as it did Meridith and her new family. Wonderful author. One to follow

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great story
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2015

I have always been drawn to books about bed and breakfasts! This story was filled with every kind of emotion. I loved every moment. I felt the mixed emotions that Meredith experienced facing an uncertain life with three children plus a bed and breakfast to run. I loved Jake from the very beginning. And, I love happy endings and this book didn't disappoint!
