Summer at Cedar Lake

Book 5 in the Birch Harbor Series

Claire Burkey came to Cedar Lake to test a theory. Life might feel different if she slowed down long enough to notice it. With a remote tech job, a rented cabin, and three quiet months ahead of her, she plans to stay focused and keep to herself. But Cedar Lake has other plans. A local summer concert series pulls her into a swirl of rehearsals, neighbors, and everyday kindness that begins to feel like belonging. At the center of it all is Adam Crawford, a steady fisherman who knows every shoreline and has a way of making her forget her schedule. As Claire helps organize the concerts and settles into the rhythm of small town life, she has to decide if this summer is just a temporary break or the start of something real. Summer at Cedar Lake is a sweet small town romance about showing up, taking chances, and finding love where you least expect it.
