"The perfect escape for readers wanting to get away."—Booklist

One woman takes the vacation of a lifetime in this poignant and heartwarming story about the threads that hold a family together from #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery.

Single mom Robyn Caldwell needs a new plan for her future. She has always put her family first. Now, with her kids grown, she yearns for a change. But what can she do when her daughter has become the most demanding bride ever, her son won’t even consider college, her best friend is on the brink of marital disaster and her ex is making a monumentally bad decision that could ruin everything?

Take a vacation, of course. Press reset. When her great-aunt Lillian invites her to Santa Barbara for the summer, Robyn hops on the first plane to sunny California.

But it’s hard to get away when you’re the heart of the family. One by one, everyone she loves follows her across the country. Somehow, their baggage doesn’t feel as heavy in the sun-drenched, mishmash mansion. The more time Robyn spends with free-spirited Lillian, the more possibilities she sees—for dreams, love, family. She can have everything she ever wanted, if only she can muster the courage to take a chance on herself.

Don't miss #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery's latest masterpiece, For the Love of Summer, a captivating story that weaves together the complexities of family, friendship, and unexpected bonds.

Good story, terrible narrator

I enjoy this authors books but they alway use this particular narrator. I can’t stand her voice or her tone

Great Summer Read!

I loved this book and wish there was a sequel. Very well written, believable main characters. Heart warming growth of both Harlow & Robin. Highly recommend!

Really enjoy the speaker

I appreciate her voice and am amazed at the different qualities she presents. I also enjoyed the story. While the kids were self-absorbed initially, they learned from their experiences.

Loved it

BEST end of summer read!

Wouldn’t change a thing with the characters, story, or narrator. Gave my morning walks a little extra adventure!

Loved it.

A thoroughly wonderful listen. I enjoyed every moment of this book. A grown woman who has finally had enough of everyone in her life acting like spoiled petulant children does the unexpected. She packs up and goes to visit her beloved elderly, brilliant loving aunt. Basically she runs away from her adult children, ex-husband and best friends all of whom constantly expect her to fix everything for them and do their bidding. It’s a winding road to Robyn rediscovering herself, what she wants and taking control of her own destiny. Oh and finally for all those around her to grow up themselves, Truly loved this listen.
