Grace has taken care of her widowed father her entire adult life and the ornery old goat has finally died. She has no job, no skills and very little money, and has heard her father's prediction that no decent man would ever want her so often she accepts it as fact.
But she does have a big old house on Lawyers Row in Peacock, Tennessee. She opens a rooming house and quickly gathers a motley crew of tenants: Promise, Grace's best friend since kindergarten, who's fighting cancer; Maxie, an aging soap opera actress who hasn't lost her flair for the dramatic; Jonah, a sweet, gullible old man with a crush on Maxie.
And Dillon, Grace's brother's best friend, who stood her up on the night of her senior prom and has regretted it ever since. Dillon rents Grace's guest house for the summer and hopes to make up for lost time and past hurts - but first, he'll have to convince Grace that she's worth loving....

She has created strong characters who experience challenges and face them with humor as well as bravery.
A book that could have been depressing is in fact extremely entertaining.
I highly recommend this one.

Any additional comments?
This book came alive for me, I became friends with these characters. The author runs the gamut through all the emotions. I Howled with laughter, and sobbed rivers of tears, felt fear and anguish. It truly became a 3D book for me. I loved it and highly recommend it, although I do caution that reading it in public might elicit a few curious glances.5 STARS!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Since I wrote this story, it's natural that I love it, but I was newly thrilled to hear it in someone else's voice. What a voice it was. She nailed the characters as well as if she'd written them.What about Rebecca Gibel’s performance did you like?
She became the people and I was lost. I found myself surprised at what happened next, because the story became hers when she told it.Thank you, Rebecca Gibel!

The story’s theme is of building a family, whether biological or not, to love and be loved by right back. The reader gets to know and experience the quirky characters’ growth through life’s daily challenges, its most terrible events and its unexpected, wonderful moments of joy. Put on your most comfy robe, pull up a porch swing, grab a glass of wine and enjoy this beautiful story.

Well, this story was not, in my opinion, in that genre. It is the story of Grace Elliot, the youngest child in a very disfunctional family. Her older siblings were the "perfect" ones and she was the messed up one. She was even stood up for the prom by her brother's best friend, Dillon. The story begins with Dillon walking back into her life, not long after her abusive father has died. The story plays out over the next year with health problems, secrets being revealed, breakups, marriages, and lots of angst. Still, I LOVED IT! Rebecca Gibel's narration added so much to the story and I obsessively listened to it over 4 days. I cried in several parts and felt frankly spent when it was over. I really came to care for Grace and the family that she made for herself.
So, if you are looking for something light, this might not be for you, but if you are looking for a story that will really draw you in, give it a chance.
Not what I was expecting, but still very good

What made the experience of listening to One More Summer the most enjoyable?
This book was one of the best, if not the best, book that I have had the pleasure to listen to in a long time. Liz Flaherty brings each of her characters to life. The range of emotions that this book brings to you makes you feel like you are part of the story! I found myself relating to the characters. I highly recommend this book, but get ready to laugh and cry!Who was your favorite character and why?
I had two favorites--Grace and Dillion. Both characters have a lot of baggage but find a way to lean on each other and find comfort. They are very strong characters.Which character – as performed by Rebecca Gibel – was your favorite?

Would you listen to One More Summer again? Why?
Yes. I enjoyed all of the characters stories. The narrator did a great portrayal of all. I thought the storyline was good. There was a lot going on for a bit but it kept me focused.What did you like best about this story?
The relationship between Promise and Grace. I admire Grace, taking on the weight of the world. Unselfish, caring and giving but closed off. Possibly a candidate for a good role model?Which scene was your favorite?
The reading of Lucy Maude Montgomery's books.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Many. To many to list. It was emotional but worth the read for me. I liked the drama.Any additional comments?
To the gazebo incident: it probably wasn't necessary with everything else. Good tie in to the story, Liz. Ugh. It didn't ruin or taint anything else. It was like a band aid,ripped off fast.Only one bummer
