The Summer Six began their friendship in their youth reuniting each summer as their families returned to their summer homes. Now 4 of the women will enjoy an extended summer reunion on Shipwreck Island. The 4 women are at pivotal times in life as divorce, empty nest, loss of a twin, and exhaustion from work all influence their acceptance to enjoy the time together. A heartwarming story of supportive friendship, love, personal choices and personal growth, and new beginnings that may bring changes to each of their lives.

Marketed as a trilogy I found it reminded me of the serial type presentation of the 5 books read earlier this year with the title "The Beach House" as the "Clearwater Bay" Series by Megan Jacobs. At the opening of Books 2 and 3, Kathi Daley gives a slight recap of the previous book as though a reader might read one of the books as a stand-alone or might read the series out of order. I can't imagine a reader enjoying any of the titles as a stand-alone with abrupt cliff-hanger endings for Books 1 and 2 that I enjoy as the end of a chapter but not as the end of a book. Thankfully with a subscription to Kindle Unlimited all selections were free, regardless of selecting individual titles of the "Island Reunion" Series or selecting "Summerhouse Reunion - The Complete Story" (Books 1-3).

Please note: On the author's website, the 3 titles of a) "The Summerhouse," b) "Topsail Sundays," and c) "Campfire Secrets," comprise the "Island Reunion" Series. On LibraryThing and Amazon, the 3 individual titles are presented as the "Summerhouse Reunion" Series. ( )
