#1 NY TIMES Bestselling Ebook!

Readers who enjoy books by Luanne Rice, Kristin Hannah and Susan Wiggs will enjoy this emotional and compelling story of family secrets and romantic adventure from award-winning author Barbara Freethy.

This is a full length novel of approximately 100,000 words.

From the back cover:

There are secrets meant to be shared and those that must be kept forever ...

Bestselling author Barbara Freethy presents her most powerful contemporary novel - the story of three unique sisters ... the secrets that bind them for life ... and the summer that will set them free.

Eight years ago, the three McKenna sisters - Kate, Ashley, and Caroline - had their fifteen minutes of fame. Driven by their ambitious father, they won an around-the-world sailing race as teenagers. But something happened out on the turbulent sea - during a fierce storm they could never forget ...

Now Tyler Jamison has come to Castleton, a picturesque island off the coast of Washington State, asking questions about the famous McKennas. But even as the sisters close ranks against the tenacious reporter, the past threatens to drown them in its wake. It will take Caroline's willingness to right a wrong, Ashley's struggle to face her greatest fears, and Kate's attempt to embrace life - and love - again to finally calm the winds and stop the rain...

Reviews:

"Freethy's zesty storytelling will keep readers hooked, and the sisters' loving but prickly interactions will make anyone with a sibling smile." Publishers Weekly

"Freethy skillfully keeps the reader on the hook, and her tantalizing and believable tale has it all - romance, adventure, and mystery." Booklist

"Freethy is at the top of her form. Fans of Nora Roberts will find a similar tone here, framed in Freethy's own spare, elegant style." Contra Costa Times

"SUMMER SECRETS is a knock-your-socks-off tale of deception, family, and love. Master storyteller Barbara Freethy draws readers into the characters' lives on the first page and keeps them engrossed and enthralled to the end. This riveting tale of love and forgiveness, of letting go and beginning anew will resonate in readers' hearts long after the last page is turned." Romance Reviews Today

"SUMMER SECRETS is a marvelous story about relationships, especially the strong bond between three sisters and their father who has fallen from grace." ReaderToReader.com

A bit slow to get to any point. But the end made me cry. ( )

This was a good book. I wish the editor did a better job with the editing. There were quite a few grammatical and spelling errors in the book, however I enjoyed the story. ( )

This is the first Barbara Freethy book that I have read. I didn't know what to expect. I would classify it as a summer contemporary romance. There was a bit of an underlying mystery to it as well.
Tyler Jamison, a reporter, comes to Castleton to find out some information about the McKenna family. He tries to interview the father, Duncan, and the three sisters, Kate, Ashley, and Caroline about their win in a sailing race around the world 8 years earlier. However, the McKenna family is a tight-lipped group, and they are wary of his questions.
It seems that Kate's love, Jeremy Amberson, was lost at sea during that sailing trip. Ashley is in love with Jeremy's brother, Sean, but feels guilt about Jeremy. Caroline is hiding secrets, too. As Tyler continues to ask questions, Kate warms to him, but is still cautious.
Everything comes to a head when there is a storm in the harbor. Truths come out, and lives are changed.
The story was well written, with the right amount of romance and mystery.
