Susan Wiggs's Lakeshore Chronicles series has captivated thousands of readers with its relatable characters, warm humor and engaging stories. Summer at Willow Lake is the story that started it all. Meet Olivia, Connor and the families and friends of Willow Lake that make these emotional romances a must-read.

Real estate expert Olivia Bellamy reluctantly trades a trendy Manhattan summer for her family's old resort camp in the Catskills, where her primary task will be renovating the bungalow colony for her grandparents, who want one last summer together filled with fun, friends and family. A posh resort in its heyday, the camp is now in disarray and Olivia is forced to hire contractor Connor Davis--a still-smoldering flame from her own summers at camp.

But as the days grow warm, not even the inviting blue waters of Willow Lake can cool the passions flaring or keep shocking secrets at bay. The nostalgic joy of summers past breathes new promise into a special place and people...a promise meant to last long after the season ends.

Don't miss Candlelight Christmas, the latest story in the Lakeshore Chronicles series by #1 New York Times Bestselling author Susan Wiggs.

Friendship with boy at summer camp turns into love years later during renovation of camp.

2.5 stars. Not my usual genre, so maybe my rating should be taken with a grain of salt. I needed something light and distracting. This story of summer camp revisited as an adult pretty much fit the bill. ( )

La reformadora inmobiliaria Olivia Bellamy accedió de mala gana a regresar al campamento de su familia en las montañas Catskills, donde su trabajo consistiría en poner a punto las instalaciones abandonadas para que sus abuelos celebraran allí sus bodas de oro. El campamento Kioga siempre había sido un destino de ensueño, pero su situación actual era tan lamentable que Olivia se vio obligada a contratar los servicios de Connor Davis, el que fuera su amor platónico durante los veranos que habían pasado juntos en aquel lugar.

Enjoyed the descriptions of being at a summer camp for wealthy kids mostly. Never did truly understand why Connor ever wanted to date Lolly during his final year at camp - understood the friendship but not the love. Truly admired Connor for his ability to pull himself up as an adult while dealing with family issues (drunk father, non-caring mother). Also wonder how future books will deal with his half brother, Julian which was an entertaining character. Liked the comparisons of father's behavior to daughter's for dealing with someone of a lower class. Mother exhibited the typical snob attitudes. ( )

Summer at Willow Lake is a fun romance novel that touches some serious themes. The story is set at Camp Kioga in the Catskills. The camp has been owned and operated by the Bellamy family for multiple generations, but it has been shut down for the past nine years. When the novel begins, Olivia Bellamy, a twenty-seven-year-old business woman who owns a company that prepares (or fluffs) homes to be put on the market, is approached by her grandmother, Jane Bellamy. Jane's plan is to hire Olivia to renovate the camp so that she and her husband, Charles, can hold their golden anniversary party there.

Olivia is good at her work, so her business is very successful. However, she's not very good at her relationships with men. Something always goes wrong. Shortly before Olivia's Nana approaches her, Olivia suffers her latest breakup. Although renovating a camp that's been shuttered for so long is a project that will be challenging, an opportunity to get out of the city for the summer is just what she needs. She agrees to handle the project.

One of the first things Olivia needs to do when she arrives at the camp is to hire a contractor. Of course, there's only one contractor in the small town and he turns out to be the person who broke her heart one summer when they were both counselors at the camp.

The plot of Summer at Willow Lake is centered around Olivia's relationship through what is happening in the present as well as flashbacks to her time as a teenager. Yet the story also branches off to touch other romances, including events that happened to Olivia's father back when he was at the camp. I liked way these other stories were woven into the main narrative.

Although the book has some very humorous sections, it also deals with some serious topics such as alcohol addiction and the effects of divorce on children. ( )
