I almost gave up on this book. It's pace was slow and heavy with characters thoughts, insecurities and speculation. The heroine's secret was rather predictable. Interaction with her son is why I finished but I skimmed a lot. Rock star Cain is attracted to Maggie the maid.

So, even though I've been on a holiday romance reading kick lately I switched gears entirely and hit summer in Michigan. T...

Summer He Came Home does exactly what it says on the tin, it is a very sweet and entertaining romance but offers no more than that. It is a book you can snuggle up with on a blustery winter's day and forget about life for a little while, and sometimes that is all you need.There was a lot to like abo...
****Posted as a guest review over at paranormalhaven.com**** I’ve been reading a lot more contemporary romance as of late, and I picked up The Summer He Came Home because it looked like it would be a nice, sweet read. And generally, it was. You have a struggling single mom, the bad boy rock star, an...
