ABOUT THE BOOK
Suzanne's daughter, Campbell, journeys there in search of answers to her questions about her mother's history.
Suzanne's three friends-Lila, Jane, and Meghan-were torn apart by long-buried secrets and heartbreak. Though they haven't spoken in years, each has pieces of a scrapbook they made together in Sweethaven.Suzanne's letters have lured them all back to the idyllic lakeside town, where they meet Campbell and begin to remember what was so special about their long Sweethaven summers.
As the scrapbook reveals secrets one by one, old wounds are mended, lives are changed, and friendships are restored-just as Suzanne intended.

My thoughts...
The stories of four women and the issues they'e dealing with in their lives, I liked every one of the characters and the friendship they shared. Meghan and Jane had an especially sweet renewal of their friendship. A wonderful story of forgiveness. Meghan was watching Jane's son and he accidentally died, she blamed herself and Jane wasn't able to forgive at first.
There is so much depth to the book. The author's writing style is smooth, she really makes you feel as though you are part of the story! I loved this book.
I received a copy of this book free from the publisher through CFBA in exchange for an honest review.
