What a read!

This was a most intelligent and enthralling story; not only intriguing, but sensual as well. All characters were well-thought out and interesting. From the very first, when Tyler appears on the scene, the story and romance grabs you. There was one fascinating plot after another, and I found myself half-crazed to know the secrets, and to see how Tyler and Kate got together, along with Sean and Ashley. And to find out whose baby it was and what became of Jeremy. I have been reading romance/suspense for a number of years and Ms. Freethy has become an addition to list of my best authors.

Suspenseful, hard to put down

If you want a love story wrapped up with some intrigue, SUMMER SECRETS is the book for you. All the while I was reading the book, I was trying to guess the secret ... and never could! The romance and mystery will keep you turning the pages as fast as you can. Great read.

Beautifully crafted ... a definite winner

I, for once, never disappointed with Barbara Freethy, ever since I purchased my first book of her (One True Love) few years ago. She is my favorite author when it comes to family stories. She always manages to write such beautiful, heartwarming, and also real family stories. The joy, the tears, the fears, the loyalty ... they are always there, knotted into one amazing story. She did it again with SUMMER SECRETS. Each character stands out with their own self. The sisters are uniquely different with one another but nevertheless, united with a strong bond called "family. The romance of course, is also beautiful. I love the chemistry between Tyler and Kate, also Ashley and Sean. I just wish Caroline will get her own man. This book is wonderful read ... if you don't know Barbara Freethy, you're missing such a talented author!

This one has everything -- adventure, romance, intrigue

I have always been a fan of Ms. Freethy's books, but she really stretches in this one. Here are the strong, and often emotionally complicated family relationships one expects from her books. But this time we also get a bit of suspense as secrets are slowly unraveled, a touch of adventure on the high seas, and lots more characters and complex relationships. It's a bigger canvas, and the author fills it beautifully. Each of the three sisters is fully realized, each distinct from the others, each with her own secrets and her own fears and her own strengths. I never guessed the truth until it was revealed, and I couldn't put the book down until it was. I highly recommend this book.

A winner...kept me up all night!

This book has got everything - romance, suspense and excitement. Three sisters on a small island off the coast who've had their fifteen minutes of fame but are now, ten years later, forced to face the consequences of that fateful sailboat race they won. Once their pictures were on the covers of every magazine, now all they want to do is to live quiet, normal lives. But their secrets come back to haunt them and they have to deal with them. You won't be able to put it down until you find out what happens!
