Customer Reviews

Love it!

I was delighted with this book. I have read three out of the four so far! I am going to loan all the books to friends, too!

The Promise of Lumby

This is the fourth book of the Lumby series and I don't want it to end. Gail Fraser is a delightful author and I look forward to reading many more of her books. If "Lumby" was a real town I would move there !!!!

promise of Lumby

I enjoyed this book as much as all the others in this series. Hope there will be more!

Promise of Lumby

I loved Gail Frazier's latest book and know all those who feel the need to travel to a quirky little town with some wonderful and interesting characters will feel the same! You can't help but get caught up in the people and all the things going on . The town, the people, animals and the monks give this town so much love, fun and character. Thanks to Ms. Frazier for another great book and one you can't wait to get lost in. My only disappointment is I have to wait until next year for her next release so in the mean time I will just read the Lumby series once again. Not since Jan Karon's Mitford series have I enjoyed reading so much again. I laughed, I cried, I worried and I was completely pulled into this great read.

A Perfect Escape To Happiness

An absolute delight to read from the first page to the last! Lumby comes alive again and the series just keeps getting better and better. The author hits her full stride with this fourth book that draws the reader into the small, captivating town and the lives of its residents who will do most anything to persuade a veterinarian to call Lumby his home. Fraser's writing reminds me that life can be, at its best and worse, hilariously imperfect and all we have to do is sit back, smile and know that we are each blessed in our own quirky way. Thanks for giving us such a breath of fresh air and a dose of much needed happiness.
