While summering in the seaside town of Hubbard's Point, Conn., Emma Lincoln, Stevie Moore and Maddie Kilvert, the titular beach girls, were inseparable, but as adults, they've drifted apart. Stevie lives like a hermit in Hubbard's Point, unaware that her old friend Emma died in a car crash, leaving behind a husband, a child and secrets. When widower Jack brings his daughter, Nell, to the Point, Nell searches out her last link to her mother: Stevie. A bestselling children's author, Stevie is drawn to Nell and her attractive dad.

great! I can't wait to read this.

(I taped the "limited series" that has been on Lifetime for the past few weeks, but I didn't want to watch it until I read the book. My teenage daughter has been driving me nuts because she wants to watch it with me...I have no idea who the young guys are, but Rob Lowe looked good.)

Journal Entry 5 by bookreadera from Pottstown, Pennsylvania USA on Monday, September 19, 2005
Well, the book wasn't bad-but I actually liked the limited series on Lifetime more. The characters were more fleshed out and the dialogue was better in the mini-series. Not a bad beach/vacation read though. Sending out to SapphireFaery22 today.

I received this in the mail at the end of last week. I'm going to start reading it tonight or tomorrow and will get it in the mail to the next person by Friday most likely. I apologize for not posting sooner.

UPDATE: I read this last week and LOVED it! I'm currently unable to use my laptop because of a virus of some sort and haven't been able to get online in nearly two weeks. My inbox was full and I've lost the majority of my older email messages so I'm emailing the person after me for their address again and will get this in the mail as soon as I hear back from them. I apologize for the wait.

Journal Entry 11 by wingglade1wing from McLeansville, North Carolina USA on Thursday, December 22, 2005
Received in the mail today. It's behind several other rings but I hope to get lots of reading done over the holidays--fingers crossed! More later...

Journal Entry 12 by wingglade1wing from McLeansville, North Carolina USA on Thursday, February 2, 2006
Nice, solid romantic story. I needed a lighter read and this was a good one. I could identify with Stevie in one way (not the thin, beautiful, artistic, and serial bride ways), in that she had an idyllic childhood and is always searching for that same kind of love. I also feel there will never be for me the kind of unconditional joyous love that my family shared when I was a child. One drawback to a happy childhood is never being able to live up to it in later years...

Anyway, thanks for sharing this one Skunkie86. I apologize again for the delay in moving this along. When it rains bookrings, it pours!

I have PMed the next person and await an address to get this one going again.

Arrived today. I will move this up to read after I finish my current book so I can move it along this book ray.

Journal Entry 19 by wingbooklady331wing from Cape Coral, Florida USA on Tuesday, April 11, 2006
Luanne Rice has a way of understanding human behavior and how it is played out in life. Though I enjoyed the book, I felt the book is about 100 pages too long. Many of the subplots could have been resolved quicker. It felt that they were drug out in order to make the book longer.

I am waiting for Suebo to send me her address so I can send it off to her. I've sent her something before, but didn't keep the address.

Journal Entry 20 by wingbooklady331wing from Cape Coral, Florida USA on Saturday, April 15, 2006
Haven't heard from Suebo, so I am skipping her and PMing Bigbird2002 who is next on the list.

Journal Entry 21 by wingbooklady331wing from Cape Coral, Florida USA on Sunday, April 16, 2006
Bigbird2002 asked to be skipped so I am PMing Tnelson. Hope to get this book sent off this week.


Tnelson isn't in the database for BC, so I will PM the next person on the list.

This is the first time that I've had such difficulty with a bookring/ray. :)
