Viola Shipman The Summer Cottage Tender and Precious Family Memories



The Summer Cottage by author Viola Shipman is another tender story about family, love, regrets, and starting over. I loved this story as it seems I love all the previous books such as The Bracelet and the Recipe Box. This story is set in Michigan on the shores of Saugatuck. Adie Lou remembers wonderful summer vacations being at Creaky Cottage with her grandparents and later her parents. After she marries the man she thought was her dream, has a wonderful son who is now college age, she begins to find out there is more to life than dreams. Did she leave a part of her true self behind in the years of having a busy career, being a wife and mother? After her parents have passed and her marriage has dissolved into memories, she must make a decision about selling the family cottage or working harder than she ever believed to save Creaky Cottage and starting totally anew. It seems that at each turn a new problem arises.

Follow along with Adie Lou as she uses the all-important rules of Creaky Cottage and campers to find her way in a new and lonely path. Oh, but really it is not so lonely, you will love Sonny!
