Brick Callahan enjoys every minute of chaos at his campground, Stardance Ranch, especially after the Tornado Alleycats arrive for an extended summer stay. The members of the all-female glamorous camping club are primarily seniors—active and adventurous, friendly and fun. But when he discovers Liliana Howe frolicking with the glamping grannies in a late night skinny-dipping session, he fears he's in for a summer of trouble. Because his best friend's kid sister has grown up to be drop-dead gorgeous.
Betrayed by those she trusted, Lili decides she's put her career first for too long. She sells her practical sedan, buys a travel trailer, and heads to Eternity Springs for a summer of rest, relaxation, and reassessment as the newest member of the Alleycats. The last person she expects to find running an RV resort is her high school crush. Their undeniable mutual attraction is a reminder that life is full of surprises. But when the past comes calling, will their summer romance stand the test of time?

As I marked Stardance Summer by Emily March on Goodreads as currently reading, I noticed it was #13 in the series. How did we get that far in this romantic series I love so much. The time has sped by. These books are an auto read for me, and I love every visit to Eternity Springs where the inimitable Celeste, the 'angel' watches over all - especially would be couples, who need a little push and shove to find themselves, heal and reach out to true love.
This time it is Liliana who flees to Eternity Springs because she has struck trouble in her home town and she sure is hurting from it. She joins a feisty group of women out to have a good time, led by Patsy, in a way not dissimilar to the wonderful Celeste in her spirit and ways of life.
Lilana walks right into the camp of Brick Callahan ( and don't get me going on the Callahan men, omg - I love that gang). It's a bit of a shock for Lili, she sets eyes on Brick and realises she has known him as the boy next door, many years ago when he was Mark and her brother's best friend. And... her secret love. He was very good to her but well she still wasn't allowed into their tree house.
Along the way as these two meet up and explore their relationship now, we get to reacquaint ourselves with many of the beloved characters in this town. If you are new to the series you don't have to have read previous books, they all stand alone, however every story is such fun. Many of them join with Celeste to put the screws on Brick when he is following the path all Callahan men seem prone to take, as I said I just love them.
Another heart warming, delightful read and visit to Eternity Springs. One of those small towns you really wish existed and you could visit... or live!

ReplyDeleteThanks for a great review Katherine. This series sounds like a great escape that I would enjoy. It must be well written to be on number 13 of the series.

ReplyDeleteSo tell me Kathryn do you Southern Hemisphere-ers feel put out at all that the only thing published during your winters are beach reads and while your playing in the surf the covers are all snowing LOL ;-)
ReplyDeleteGreat review
Debbie I am used to it now, and besides while sitting by the fire can read of beachy things. Besides I pretty much read beach type reads all year round!!
DeleteI really enjoyed this book as well. I also found this very heartwarming and I enjoyed meeting these characters. This is the first book that I read in the series and I cannot wait to read more. Great review!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. 13 books? That's impressive! I've been meaning to give her a go. This series sounds lovely!
