Synopsis (from Goodreads): Lucy Marinn is a glass
artist living in mystical, beautiful, Friday Harbor, Washington, with a
boyfriend, Kevin, who she believes is her soul mate. She has always had a
magical side - a gift that finds its way into the breathtaking
glasswork she creates - and she struggles to keep it contained. But when
Lucy is blindsided by the most bitter kind of betrayal, she questions
many of her choices. Her boyfriend leaves her and his new lover is none
other than Lucy's own sister. Lucy's bitterness over this devastation is
multiplied buy the fact that she has constantly made the wrong choices
in her romantic life.
Meanwhile, facing the severe disapproval of
Lucy's family, Kevin asks his friend Sam Nolan, a local vineyard owner
on the San Juan Island, to "romance" Lucy so that she can more easily
move on. But when Sam and Lucy begin to feel real sparks between them,
Lucy must ask herself if she can easily risk her heart again.
As
Lucy questions her beliefs about love, loyalty, and old patterns,
mistakes, and new beginnings, she explores the possibility that some
things in life - even after are being broken - can be re-made into
something beautiful. And that is the only by discovering who you really
are that you can find the one who truly deserves you.
My Thoughts: This was a fun book! An easy read, beautiful setting, a little magic, a heart-melting hero, and a happy ending. What more do you need? The backgrounds of both main characters were a little extreme but not necessarily implausible, though they did make the characters a little hard to relate to at times. There were a lot of quirky side characters and you could pick out the budding romance for the second book in this trilogy, which I will happily read! The one thing I would have really liked to see more of was the magic. I do not feel like this aspect was fully developed.
If your looking for a nice summer read, go ahead and add Rainshadow Road to your list!
