(free review copy) I inhaled this story the day I downloaded it from NetGalley. I have become a major Lauren K. Denton fan and was ecstatic that she has a new book coming out! THE SUMMER HOUSE did not disappoint and filled all of my expectations of rich character development, atmospheric writing and all kinds of brightness and hope. Can't recommend highly enough for anyone who likes Southern coastal stories.

**NOTE: This is classified as Inspirational and published by a Christian publisher. I note that because I don't typically read books in this genre. However, this book has ZERO Christian-specific content and is instead simply a sweet and "no nakedness" romance. I'm a big fan.
