"Harbor Lights" has proved to be slow-moving at times but gut wrenching at others. This book probably took me the longest of all the books to complete, but it still kept me anticipating the next story!
Right now I'm living to read about the O'Brien family!

Love these easy, light summer reads. Predictable yet entertaining.
I won't rate this book, cause I couldn't finish reading it. Perhaps the hero Kevin was just such a sad character, or the heroine,Shanna, had serious issues also. I have enjoyed
