Barefoot Summer By Denise Hunter Giveaway!




Madison’s heart has been closed for years. But one summer can change everything.
In the years since her twin brother’s drowning, Madison McKinley has struggled to put it behind her. Despite the support of her close-knit family and her gratifying job as a veterinarian in their riverside town, the loss still haunts her.
To find closure, Madison sets out to fulfill her brother’s dream of winning the town’s annual regatta. But first she has to learn to sail, and fast.
Beckett O’Reilly knows Madison is out of his league, but someone neglected to tell his heart. Now she needs his help—and he’ll give it, because he owes her far more than she’ll ever know.
Madison will do anything—even work with the infamous Beckett O’Reilly—to reach her goal. And as much as she’d like to deny it, the chemistry between them is electrifying. As summer wanes, her feelings for him grow and a fledgling faith takes root in her heart.
But Beckett harbors a secret that will test the limits of their new love. Can their romance survive summer’s challenges? And will achieving her brother’s dream give Madison the peace she desperately seeks?

In 1996, inspired by the death of her grandfather, Denise began her first book, writing while her children napped. Two years later it was published, and she's been writing ever since. Her husband says he inspires all her romantic stories, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too!

Can two people with such different backgrounds fall in love and make it?
You have to read Barefoot Summer to get the answer.
As most of you know I am a huge Denise Hunter fan, very few authors write fiction as well as her.
I have to be very honest this book was so good I could not put it down.I am about to die that I have to wait for book two in the Return to Chapel Spring series Dancing with Fireflies until April 2014.
I could read a book by Denise everyday of the week and be happy.
I highly recommend this book and I gave it, yes you guessed 5 stars.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher for my honest review.

  10. This book Barefoot Summer sounds really good! I've enjoyed all three of The Big Sky Series, Reese: All Along[out of Smitten], The Convenient Groom and Game of Love [out of the Aloha novella]. My favorite book of Denise Hunter's is A Cowboy's Touch!
