That Certain Summer By Irene Hannon Giveaway!



Karen and Val are family--yet they're anything but close. Karen has carried the burden of responsibility for her aging mother ever since her gorgeous sister left town years ago to pursue a career in theater. But Val had darker reasons for leaving town--as well as a secret to keep--and coming home has never been an option . . . until their mother suffers a stroke.

Reunited in their hometown, Karen and Val must grapple with their past mistakes, their relationship with each other, and their issues with a mother who is far from ideal. When a physical therapist raising his daughter alone and a handsome but hurting musician enter the picture, the summer takes on a whole new dimension. As their lives intersect and entwine, can each learn how to forgive, how to let go, and how to move on? And strengthened by the healing power of faith, might they also find the courage to love?

With her trademark compelling characters and heartwarming hope, fan favorite Irene Hannon offers her readers an inspiring true-to-life tale of complex family relationships, transgressions revealed and forgiven, and the complicated process of finding love.

Mrs. Hannon has wrote a very spellbinding book. One that is very much needed in this day and time. Abortion and forgiveness go hand and hand.
This is a very strong storyline and one I hope all women will read and take something away from it.
I love that people come back to the Lord in this book and I love the two sisters stories as well as the little bit of romance.
This is not a book to miss this summer, it is a great beach read.
I highly recommend this book.
I gave the book 5 stars.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher for my honest review.
