Comment On Regarding Books Making Waves (Lake Manawa Summers #1)

So glad I read this during the summer! Such a fun seasonal read. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series this summer.

This book drew me in on the very first page when daring, adventurous socialite Marguerite Westing is being courted by the wealthy Roger Gordon (who her mother desperately wants her to marry).

I could go all year, and never read a book this good. The story center on Marguerite Westing and her family, as they spend the summer at beautiful Lake Manawa.

I would recommend this book to people who enjoy reading romantic comedy type stories and to those who are looking for a Christian Fiction read that is more than just a "clean" read. This story had a

I absolutely adored Lorna Seilstad's When Love Calls, which I read last summer, but the next two books of hers that I've read haven't quite lived up to the first. I realise that this is her debut and that her writing will have improved with time, but it took me a while to really get into this book and care about the characters. As much as I enjoyed the historical details about camping at Lake Manawa and sailing, it took a while for the main conflict to emerge. The book started out feeling rather
