    About this ebook

    Sometimes appearances aren't what they seem…

    Grace Lindstrom has followed her fiancé across three continents, starry-eyed in love and full of hope. But when Grace realizes the life she's been living is nothing but a lie, she returns home to Summer Island, the sleepy town where she grew up, to put the pieces of her life back together.

    By day, she perfects rare chocolate recipes for a new book. By night, she helps her father at his veterinary clinic—until the moment Sam Walker comes into her life. Just home from duty in Afghanistan, Sam has too much baggage of his own to deal with a heartbroken chef. But when a violent storm traps them together for a night, he learns there's more to Grace than he imagined—and suddenly, she's all that matters….

    "Complex and multi-faceted…Skye has written one finely crafted, very romantic love story." —Publishers Weekly on Bride of the Mist

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      3 1/2 stars.
      This book was odd. But I liked the odd.

      grace your female lead
      Noah your hero.
      add some family then friends
      you find home :)

      I did feel like this book had A LOT going. it started off in DC then went oregon. I hated you didnt really get a lot of connection time with Noah and grace. but I did like the added friends and all.

      I didnt like all the errors in the book. sentence fragments. grammar errors. I didnt like how on the back of the book it was Noah Mckay but in the book it was mcleod or w/e but I got over that.

      basically not a 4 stars because I did not like how busy the book was. but I do def wanna try knitting :)
