Summer on Mirror Lake

by JoAnn Ross Narrated by Ashley Klanac

Overview

Summertime is the best time to lose yourself in the romance of Honeymoon Harbor...

When he lands in the emergency room after collapsing at the funeral of a colleague and friend, Wall Street hotshot Gabriel Mannion initially rejects the diagnosis of an anxiety attack. But when warned that if he doesn't change his adrenaline-fueled, workaholic lifestyle he could end up like his friend, Gabe reluctantly returns to his hometown of Honeymoon Harbor to regroup.

As he adjusts to the sight of mountains instead of skyscrapers, Gabe discovers advantages to this small Pacific Northwest town he once couldn't wait to escape. But it's irresistible librarian Chelsea Prescott who, along with the two foster children she's taken under her wing, makes slowing down seem like the best prescription ever.

Over the course of their summer romance, Gabe gets a taste of the life he might have had if he'd taken a different path. But with his return to New York City looming on the horizon, he'll have to choose between the success he's worked tirelessly for and a ready-made family who offers a very different, richly rewarding future...if he'll only take the risk.

Don't miss Second Chance Spring, JoAnn Ross's much-anticipated return to Honeymoon Harbor where the majestic scenery of this small coastal town is second only to the legendary romances that have built the community.
