Secrets of the Lost Summer (Swift River Valley, #1)

by Carla Neggers

This story is a tale of riches lost and found, and beneath the surface lie the greatest treasures. A wave of hope carries Olivia Frost back to her small New England hometown nestled in the beautiful Swift River Valley. She is transforming a historic home into an idyllic getaway; picturesque and perfect, if only the absentee owner will fix up the eyesore next door. Dylan McCaffrey's ramshackle house is an inheritance he never counted on. It also holds the key to a generations-old lost treasure he can't resist any more than he can resist his new neighbor. Against this breathtaking landscape, Dylan and Olivia pursue long-buried secrets and discover a mystery wrapped in a love story, past and present.

This was a cute romance. At first, I did not understand why Grace occupied such a big part of the story until her big reveal. Wow! I did not see that coming. The banter between Oliva and Dylan was entertaining, and I enjoyed the time they spent together. These two were killing me with how long they danced around each other, but it was worth it in the end.
