Hatteras Girl by Alice J. Wisler

 

I always have a few "summer" books that I will find that are always fun to read during the summer season. They get you in the mood and keep you there. I was lucky to find this story at, where else, my neighborhood Goodwill store!

 

Alice J. Wisler may have been "born and raised in Japan" but she is now a Durham, NC girl. But she sounds like she's lived on the Outer Banks all of her life. She captures the vibe of Cape Hatteras in this story centered around a young woman who has always had a dream of continuing a Bed and Breakfast that she has loved since a child. Her best friend has that same dream and this tory tells how their shared dream may or may not come to pass.

 

You'll have to put your flip flops on and read this book in order to find out if dreams really do come true. I'm not telling!

The Third Heiress by Brenda Joyce



This may be the first book I have read by this author and I have to say she kept me reading.

And that was a good thing because it had rained and rained and rained here in Raleigh, N.C.

I was wondering when the Arc would be floating by and if I could catch a ride.

Ate any rate I sailed through this novel and also enjoyed every morning cup of coffee that went with it. Well I had to make the coffee, it didn't just appear out of nowhere.

This story has mystery, romance, doubts, fears, tragedies and you name it tangled in a family that is as old as a British ancestral line can be.  Enter someone from America who gets obsessed with solving a murder that may have been committed by one of those people perched on the wall of portraits.

Or is it just a mystery that needs to be solved and a vision put to rest?

I think you may enjoy this one. As usual I picked it up at my neighborhood Goodwill.
