The Cottage on Grasshopper Lane

Book excerpt: They say that life gets easier as you grow older. Stephanie Freeman couldn't agree less. Weeks before her fiftieth birthday her life has fallen apart, and the last thing that she wants to do is go away on vacation. With her soon to be ex-husband still living at home and a hefty nonrefundable deposit already paid, she's reluctantly decided that she has no other option but to spend her summer alone in the beach house that her family has rented for years. She has nothing but wonderful memories of the summers spent on Grasshopper Lane, memories that now include a marriage that doesn't exist anymore and family and friends who are full of questions that she has no answers to. How can she move on when she's surrounded by the past? The small, seaside town of Whispering Cove has a lot of surprises in store for her that summer, she just doesn't know it yet! Laughs, second chance romance, friendship, and finding strength from sorrow sum up this story that takes place in the quaint town of Whispering Cove, Maine.
