Search - Snowfall At Willow Lake (Lakeshore Chronicles, Bk 4)

This is the 4th "Lakeshore Chronicles" book. Having read the other 3, I was a bit apprehensive in reading Sophie Bellamy's story. She was the ex-wife who virtually abandoned her kids. But Wiggs does a nice job of explaining the importance of Sophie's work and then the necessity of her moving to Avalon to be with her kids after she is taken hostage in Holland. Here is a nice romance which works through the problems of differences in life style, age differences and issues about family and children. I enjoyed this book lot!

Took me a few pages to get into the book. When I started it was wondering why I was bothering but by the second chapter was hooked.

Sophie Bellamy has been protrayed in the earlier stories as the former wife & absentee mother - and I'm sure I had a rather poor impression of her character. Although it seemed as if Sophie was a selfish, career-driven woman, this story peels away the layers and reveals the real woman. Although it takes a life-threatening event to bring Sophie back to her family and discovery of her real values in life, she is actually a brave, caring woman. Her love interest, Noah, breathes new life (and, as a bonus, a lot of humor) to this story. I really got caught up in the lives of Sophie & Noah, and of Max & Daisy & Daisy's baby. You won't be disappointed, but expect to laugh, cry & worry about how this wonderful story will end. I've enjoyed ALL the Lakeshore Chronicles, but this one in particular touched my heart. A special place in my "keeper shelf" for these stories!

Yes, as always, I enjoyed her book, very much.
Her books always keep me reading, as long as possible.
I just don't want to put it down, until it is finished.

I read this book first in the series. I think I liked Sophie better in the rest of the books because I read this one first; however, if I hadn't I can see how people would think she was kind of cold.

The continuing story(s) of the folks of an upstate NY Catskill Mtn. town...This one mainly covered Sophie Bellamy's story and it brought the character to life for me and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Love the the way the author interweaves other characters throughout.... Will read the entire series!
