Book Description:
Annie Colewater's life fell apart the day her eighteen-year-old daughter left home and her husband of twenty years abandoned her for a younger woman. Shattered, she returns home to the small Washington town of Mystic, seeking solace to the haunting emptiness of her own soul. Here, a broken woman will open her heart to a shattered little girl and her father, Nick Delacroix, an embittered, grieving widower. These three lost hearts find the courage to trust in love again--never expecting the turn of events that will force Annie to make a harrowing choice between what is . . . and what could be.

"SUPERB...I'LL HEARTILY RECOMMEND ON MYSTIC LAKE TO ANY WOMAN... WHO DEMANDS THAT A STORY LEAVE HER IN A SATISFIED GLOW." - The Washington Post Book World

Annie Colwater's husband has just confessed that he's in love with a younger woman. Devastated, Annie retreats to the small town where she grew up. There, she is reunited with her first love, Nick Delacroix, a recent widower who is unable to cope with his silent, emotionally scarred young daughter. Together, the three of them begin to heal. But just when Annie believes she's been given a second chance at happiness, her world is turned upside down again, and she is forced to make a choice that no woman in love should ever have to make...

On MYSTIC LAKE is the story of one woman, but it speaks to all of us - to anyone who has ever had to find the courage to choose between what is... and what could be.

I totally loved this book and hated to see the last page come. I could read it again and again. Kristin Hannah is great. I've read several of her books and love them all.

Kristen Hannah is a wonderful writer. This is one of her earlier ones about a woman whose husband leaves her without a warning and how she puts her life back together again. It's a good, easy read!

Annie Colwater puts her daughter on a plane to England for the summer she has always been a wife and mother. She is sad at her daughters leaving but thinks she willhav more time for her husband. Instead he confesses that he is in love with another younger woman. She had missed all the signs and is heart broken and not sure how to get over this. It is a great book as most of Kristin Hannah's are.
