Publisher's summary

The summer of 1964 certainly was eventful, but it's nothing compared to what's coming to the Brooke family and to Hollyhill, Kentucky. David finally gets up the nerve to pop the question to Leigh, and wedding plans are in the making. But the past is coming to call on many in Hollyhill, threatening to destroy the relationships that everyone thought were so strong. Two people - one David thought was gone for good and the other no one's ever heard of - are making their way to the small town and promise trouble.

This complex and well-written story is the perfect conclusion to the Hollyhill story. With true-to-life family drama, refreshing humor, and lovable characters, Summer of Joy will delight readers.

Captivating story of family love

I really enjoyed Summer of Joy by Ann H Gabhart. It is a heartwarming, charming story of family, of community, and of love--familial and romantic. I see that this book is third in The Heart of Hollyhill series but I think it is easily read as a stand-alone book. The author gives enough of the background stories that I did not feel lost in the details of the plot. The characters are people one would like to have as friends. In the town of Hollyhill, there are plenty of colorful locals, who act as locals do in small towns--they take an interest in each other's lives, pitching in to help when the need arises. I especially liked Wes and his stories about Jupiter. If readers enjoy The Mitford stories by Jan Karon, they will not want to miss The Heart of Hollyhill series. I was given a complimentary copy of the book through Audible and was not required to write a review. The opinions are my own. The author narrates her book and does a great job giving voice to her characters.
