I love anytime I can visit my friends at the lake. It is my favorite vacation spot. Thanks again SJ McCoy for taking me away.
Take These Broken Wings by SJ McCoy is another great romance set in what is becoming my most loved fictional destination, Summer Lake. This novel is book 1 in a spin off series Summer Lake and features many characters from the original series. I can attest,however, that this is a stand alone novel, as I read Take These Broken Wings before finishing the other Summer Lake series. SJ McCoy does such an awesome job of weaving the back story into her current novel, I ,never wondered about the how the characters connected. I loved the novels I read from the Summer Lake series and found Take These Broken Wings to be an excellent start to the new Summer Lake Seasons series!
I have come to love all of SJ McCoy’s creative works. Her characters are well-developed, displaying a depth of feelings as real as if they were your neighbors. She is a genius storyteller. She places her characters into dilemmas that seem insurmountable. Then just when you believe all is lost, SJ creates the perfect solution. Everyone lives happily ever after, a must for every good romance novel. Take These Broken Wings, has some steamy love scenes, but I love how SJ McCoy balances this with sweet fun romance. After all there is more to strong relationships than sex, correct? And the residents of Summer Lake have fun together. It makes me wish I could live there! And that is why SJ McCoy is on my favorite Romance Writer list!
Honestly, I have never read a SJ McCoy book I disliked. And I am sure you will love her books as I have!
CAn Angel and Luke hace it all? After a year pinning for each other, a car accident push them together and they are happy but when the job of his dreams come acros, will Luke take it and leave Summer Lake? Will they have a chance as a couple in a long distance relationship? They will find their happily ever after.
Loved Luke and Angels story and all the characters of Summer’s Lake. I always enjoy SJ McCoy’s books.
This is such a sweet book. I fell in love with Luke! He is such a good guy that made me feel good and knew he would be upbeat and there when you need him. I was so glad to see Angel finally give him a chance even though the circumstances bringing together were not too good. I liked that Angel looked the naysayers that thought she was using Luke in the eye and told them exactly how she felt about Luke. There are so many good people living in their small town especially their good friends. I always love catching up with characters from past books. This is a good book that I strongly encourage you to read the book. I voluntarily read an Advanced Reader’s Copy of this book.
This book is a great read.
I love how Luke comes to help after being turned down multiple times. How the romance blossoms.
This is the first novel in a new series of Summer Lake, and what a fantastic introduction it is! Angel and Luke finally get together when he steps up to the plate when she needs him most. It is great to catch up with some of my favourite characters. Will Luke and Angel be able to overcome their pasts in order to be together? Will career choices be the end of them? No spoilers; this is a definite must read, you will not be disappointed! This is a beautifully written story, which has me totally captivated throughout this addictive page turner, and I cannot wait to read more in this awesome series, hopefully Clay’s story! I highly recommend this talented authors’ work for all readers!
Welcome back to the lake. It’s always good to visit Summer Lake because you know you can just relax and enjoy the story without all of the needless drama that some books have. You can just enjoy getting involved in the characters and their storylines. You can cheer them to happily ever after. I have to admit that Angel wasn’t my favorite person while reading Ben’s story earlier in the series, but she has been redeemed. And what can you say about Luke? All good things. He’s a sweetheart. Dual point of view. No cliffhanger.
I volunteered to read this book for an honest opinion and was offered no gifts in exchange.
A long distance romance between Luke and Angel. I enjoyed how the story is written and couldn’t put the book down. I enjoy how S.J. writes the books in this series. I look forward to the next one.
I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
