The End-of-Summer Feeling: Why August is the Perfect Time for a Good Book

End of Summer

There's something bittersweet about the last week of August. Long summer evenings are fading and for those with children, the school routine is creeping back in, and fall is peeking just around the corner. For me, this time of year is all about enjoying the quiet, cozy moments while curled up with a book.

Romance novels, especially those set in small towns with a touch of suspense or danger, are the perfect bridge between the lazy warmth of summer and the crisp mystery of fall. They let us escape into stores where love blooms despite danger, and happy endings promise hope even when life feels uncertain.

If you're looking for your next end-of-summer read, look no further than the sultry Lowcountry of South Carolina (Island Medical), Texas rancher country (Rancher's Bend Bride and Groom or Hometown Heroes), or the windswept shores of coastal Maine (Enigma, Maine). You'll find unforgettable characters, passion, and intrigue waiting for you there.

I invite all of you to pick up one of my e-books available on Kindle Unlimited. They're perfect for an August sendoff.
