Dear Readers,

We all have a summer from our youth that defines us. This fall, go back to the lake and experience that defining summer — and everything that comes after — in THE SUMMER THAT MADE US, my new women's fiction, a story about the complexities of family dynamics and the value of strong female relationships. Available now for pre-order! http://www.robyncarr.com/book/the-sum...

Mothers and daughters, sisters and cousins, they lived for summers at the lake house until a tragic accident changed everything. THE SUMMER THAT MADE US is an unforgettable story about a family learning to accept the past, to forgive and to love each other again.

That was then...

For the Hempsteads, summers were idyllic. Two sisters who married two brothers and had three daughters each, the women would escape the city the moment school was out to gather at the family house on Lake Waseka. The lake was a magical place, a haven where they were happy and carefree. All of their problems drifted away as the days passed in sun-dappled contentment. Until the summer that changed everything.

This is now...

After an accidental drowning turned the lake house into a site of tragedy and grief, it was closed up. For good. Torn apart, none of the Hempstead women speak of what happened that summer, and relationships between them are uneasy at best, hurtful at worst. But in the face of new challenges, one woman is determined to draw her family together again, and the only way that can happen is to return to the lake and face the truth. Pre-order your copy today!
