Julia’s Joy by Susan G. Mathis

Love at a Lighthouse, Book 2
Terms in her grandmother’s will send Julia Collins to Sister Island on the St. Lawrence River. Julia is accustomed to an active social life. The island only has two residents when she arrives, the lightkeeper and his mother. Before she arrives, she is certain her grief won’t required this much solitude.
William Dodge, the lightkeeper, is recovering from his fiancé ending their engagement, who broke up with him over his occasional bouts with pleurisy. Julia’s lack of faith troubles him and he gives her room to make that journey.
Surprising twists kept me turning pages. Loveable, believable characters drew me into their story. Their heartache tugged at my emotions.
This gentle, well-written love story is highly recommended for those who love to immerse themselves in another time with a great book!
I was given a copy of the book by the author. A positive review was not required.
