I loved the story of Daniel and Shelly and her children. Daniel's wife was pregnant and died and even though it had been a while he was still struggling. Shelly was divorced and teaching school and trying to find a way to make her children happy without seeing there dad every day. Shelly's husband had cheated on her when they were married and to me he didn't deserve her. It is a great story and I didn't want to stop reading it to see what would happen. I love Shelly's children they were so sweet. So far I have read all in the series and can't wait to read the next one.

Small town in Massachusetts is the setting for some interesting stories of love found... I enjoyed the entire series and recommend these short novels highly... Some rip roaring laughs and some tears too.. Well written and worth the read.

I really loved this book! Its the second in a series about a quaint town on the ocean in Massachusetts. The characters are so real and appealing - regular people, and very likeable. I highly recommend this if you enjoy a well-written, sweet romance about nice folks! I've already started to read the third in the series. Can't get enough of these people!

For those of you who are long time fans of Ms Barrett, be aware that this is a re-print, but a story that is worth revisiting.
For those that are new to her stories, you will fall in love with not only our main characters, Shelley and Daniel, but also with all the inhabitants of Pilgrim Cove. Especially the ROMEOs (Retired Old Men Eating Out) , who like to meddle.
While others will give you a summary of the story, I will tell you that the plot is not only entertaining, but also uplifting. Even those these two individuals have experienced in their lives loss, betrayal, and sadness, they will come to see that love can come around a second time, that a caring town can be supportive and that it’s worth taking another risk with love.
Another touching story by this talented author.
I was gifted this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

Pilgrim Cove Realtor Bartolomew Quinn rents Sea View House to people in relational need as the abode has somehow magically brought people together. Bart is as enchanted as the house and he knows who the right people are for Sea View to weave its spell on. Bart leased the upper floor rents to Harvard Law Professor widower Daniel Stone and his dog, Jessie. The first floor belongs to divorcee Boston schoolteacher Shelley Anderson and her two kids, Josh and Emily. .............................. While Shelley remains emotionally battered from her former spouse¿s philandering and a nasty divorce, Daniel still mourns the accidental death of his wife. Although this couple has no reason to relate, an attraction springs up from the moment they meet. As they heal each other and her hurting children over the summer of love, her odious ex-husband Carl needs his old wife and children back to run for Congress on a family values platform. He blackmails Shelley with the threat of taking her to court over custody of the kids he ignored since their marriage dissolved. Only this time she has Daniel, her kids, a magical house and the Pilgrim Cove locals to help her do battle............................ NO ORDINARY SUMMER is an entertaining second chance at love paranormal (or perhaps just Bart¿s instinctive skills) romance. The lead couple is a fine pairing of two souls deserving of a lot of love. The support cast to include Sea View adds eccentricity, nurturing, and a wonderful mystic spin to the fine tale. Though Carl is an obnoxious opportunist oaf, the latest Pilgrim Cove tale is a fabulous read.............................. Harriet Klausner

Bart Quinn, the realty agent of the beach town known as Pilgrim Cove, only rented 'Sea View House' out to special people in need. The house has a long history of bringing people together. He does not rent it out to just anybody. Oh, no. Somehow, Bart just knows the perfect people when he speaks with them. .................... This summer, the second floor rents out to Daniel Stone, a professor who just accepted a job at Harvard, and his golden retriever, Jessie. Daniel is trying to get on with his life without his wife who died in an accident. The first floor is promised to Shelley Anderson and her two kids, Josh and Emily. They are trying to recover from a painful divorce and learn how to live as a family again. Shelley is timid and still hurting over Carl's adultery. ........................ Even though Daniel and Shelley intended to stay out of each other's way, Fate brings them together. Shelley believes she may even have a second chance at love. Enter Carl who has his eye on an open congressional seat. Carl will look better if he seems to be a devoted family man. If Shelley refuses to come back to him, he intends to take the children away from her. What Carl does not understand, though, is that Shelley is now not only a stronger woman than before, but she has Daniel and the entire town of Pilgrim Cove on her side. .......................... ***** Another winner by author Linda Barrett! Readers will find themselves never wanting to leave Pilgrim Cove and the people who live there. The secondary town characters always have something going on. You simply could not wish for a more witty and fantastic bunch of people. Don't pass up on this incredible read! *****
