Retired and widowed Gloriana Jones is forging on with the plans she and her late husband dreamed of—bringing joy and happiness, one ice cream cone at a time, to Lake Unami. But bad weather is drowning her dream.
A trip to Upstate NY is bittersweet for Nathan James. He is excited to see his first granddaughter but without his wife he's lonely. When his car breaks down, he heads to the only light he can see, an ice cream shop.
With aid from a heavenly source, electricity sparks, but will the two weather the summer storms and find love a second time? Or will their hopes and dreams melt away?
My Review:
Part of the wonderful One Scoop or Two series, this book fulfills a need like a really well put together sundae. Kudos to the author for giving the world a love story about two 'experienced' people who have already each had to face the death of a long-time spouse.
Written with grace and dignity, this book resonates romance tempered with common sense and understanding. Gloriana and Nathan are a terrific couple. The attraction is instantaneous, but they are mature enough to realize that you look before you leap. They do leap of course; they just are thoughtful enough to realize that is the next logical step when the time is right.
The overarching theme of rainbows carries the book with an almost mystical style. Well written, very readable, cute, romantic, and funny. This is a wonderful little read. I recommend this book to every fan of Hallmark books and/or movies. I also recommend this to all fans of the One Scoop or Two series. A great summer read for all.
My Rating: 5+ stars
