Summer Shadows

When Abby Patterson moves to Seaside, she witnesses a hit and run that injures a little girl. As the only one who could identify the driver of the hit and run car, Abby soon finds her life endangered. Her overly protective parents come to visit. And Marsh Winslow, her landlord, drives her crazy before she discovers she's become crazy for him.

Marsh anticipated that the librarian who rented the second floor of his beach front home would be a quiet, introverted spinster, perfect for the solitude he needed to write his novel. Instead he got Abby, and he's taken aback by all the confusion that swirls around her. Then he finds himself just plain taken with her.

Add to this Marsh's best friend, a movie star who wants to be a regular guy, and Abby's new best friend, the mother of the hit and run victim, and things get more complex.

As Abby struggles find a godly way to make her parents realize that they must release her, Marsh encourages her. As Marsh tries to find a way to regain his father's respect, lost when he chose to follow the Lord, Abby supports him.

Together they learn that even fractured lives can be made whole by God's grace.
