About the Book

On a Summer Tide CoverBook: On a Summer Tide 
Author: Suzanne Woods Fisher
Genre: Christian Fiction Romance
Release Date: April 30, 2019
Sometimes love hurts—and sometimes it can heal in the most unexpected way.
Camden Grayson loves her challenging career, but the rest of her life could use some improvement. “Moving on” is Cam’s mantra. But there’s a difference, her two sisters insist, between one who moves on . . . and one who keeps moving.
Cam’s full-throttle life skids to a stop when her father buys a remote island off the coast of Maine. Paul Grayson has a dream to breathe new life into the island—a dream that includes reuniting his estranged daughters. Certain Dad has lost his mind, the three sisters rush to the island. To Cam’s surprise, the slow pace of island life appeals to her, along with the locals—and one in particular. Seth Walker, the scruffy island schoolteacher harbors more than a few surprises.
With On a Summer Tide, bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher begins a brand-new contemporary romance series that is sure to delight her fans and draw new ones.


My Thoughts
"On a Summer Tide" is the first book in the "Three Sisters Island" series. Unlike all of Suzanne Woods Fisher's other books, this one is NOT an Amish story, but a contemporary romance. I took a chance that I would like this book since I liked her Amish books. I was not disappointed. The book is Cam's story, but we also get parts of the story from her sisters Blaine and Maddie, as well as her father Paul. There isn't, however, any of the story written from the male MC's point of view. The book was well written and the various storylines are woven together. I look forward to reading future books in the series to see what happens with Maddie and Blaine. There were a couple of plot "twists" that I figured out early. One of them, I knew what was happening, but not who was doing it. The other, I knew as soon as a character said something, how that was going to turn out. I still enjoyed the book and wished that I could visit Three Sisters Island.

Oh-So-Maine Blueberry Buckle
Summer in Maine means plump, tart blueberries are everywhere. Here’s a family recipe that is nearly fool-proof….and so delicious! Especially with a scoop or two with vanilla ice cream.
Ever wonder how it got the name Blueberry Buckle? While the batter rises as it bakes, but the blueberries and crumb topping weigh it down. This causes the surface of the cake to buckle…hence the name.

Batter:
¾ cup sugar
¼ cup soft butter
1 egg
½ cup milk
2 cups sifted flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups drained blueberries

Crumb Topping:
½ cup sugar
½ cup flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup softened butter
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix sugar and butter with egg. Stir in milk Sift together and stir in flour, baking powder and salt. Carefully blend in blueberries. Put on topping before baking. Pour in a greased and floured 9” square pan.
Bake 45-50 minutes.
