"Mackinac Island Beacon" by Carrie Fancett Pagels

 About the Book


Plans hatched in 1897 bring friends and family from far distances toward Mackinac Island’s new twin beacons—the Round Island Lighthouse and the Social Affirmation Society’s training/retreat center. A missing daughter, a missing godchild—two young women’s lives have intertwined in ways they could never have known. The solution to both of their mysteries is revealed when all hope has been lost by those seeking them.

Is romance out of the question for Val and Susan, when their hearts begin to heal? Will Paul and Lawrence, friends from their childhoods, brought to the island for work, be their beacons of hope? Can God bring all their paths together or will too many obstacles stand in their way?



My Thoughts

I enjoyed reading this book. It was a lot of fun to see characters I've met in previous books. I love when books are set in my home state of Michigan and Mackinac Island is a special part of our state. It is fun to imagine being there. I did get a bit confused with the various storylines as there were so many people to keep track of. Part of the story was published as part of a novella collection, but it was expanded and fleshed out giving it a more rounded story. I look forward to reading more books by Carrie Fancett Pagels.
