Manhattan resident Natalie Reynolds is enjoying house-sitting for her aunt while hoping to further her artistic aspirations. And Bella Barnaby is helping out in her family’s store. But Bella, who loves life on Dragonfly Lake, is anxious that her fiancé will be offered a prestigious job out west. As these three women intertwine and forge a unique bond they will experience romance, temptation…and the astonishing possibilities that can come into one’s life on a cool summer breeze.

The author has tried to incorporate her real life's son's job in Bio-safety and Bio-Security with some juvenile romance along the way. The book almost hit it with the lake scenes in MA but the story line could not keep up. What a shame.
