First I need to admit my bias. I love and devour every book I can get my hands on written by Melody Carlson. I have read dozens of her books over the years and have yet to be disappointed. She is able to build a strong female character and an interesting read.
Under a Summer Sky does not disappoint and provides a captivating story that provides a nice escape from the world. I read Under A Summer Sky over a weekend. I will admit there are some faults, the story has some flaws and some small things that just couldn’t happen exactly that way. If you are willing to forgive the continuity errors. Carlson invites you to go to Savannah on vacation with art teacher Nicole. The summer however doesn’t turn out as relaxing as Nicole has hoped as tensions arise and a “ghost” or two make an appearance.
If you want an easy read that provides an escape from reality check this book out or many of Melody’s other works.

About
She’s anticipating a quiet summer surrounded by beauty. She never expected a fresh chance at love.
High school art teacher Nicole Anderson is looking forward to a relaxing summer in Savannah, house-sitting and managing an art gallery for a family friend. The house is luxurious in a way that only old money could make it, and the gallery promises interesting days in a gorgeous setting. Yet it isn’t long before her ideal summer turns into more than she bargained for: a snooty gallery employee who’s determined to force her out, a displaced adolescent roosting in the attic, and two of her childhood friends–who also happen to be brothers–vying for her attention.
With the backdrop of a gorgeous historical city, incredible architecture, and even an alleged ghost or two, combined with the opportunity for romance . . . anything can happen!
Bestselling and award-winning author Melody Carlson invites you to spend the summer surrounded by splendor . . . and tantalizing possibilities.
