“Second to last of the Cutler series. A lot of tragedy, but oddly lighter than the rest of the series. A lot of things come to light, that of course no one sees coming. Good book, can't wait to read the last one. ”

I guess I have to be harsh on this one. This wasn't even a story. There was no problem or anything building up to that. There just seemed to be situations that happened and they talked their way through them or they were just blown off like it didn't matter. The characters were not developed at all and I'm still trying to figure out where the suspense in this book is. Is it Dawn dealing with her obsessed brother, or her jealous sister that threatens her and beats her until she miscarries her baby? Or is it finding Dawn's husband's sister and finding she has behavioral issues such as stealing and sexual curiosities at the age of 10.
There never seemed to be any purpose to this story except that you are being informed of the completely dysfunctional lives of the Cutlers and Longchamps'. I absolutely DO NOT recommend this book because it was just not worth the time. It kinda reminded me of the stories I would write when I was about 12 or 13. That's how undeveloped this story is!

“This book had absolutely no format, not character forming, no problems to work out. It was just basically the telling of a dysfunctional family's issues and sins. No suspense and I really had no remorse for anyone in the book.”

At last Dawn can create a haven of warmth and love for her beautiful baby girl, Christie, and her darling Jimmy. Dawn is a huge success as the new owner of the Cutler's Cove hotel...and soon she and Jimmy will be blessed with a child of their own.
Yet Dawn cannot quell her forebodings of evil. She can sense Grandmother Cutler's presence everywhere...can feel her bitter hatred as if the old lady plotted her vengeance from the grave. When Dawn discovers that her brother, Philip, still clings to his mad, shameful passion for her, she is heartstricken. Her spiteful, jealous sister, Clara, is far easier to ignore...until the day Clara's childish rage explodes into violence, destroying Dawn's most cherished, precious dream.
Then Christie's father, debonair singing star Michael Sutton, returns. Now, as the heartaches and scandals of the past threaten to engulf her, Dawn must fight for her steadfast Jimmy...for only with Jimmy's love can she find the rainbow at the end of the storm.
