A Month at the Shore is a contemporary romance with a dash of suspense. The Author (Antoinette Stockenberg) weaves a wonderful story showing in amazing hindsight how ones childhood shapes the person we become, the thoughts we have and the reactions we experience to future events. A childhood trauma brings forth a (gawky) knight in shining armour for a less than traditional princess who makes her escape from the town that looked down upon her family as quickly as possible. 

With the death of a father who is not missed Laura Shore must now, as an adult, return to the town that she ran from to assist her sister and her brother in dealing with the family nursery now in great disrepair. Enter the knight in shining armour now grown – banker Kendall Barclay III. Misunderstandings from childhood have grown into very adult pain. Recent history has not been kind to the Shore family but there is hope. 

A Month at the Shore has romance, suspense, a little comedy and a lot of heart. You WANT to see this family succeed, to figure out the mysteries within from their history and their present. Stockenberg has created a world you just want to fall into and immerse yourself in the twists and turns and complications that this family must face. Definitely a quiet afternoon must read!
