At Lighthouse Point

"Maybe the tricky part in life was aligning the gift with the vocation. And trickier still was what to do when the gift left." Ah, the long-awaited conclusion to The Three Sisters Island series. I've been looking forward to Blaine's story ever since the first book and it was fascinating that this book was more about Blaine's journey to self-discovery, forgiveness, healing, and responsible adulthood than romance. There are plenty of flashbacks to give the reader a glimpse of her childhood to see what shaped this young woman. All the three sisters - Cam, Maddie, and Blaine - have a voice in the story as well as their father Paul. It was nice to catch up with Cam and Maddie and their respective husbands and growing families from the first two books. Paul does a lot of soul-searching when his estranged father shows up on the island and it was intriguing to see a different side of his personality. I understand that the author was trying to tie all the sisters' and their father's stories together for this conclusion of the series (and I loved the subplots involving Cam and her need for control, Maddie and her anxiety, and Paul and his life's purpose) but Blaine's story didn't feel like the centerpiece of the book...or maybe that was the author's intention? It was satisfying to see Blaine grown up, having worked hard to earn her culinary degree in Paris, but still with delightfully glorious dreams and now the motivation to see things through. I enjoyed Jean-Paul, Blaine's culinary French friend, who brought humor and wisdom to the Grayson family. I would have liked more interaction with Artie and was disappointed that he mainly served in the medical professional role for most of the book. The multiple romances and the promise of happily-ever-afters will definitely have you sighing contentedly at the end. I do recommend reading the series in order to understand all the main characters and their backgrounds. I received the book via Celebrate Lit Tours and was under no obligation to post a positive comment. All opinions are solely my own.

At Lighthouse Point by Suzanne Woods Fisher Blaine Grayson, the baby of the family has come home from studying abroad in France and can't get anyone in her family to take her seriously. They think she's young, immature, and stupid. So she does the only thing she can to get them to take her seriously, she starts a brand new business by herself and strives to make it a success. It's a delightful story, revisiting Three Sister's Island, where her father Paul along with her older sisters Cam and Maddie live with their husbands. The book is a sweet conclusion to the story of Three Sister's Island. The series has a nice place on my favorites' shelf, to be read again and again. Much thankfulness to #revell and #librarything for the complimentary copy of #atlighthousepoint I was under no obligation to post a review.
