New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Sherryl Woods proves once more that home is always where the heart is.
Falling for “Maddening Moira” O’Malley was the unexpected highlight of Luke O’Brien’s Dublin holiday. So when she pays a surprise visit to Chesapeake Shores, Luke is thrilled…at first. A fling with this wild Irish rose is one thing, but forever? Maybe someday, but not when he’s totally focused on establishing a business that will prove his mettle to his overachieving family.
Given Luke’s reaction, Moira has some soul-searching of her own to do. Scarred by her father’s abandonment, she wonders if Luke, with his playboy past, is truly the family man she longs for. Adding to her dilemma, she’s offered an amazing chance at a dream career of her own.
Deep down, though, Moira knows home is the real prize, and that love can be every bit as enchanted as a summer garden.

The Summer Garden
Sherryl Woods
Dear Friends,
Whenever I begin a new series, I always wonder if readers will fall in love with the characters as I have. You have definitely embraced the O’Briens as the complicated, boisterous, loving family I was envisioning as I wrote that first book, The Inn at Eagle Point.
Now, as I finish The Summer Garden, which will
wrap up this series, I wanted to be sure it’s a worthy finale. What better than a dual love story, plus the birth of a baby? Even as the series ends, there will be so many
new beginnings. And isn’t that the cycle of life?
I hope you’ll enjoy watching Nell find her own
well-deserved happy ending, even as Luke, the youngest of her grandchildren, finds his love with a most unlikely woman.
And for each of you, I wish you strong family ties and
the joy of laughter.
All best,
Sherryl

Maddening Moira was still in his head!
Luke O’Brien had been home from Ireland for a month now. He’d been obsessing over his plans for the pub he wanted to open in Chesapeake Shores, worrying about the likely uproar with his family. He’d gone out a few times with the sophisticated, delectable Kristen Lewis, picking up where they’d left off during a brief rendezvous in Ireland. Truth be told, it was a matter of convenience for both of them, not a meeting of the hearts, but until recently it had been an excellent distraction, if only because it had complications galore that appealed to Luke’s desire for a taste of rebellion.
But then along came Moira Malone
