"Refuge at Pine Lake" book tour


On Tour with Prism Book Tours

Refuge at Pine Lake
By Rose Chandler Johnson
Christian Contemporary Romance
Paperback & ebook, 384 Pages
March 6th 2019 by Chanson Books

Robin Lancaster, a twenty-six-year-old former kindergarten teacher, has her summer and her life all figured out. She’s ready to be on her own, writing and illustrating her children’s stories at her family’s beloved lake house. Once there, she intends to rekindle a romance with Caleb Jackson, the area’s top hunting and fishing guide, and bag him for herself.

Complications arise from the start when Robin finds out her mother has rented the lake house to a man they know nothing about.

Matthew McLaughlin, forty-year-old widowed university professor and author from California, shows up at Pine Lake in crisis. A sabbatical might be his only hope to save much more than his career. He needs a place of refuge. Sharing the lake house with a lighthearted young woman and her dog is the last thing on his mind.

Caleb Jackson has his own plans. He’s used to things going his way, but a man staying in Robin’s house presents unforeseen challenges. When paths unavoidably tangle for these three, hearts are on the line.

My Review:
"Refuge at Pine Lake" is the perfect summer read, it is an escape from real life, but yet the characters are so easy to relate to and the story line is so realistic that it is easy to become lost in the story as well.  Robin, Matthew and Caleb all find themselves in the same area for the summer, and all three of their lives intertwine, and emotions rise and hearts become involved.  Pine Lake sounds like a great refuge and escape from everyday life to rejuvenate, and have a more optimistic outlook on life.   
I really enjoyed this book, and am looking forward to what comes next in this series.  Each of the characters became so alive and easy to relate to as well as working their ways into my heart.  Once I started reading this book, I did not want to have to stop reading.  I highly recommend this book!
