Book Description

Series: An Angel Island Novel | Publication Date: April 6, 2010

The New York Times bestselling authors present a new series set on an island a stone's skip away from Cape Light...

Welcome to Angel Island, not far from the shores of Cape Light. It's said to harbor angels that help guide the lost, that sometimes lead them right back to where they began...

Liza Martin arrives on Angel Island to sell the inn she and her brother inherited from their aunt, so she can bolt back to her busy life in Boston. But back home awaits a broken marriage and an unstable career. The more time she spends on Angel Island, and with every local she meets, the more she finds herself enjoying the tranquility of the place. Her new friends don't want to see her sell the inn to developers who will ruin the island's charm. There is much for her to resolve before her departure- and it is going to take a band of angels to mend her broken wings and redirect her soul.

With The Inn on Angel Island comes a new series from Thomas Kinkade and Katherine Spencer. Some of the characters from Cape Light are tied in for a smooth transition to begin this new series. The story tells of what happens when a brother and sister inherit an old inn where they had spent their childhood summers. Beautifully written with such great descriptions you can feel the surf on our skin. Memories are held dear.....and lives are changed. This is highly recommended--a touching addition to your library.

The book is the first of a series, I hope. I found it interesting the way the author connected the Cape Light series, some of the characters and locations, with this new book. The Inn at Angel Island is a great beginning for a new series of books. The characters and actions of the people involved make for a very enjoyable 'sit by the fire on a windy, wet evening' type of story. The problems divorces bring are intertwined with the problems the children are encountering when the parents separate is well described and dealt with. Inheriting a large gift, an inn, brought a needed change in a stressed life of the heroin. I'm looking forward to the continuation of the series.

I have read all of the books in the Cape Light series and was delighted to find a new book coming out by the same authors. I enjoyed this story and liked the fact that Cape Light and some characters were also mentioned. The story moved quickly and I read it in record time. I liked the descriptions of the Inn and the island. I am looking forward to the next book and hope it comes out soon.
