Book Description

July 1992
From the time they were eight years old, Kip Stroud and Shelley Ballard spent their summers together on Block Island, swimming, biking, exploring...and growing up. As teenagers, they argued about books, complained about chores and learned from each other a little about the way boys and girls viewed each other. They were best friends—until a tragedy in Shelley’s life tore them apart.

Twelve years later, Kip has had to face his own tragedy. When he returns to the island to heal, he discovers that Shelley is now living there, older and wiser but bearing emotional scars. He is scarred, too—something they can share as they rediscover their friendship. But comfort and compassion aren’t love.

Kip believes he will never love again. Shelley believes she can’t love. Yet one night, their beliefs are shattered, and they realize they have a lot more to learn from each other.

Originally published by Harlequin Books, Safe Harbor was a finalist for Romance Writers of America’s prestigious Rita ® Award.

This review is from: Safe Harbor (Kindle Edition)
This is the second book I have read by Judith Arnold and it is another heartwarming story of family, love and loss. Not only is this story engaging and hard to put down, it carries wonderful inspiration and hope for love in marriage. I am so glad I found this author as her writing is prolific and there are many new adventures to enjoy. Highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love Grows Up . . ., June 27, 2011

This review is from: Safe Harbor (Kindle Edition)
For Kip Stroud and Shelley Ballard, falling in love isn't a single moment. Starting from the summer when they were eight years old and Kip showed Shelley a dead snake, their relationship shifts, stretches and strengthens over two decades.

In a compelling departure, readers first get to experience the foundation of that love. Kip and Shelley have spent their childhood summers on Rhode Island's Block Island as best friends. In the summer when they're 15 they are both changing -- but life changes even faster for Shelley.

And it is 12 more years before they come together again. By then, each has faced tragedies, difficulties and changes. Each has grown up. Can the love of innocence they once shared also grow up? Can they provide a safe harbor for each other's heart?

Judith Arnold's SAFE HARBOR explores the epochs of the growing love between Kip and Shelley, carrying readers along for each stop in the fascinating journey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent work of Arnold., July 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Safe Harbor (Harlequin American Romance, No 405) (Paperback)
What can i say?? Arnold will never stop surprising me. This book is written in a way, that you only find out what the others feeling, after too much time has passed. It bring a smile upon your face, and tears in your eyes. It make your heart swell, and feel everything the heroin is feeling. Recommend it to everyone that land their hands on them.
