About the book:
A getaway on a charming island may be just what Alyssa needs---if only she can let go of her past.
When Alyssa Denham, a single career woman, wins a fun getaway for two on Mackinac Island where her grandmother lives, she gives her carefree best friend a call. Together, they tour the old shops and hidden treasures of the quaint island while helping Alyssa's grandmother piece together an heirloom quilt. Their quest gains them entrance into the homes of many longtime residents of the island, parts of the city that are otherwise off limits to tourists.
As the quilt's story takes shape, Alyssa gains amazing insight into her grandmother's life . . . and attracts the attention of the handsome Scott Whitman, an island resident in charge of hotel transportation. Will memories of her past keep Alyssa from letting go? Or will the quest to piece together the heirloom quilt restore Alyssa's fractured heart---and bring healing to her entire family?

My Take: This is another great addition to the quilts of love series. There really wasn't a big mystery to solve but the romance was a sweet one. This was a sweet book and kept my interest in the story about the gathering of the pieces of for the quilt. Although I do not quilt my mother does and I know how much time and skill it takes to make a quilt. I do like the stories that have a little more action than this one had it had enough that kept my attention.
