Summer's Sweet Promise
(2025)(The fourth book in the Sunsets in Strawberry ... Family, Bakery, and New Beginnings series)
A Story by Molly Cook
Sometimes it takes getting lost out on the ocean for true feelings to surface...
Chloe and Antony's romance is in full bloom, and she is determined to plan a wonderful party for his birthday. She does her best to keep it a surprise, and she enlists Irene and Spencer to help her plan it. In the end, however, an unexpected suggestion turns her plans upside-down.
Spencer's crush on Perry Anderson is making her as tongue-tied and awkward as a teenager, and she's despairing of ever working up the nerve to tell him how she feels about him. She concocts a plan to spend more time with him, but when she meets the beautiful young Maggie who's always hanging on Perry’s arm, she feels sure that any hope of a romance with the older professor is gone for good.
Irene is feeling more content with her life than she has in years -- until an old flame of hers arrives unexpectedly to Strawberry Cove and turns her world upside down.
The friends face new challenges and new joys as summer begins to shift towards fall. As their community grows, so does their laughter and their joy, and their certainty that their little corner of the world is as bright as any place could be.
