A Summer of Hope

A Summer of Hope: Croc Brothers Romance - Book Three

The sequel to A Summer in Paradise is Noah and Emma's story.

A family adventure romance to have you wishing you were on a Gold Coast beach.

Emma Jarvis has a dilemma - keep dating rock-star handsome Wade or pursue her crush on sexy, silent, probably-married Noah?

Noah Cooper and his Down's Syndrome daughter, Hope, are due for a fresh start. But a car accident propels Emma into their secretive world. Will Noah put his guard down long enough to let love back into his life?

Emma finds, convincing Noah of a police conspiracy is one thing. Avoiding combusting when she's near him is a totally different predicament.

Noah has enough problems without falling for delightful Emma and her lust-inducing cut-off shorts. His wife's abandonment. Proving his father's innocence. And Hope, beginning mainstream school where bullies lurk.

When Noah learns his dead brother's son, Jai is with Emma's family; he must cut contact with Emma or lose what's most precious to him.

But when Jai and Hope go missing, can the adults unite to find the missing children in the Australian bush? Will an old circus elephant be the key to bonding them before it's too late?

A final enthralling, emotional conclusion in a stand-alone story filled with passion and heat.



REVIEWS:

A Summer of Hope

"An exciting romance and entertaining holiday read.

The story is set around paddle-boarding an inshore creek at an idyllic Australian beachside. The plot has complications with three generations of family members, an electric romance that overcomes dramatic obstacles...Elephant Creek again reveals Donna Munro's affection for and understanding of Africa and pet animals.

The triumph of this book is her portrayal of Hope, who has Downs Syndrome, who is Noah's daughter. Munro's story embraces Hope.

The book chronicles happiness and heartaches in a close family, like Home and Away, with endearing characters whose interactions are closely observed and authentic...an exciting romance and entertaining holiday read."- Reviewed by: Martin Knox, Author

"I didn't want the story to end. Can't wait for your next book. If you love a romantic story mixed with adventures, I highly recommend all of Donna's books. You won't be sorry." - Helen James-Doyle

'Set in Currumbin, so that makes it extra special for me, but as usual Donna has romance, intrigue and a bit of sizzle too with lots of twists and turns. If you haven't read The Zanzibar Moon and Kendwa's Secret, read them first and then grab this one.'

This book was previously published as Elephant Creek.
