MY REVIEW:

“Hook, Line & Sinker” was a short but sweet romantic novella set in Deep Haven, home of Susan May Warren’s popular Deep Haven series. It is a story of broken hearts, misunderstandings, and unfortunately, spiritual competition – even though one of the parties did not realize that there was a competition.

Although brief, “Hook, Line & Sinker” not only brought resolution to a broken relationship but managed to pack a major spiritual punch with its lesson on working together toward the same goal.

I am constantly amazed at the depth of Warren’s skill. Whether a comedy, a drama, a suspense, or a romance and whether long, short, or in-between, Susan always leaves me with something to ponder. Not every author can do that.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

The annual Deep Haven fishing contest draws professional and amateur anglers from across the country, but this year, Ross Springer is determined to win the top cash prize. In fact, he has no choice. It’s his last chance to leave a lasting legacy at Bethel College. He just never imagined his fundraising scheme would hook Abigail Cushman, the grad student who reminds him of all they’d had—and lost—every time she glances his way.

Abigail Cushman may not know the difference between a bass and a trout, but how hard can it be to catch a fish? She’s a quick learner, and she’s certain her smarts can net her a win over Ross Springer, the handsome charmer she’s tried to forget since grief tore them apart.

In the ultimate showdown between brains and heart, will Ross and Abby reel in more than they bargained for?
