The Heart of Baker Bay by Danielle Jacks – Review by Amy Brennan

The Heart of Baker Bay by Danielle Jacks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was the first book I have read by author Danielle Jacks. I have been rather partial to a few different authors, and it isn’t often that I give another a try, and I am so very happy that I took the chance on her. I’ll admit, I had a lot on my plate when I started reading about Adam and Jody’s love story, what with my daughters 8th birthday, and best friend’s wedding being on the same day, and the travel associated with such, luckily, this book pulled me in. I sat in the hotels Jacuzzi tub and read more than half of this adventure in Baker Bay, though I did look like a prune afterwards, it was worth it!

I fully relate to Jody, as her life reminds me of how mine was not long ago, just a mess, and trying to find my own way. I found it to be easy to slip into the setting of Clover Bay, it felt like a home away from home, with the small village feel and closeness of all the folks you’re introduced to. All in all, I found this love story to give me goosebumps, feel the loss that the main characters go through, or have gone through, and the joy of the friendships and love these two share, for each other, and those in the inner circle. Thank you, Danielle Jacks, for a reason to escape during a hectic weekend. I’ll be coming back for more!
