About book Beach House Memories (2012)

Mary Alice Monroe's follow up to The Beach House takes readers back to Olivia's younger days and gives the heartbreaking romance between Olivia and the true love of her life, Russell Bennett. After getting bits of their tale in the first installment, I had to get the details. Torn between duty and her hearts desire, this journey is very emotional, and at times the despair is palpable. Love, heartache, loss, friendship, courage, and Olivia's passion to help preserve the loggerhead turtles all make this an absorbing read. I loved the setting! I wish I had realized that this was a prequel to another book. I probably should have read that one first. It was hard for me to read some of the social constraints put onto Lovie. As a modern woman and feminist, it's difficult to understand how much a man and social standing defined a woman/mother not all that long ago. I almost gave this a three star because I felt the story got bogged down with all the turtle talk. I think Lovie's passion for turtles is admirable, but I only skimmed much of the turtle description. Lovie and Russell's love story was believable, but I wanted things to turn out differently.

I don't usually read chick-lit, preferring a meatier read. But this was an okay beach read.
