Each year Sugarberry Cove, a small town in Alabama, holds a Festival of Lights on the lake in honor of The Lady of the Lake, Lady Laurel. She is believed to give the lake magical powers due to an accident, along with a miracle, that happened in the distant past.
Sadie Way Scott was born and raised in Sugarberry Cove. She loves her small town, but she moved away and has avoided coming home. Due to recent circumstances, involving her mother’s health, Sadie is drawn back home. She is anxious to return because of what happened eight years ago. During the Festival of Lights, she had fallen into the water and hadn’t resurfaced for nearly ten minutes. She had drowned. Then, the magic happened…
With Sadie’s arrival home, the family is faced with the problems they have been avoiding for years. Bitterness between her mother, her sister, her former boyfriend all come to the surface. Will they work out their problems, or will Sadie continue to run from them?
I rated this book 4/5 stars for being an excellent read. The book is laced with southern charm, and the characters are believable and engaging. The plot moved at a steady pace to keep my interest.
This is the third standalone novel from the author, Heather Webber. She is also known for Midnight at the Blackbird Café.
“The light from all those wishes, those wishes so pure of heart that they sparkled like life itself, was used to bring you back to them.” - The Lights of Sugarberry Cove
