Book:  At Lighthouse Point

Author: Suzanne Woods Fisher

Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance

Release date: May 4, 2021

Blaine Grayson returns to Three Sisters Island with a grand plan–to take Camp Kicking Moose to the next level. Her dream starts to unravel when she discovers Moose Manor’s kitchen has been badly remodeled by her sister, Cam, who doesn’t know how to cook. Added to that blow is the cold shoulder given by her best friend, Artie Lotosky, now a doctor to the unbridged Maine islands.

Suzanne Woods Fisher is one of my favorite authors. I have enjoyed her Amish Fiction books for years. I also love her Christian Fiction books. At Lighthouse Point is Book 3 in the Three Sisters Island series. I really enjoyed Book 1, so I was excited to read Book 3. 

Blaine Grayson has returned home to Three Sisters Island and she is excited about her plan. Her plan is to revamp Camp Kicking Moose, but she is disappointed when those plans come to a halt. Blaine, who is a Chef, discovers the kitchen at Moose Manor was badly remodeled by her own sister, who doesn't even cook. Camp Kicking Moose is owned by their Dad and Blaine had hoped to really take the dining to a new level. Blaine is also dealing with the fact that her best friend, Artie Lotosky, isn't talking to her and she is unsure why. Blaine feels so much is going wrong now that she is back in town, and these situations are just the start of it. She is wondering if she made the right decision coming home. Will Blaine succeed at making her dreams come true at Camp Kicking Moose? Will she reconcile with her best friend? Will Blaine have to Trust God and follow God's plan rather then her own? 

Suzanne Woods Fisher has another GREAT Book!! I got reeled into the storyline from the first chapter and it definitely is a page turner. I enjoyed how Blaine had setbacks, but seemed to look for other options. She could have "thrown in the towel" but she didn't. At Lighthouse Point is the 3rd and final book in the series. I have read Book 1 and Book 3 and will be reading Book 2 soon. They are all great standalone books. At Lighthouse Point is a book about changing disappointment into opportunity. It is about Faith, Family and Friends! GREAT BOOK! Definetly one to put on your Summer Reading List.

10 Curious Facts about Lighthouses

 

 

People love lighthouses. There’s just something special about those sturdy sentinels with their beacons of light, patiently sweeping the water, their mournful and haunting wail of a foghorn. Longfollow’s poem, The Lighthouse, written in 1850, captured the allure so well:

 

And as the evening darkens, lo! how bright,
Through the deep purple of the twilight air,
Beams forth the sudden radiance of its light,
With strange, unearthly splendor in the glare!

 

“Unearthly splendor.” Wow, doesn’t that hit the nail on the head? A lighthouse, to me, represents a spiritual truth: Someone’s watching out for us, looking out for the dangers ahead, and always glad to welcome us home.

 

 

Here are 10 facts about lighthouses that you might not know:

 

  • THE FIRST KNOWN LIGHTHOUSE was Egypt’s Pharos of Alexandria, Egypt, built in the third century B.C. The lighthouse was made from a fire on a platform to warn sailors of the port’s entrance. This lighthouse was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

 

  • THE OLDEST EXISTING LIGHTHOUSE IN THE WORLD is considered to be La Coruna in Spain that dates from ca. 20 B.C. A Roman lighthouse is located on the Cliffs of Dover in the UK that was constructed in 40 A.D.

 

  • THE UNITED STATES IS HOME to more lighthouses than any other country.

 

  • THE FIRST LIGHTHOUSE IN AMERICA was at Boston on Little Brewster Island (1716). The first keeper was George Worthylake who, sadly, was drowned, along with his wife and daughter, when returning to the island in 1718.

 

  • THE TALLEST LIGHTHOUSE is on Cape Hatteras, NC. Built in 1872, it reached 196 feet tall.

 

  • THE FIRST WEST COAST LIGHTHOUSE was built on Alcatraz Island in 1854.

 

  • DAYMARKS are the painted colors and patterns (diamonds, spirals and stripes) on lighthouse towers to distinguish them from each other.

 

  • LIGHTHOUSE KEEPING was one of the first U.S. government jobs available to women, as far back as the 19th century. Most obtained their position when their husband died or became incapacitated.

 

  • THE RANGE OF THE LIGHTHOUSE LIGHT produces a light seen 25 miles at sea.

 

  • ABOUT 700 LIGHTHOUSES are still in active use in the United States.

 

As I wrote the third book in the ‘Three Sisters island’ series, I just had to give that little charred lighthouse its day in the sun. It had patiently played a role in the first two books, waiting for its turn on center stage. Not only did its setting provide a very unexpected “WHAT? How did that happen?” conclusion to the series, it even stole the headline! The undisputed title: At Lighthouse Point.

 

Do you have a favorite lighthouse? If so, please add your picture in the comments below. Don’t forget to include its location.

 

Thanks for reading! Stay well, stay home, and read.
