Book: A Summer at Sagamore

Author: Lisa M. Prysock

Genre: Historical Christian Romance

Release date: March 14, 2023

Can summer love survive amid mystery and mayhem?

When Abigail Greenwood and her cousins settle in for their annual summer retreat at the stunning and impressive Sagamore Resort in the Adirondacks,  all she wants is to spend as much time as possible plunking out stories on her typewriter. But when her cousins insist she joins them in the tradition of choosing a beau to adore from a distance during their stay, she reluctantly plays along, setting her sights on a mysteriously quiet and aloof guest. What started as harmless fun soon changes as Abby finds herself captivated by debonair—and handsome—Jackson Gable. Who is he, and why does his arrogant amused smile exasperate her so much?

When a series of events causing mayhem and mischief begin to occur at Sagamore, journalist Jackson Gable is determined to get to the bottom of it, since his father is an investor in the resort. Jack has a nose for mysteries, but he may have to use his recently earned law degree and some of his posh family connections to sleuth out the culprit. Are the events connected? Why are they happening? And why can’t he get the beautiful Abby off his mind?

I truly enjoy Christian Historical Romance Books and I also like reading books that are part of a series.  A Summer at Sagamore by Lisa M. 

Prysock is Book 2 in the Romance at the Gilded Age Resorts series. The series is written by Various Authors and I had the pleasure of reading Book 1 and now Book 2 in this series. 

The Setting is 1907 in the Adirondack Mountains. Abigail Greenwood LOVES the Annual Summer Retreat she goes on with her cousins. They have arrived at the Sagamore Resort in the Adirondacks and Abigail is looking forward to getting some stories done on her Typewriter during the Retreat. Abby's cousin eventually encourages her to play their annual game of "Adore the Beau", choosing a guy to adore from a distance. Abby chooses handsome Jackson Gable, a local journalist whose father also owns part of the Resort. Abby soon finds she really wants to get to know Jackson, as even from a distance she is falling for him. Jackson Gable is bewildered by recent happenings at the Resort and he decides he needs to figure out what is going on. He is a journalist so "sleuthing out the story" comes naturally for him, he just needs to "connect the happenings" to find the person or persons responsible for the mischief at the Resort. He also has met Abby and now he is wondering why he can't stop thinking about her. Will Jackson discover who is creating mischief at the Resort? Will there be a romance between Abby and Jackson? 

WOW, the storyline grabbed my attention right away and I kept reading until I was finished!  I LOVE how Abby and her cousins have Summer Traditions. The Era of the book, the early 1900s is also a favorite of mine. Jackson is a GREAT character in the book and I really enjoyed reading how his sleuthing skills. The book is filled with Faith, Mystery, Family, and Romance. I believe the author has done a GREAT job of connecting the characters and the book flows smoothly.  FANTASTIC BOOK!

Behind the scenes at A Summer at Sagamore

When a dear writing friend approached me about writing a contribution for Romance at the Gilded Age Resorts, my heart leapt. The Gilded Age is my favorite time to write. Ask me to write anything from 1870 to 1910, and I’m hooked. I love the way traditions are colliding with progress and changing the world in this era.

 

An exciting time for women, I knew the heroine, Abigail, would be a writer, enthralled with her new, clunky, heavy manual typewriter. Independent, set to inherit her grandmother’s wealth, she would not be looking for romance. I wanted Abby’s grandmother, cousin, and sister to give us plenty of humor and fun along the way. Meanwhile, Abby, would portray a young woman on the brink of writing about her faith, inspired by a few pioneer writers and a previous experience to join the endeavor to pave the way for others to do the same.

 

Along comes our hero, Jackson. Jack has this Clark Gable kind of vibe, only younger, more handsome. He has strong faith, but it’s quiet, stifled by his position in society. Abby brings out the best in him. I loved watching their romance blossom and their trust in God grow amid the mystery of all the happenings at the Sagamore. More themes came out of the book than I expected. I can’t wait to share it with you.
