 My Thoughts:
It's summertime and we've arrived on Mackinac Island in Michigan, during the gilded age.  Elena's family has lost their wealth and her mother is determined to get her married to a wealthy man. As I was reading this all I kept thinking of when Elena's mother came on the scene was Harriet Oleson from Little House on the Prairie, meddlesome, nosey, and bossy. Elena, or Lanie, as her father calls her just wants to draw and enjoy God's creation. 
Elena's mother wants her to meet and marry Chester Darrington, not only is he the most eligible bachelor, he will ease their financial troubles.
When Elena meets Chase, he is not at all what he has been portrayed as. He enjoys the night sky, and wants to invent things.
When Elena rode her bike to the lighthouse I felt like I was out of breath with her. I could hear the waves from the water.
This was one of the best books I've read all year! It will make my top for the year! It is a must read!
