Suzanne Fisher and Free Books!

As his three young adult daughters grow increasingly estranged, Paul Grayson knows he has to do something bold to keep the family together…but when he buys a small bankrupt island in Maine, his girls are sure he’s lost his mind.

Before we chat with today's author, I want to announce that the winner of the free copy of Moments We Forget, by Beth Vogt, is:

Congratulations! I'll get your book right out to you. I encourage readers to keep commenting and/or subscribe at right (above my list of books) in order to learn about new releases! U.S. subscribers are entered in the drawings a second time when they comment.

And now let's revisit novelist Suzanne Fisher, author of contemporary fiction ("More specifically…a 'Calgon, take me away' genre, if there is such a thing"), On a Summer Tide, Book 1 in the Three Sisters Island series (Revell, April 2019).

Carol award winner Suzanne Woods Fisher writes stories that take you to places you’ve never visited—one with characters that seem like old friends. But most of all, her books give you something to think about long after you’ve finished reading it.

With over one million copies of her books sold worldwide, Suzanne is the best-selling author of more than thirty books, ranging from non-fiction books, to children’s books, to novels.

She lives with her very big family in northern California.

Please tell us one random thing we might not know about you.

One of the joys in my life is being involved with puppy raising and breeder keeping for Guide Dogs for the Blind. You just can’t take yourself too seriously when a puppy is tearing through the house with someone’s underwear in its mouth.

What a wonderful experience that must be (underwear and all). And what a fulfilling endeavor! 

Please tell us a bit more about the plot of On a Summer Tide.

Camden Grayson loves her challenging career, but the rest of her life could use some improvement. "Moving on" is Cam's mantra. But there's a difference, her two sisters insist, between one who moves on . . . and one who keeps moving.

Cam's full-throttle life skids to a stop when her father buys a remote island off the coast of Maine. Paul Grayson has a dream to breathe new life into the island--a dream that includes reuniting his estranged daughters. Certain Dad has lost his mind, the three sisters rush to the island.

To Cam's surprise, the slow pace of island life appeals to her, along with the locals--and one in particular.

Seth Walker, the scruffy island schoolteacher, harbors more than a few surprises.

I love the premise of this series. 

What is it about Camden Grayson that will make your readers care about her?

Camden Grayson can’t be stuffed into a box. She’s bright, bold, ambitious, overly optimistic…and clueless when it comes to personal relationships. Her flaws—and there are many—make her thoroughly likable!

Let’s say someone wrote a novel based on your life. What would the title be?

Detective Mom. I just have a strange radar when it comes to people and trouble. Drives my kids crazy. As a mother of four, I consider it a gift. ;)

What is the last novel you read that you would recommend?

Just finished Laura Frantz’s A Moonbow Night (Revell). She has such a rich imagination, and wonderful grasp of pre-Revolutionary Colonial America. And wow, that girl knows how to create a romantic male lead!

What are you working on now?

Just opened a new document to start book 2 in the Three Sisters Island series. Each of the sisters will take a turn as the main character, so next up is Maddie, a newly certified Marriage and Family Therapist (who has never been married nor had children).

I imagine there are more therapists out there in that situation than we would hope, lol. 

Where else can readers find you online?

Well! I’m so glad you asked. I love connecting with readers. I work in a cramped laundry room with two big yellow dogs at my feet. Hearing from readers is like fresh air blowing through this tiny room!

Finally, what question would you like to ask my readers?

What was the first book you remember reading that carried you to another time or place? For me, it was Hitty: Her First One Hundred Years, a story written on a little island in Maine. Of all places!
