Probably 3 1/2 stars, not my favorite in the Blossom Street series. Susannah comes back to her birthplace, Colville, Washington to check on her mother, following the death of her father. Her mother is not doing well and is moved into assisted living. Susannah appears to be going through a mid-life crisis. At the age of 50, she has decided it's necessary to lookup her old boyfriend, Jake. He had mysteriously stopped writing her at the age of 17 while she spent a year in France. She is also happily married for 25 years, but getting "bored" with her husband. I liked most of the story and enjoyed the suspense at the end, as well as the surprise ending that I did not guess. My problem was with not liking the character's personalities, whiney mom, snotty kid, badboy boyfriend, etc.
