The Seaside Homecoming

Author: Julie Klassen

Series: On Devonshire Shores #3

Publisher: Bethany House

Release Date: December 3, 2024

Rating: 4 out of 5.

The third book in the Devonshire Shores series is a great story of sisterhood and the strong bonds they hold.

Claire Summers has been living in Scotland since becoming estranged from her family. She feels her chances of finding a husband and making a life for herself are slipping further away with each day. One day she sees an ad from someone looking for “a respectable female partner” and wonders if it is an answer to prayers or just another wrong turn she has taken over the years. When she leaves and her family learns she hasn’t been seen with her aunt in a while, her sisters go to find her and hope that even with the time apart their sisterly bond will overcome for their reunion.

The Seaside Homecoming is the perfect read during the holiday season, drama, tension, romance, and even more written right the right moments. I enjoyed the moments between Claire and each character she interacted with throughout the story. There were a few slow moments but overall the story was a quick and enjoyable read. Historical fiction has to be well written in order to not slip away unnoticed with all the options out there to read. This one hit about mid-range for me, it was full of good moments but also a few slow moments making it for a fairly balanced read. I would recommend this book to those that enjoy historical fiction with a touch of romance.

I received a complimentary copy of this title from the publisher.  The views and opinions expressed within are my own.
