It is about Mason’s integrity and his abiding love of a family business that will keep a town from going under. It is about Annajanes ability to love and trust someone that she has a few doubts about. Annajane and Mason have just such a chance when Mason’s marriage to his new fiancé is interrupted by his little girl Sophie having a hot appendix and being rushed to the hospital. You see, Annajane and Mason were once married, but they didn’t quite make it. Now Mason is getting married to someone who is most definitely NOT the one he was destined to be with the rest of his life. Annajane is engaged to a musician now, but even though Mason is her ex-husband, she has been invited to his wedding to Celia. One of the main issues this story deals with is the Bayless’s family business Quixie soda, a regional product, and the possibility that the family company will be taken over by a much larger company. There is more to it but I don’t want to ruin the story for you. After the somewhat slightly lackluster release of last year’s “Summer Rental”, this book was just such a pleasant surprise. I was worried that Ms. Andrews would keep on with the notion that those of us who like Southern chick lit would be appeased with another book like “Summer Rental” What she gave us with “Spring Fever” is one of the most delightful, witty, charming stories I have read in ages. The characters are so well defined that you could swear you’ve met them before or at least people just like them. Everyone knows a couple that was just perfect for each other, but too stubborn to realize it themselves. I’m sure everyone has known a back-stabbing SOB like Celia is or a money-obsessed person like Mason’s brother. And this is just one of the things that makes this novel such a delight to read. The descriptions of the area, the factory, and the secondary characters are all richly written and 100% believable.. The dialogue is believable and so is the story. The ease of reading this novel was truly pleasant for me. This will defiantly be a book I will read repeatedly every springtime. Die Geschichte von Annajane und Mason wird nie langweilig. Vor Jahren waren sie verheiratet, doch durch ein Missverständnis trennen sie sich schließlich. Während Mason das Geschäft von seinem Vater übernimmt, arbeitet Annajane weiterhin für Mason. Als Mason heiraten will, ist Annajane ebenfalls eingeladen. Die Hochzeit endet anders als geplant und ein Besucher der Hochzeit landet schließlich im Krankenhaus. Während Annajane ebenfalls wieder neu vergeben ist, zweifelt Mason mittlerweile an seiner Beziehung mit Celia. Schließlich trennen sich Annajane und Shane und Annajane nimmt ihren alten Job wieder an, den sie vorher gekündigt hatte. Annajane und Pauline - die Schwester von Mason und Annajanes beste Freundin - versuchen schließlich herauszufinden, was Celia plant. Mason und Annajane kommen sich langsam wieder näher. Insgesamt ist das Buch ziemlich unterhaltend - man kann öfters lachen -, aber das Buch ist auch zeitweilen traurig und stimmt nachdenklich. Denn ist das Leben nicht wirklich vergänglich? Und manchmal belügt man die Menschen, die man liebt, um sie zu beschützen. Doch was wenn all diese Lügen herauskommen? Wenn plötzlich das Leben Kopf steht? Mary Kay Andrews hat die Gefühle rübergebracht und hat uns einen neuen Weg gezeigt. Sie hat uns in die Geschichte von Annajane, Pauline, Mason und Sophie entführt und selbst als ich die letzte Seite des Buches gelesen hatte, bekam ich nicht genug. Mein Fazit ist: das Buch ist gut geschrieben, fesselt einen und lässt einen selbst nach beenden des Buches nicht los. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall das Buch zu lesen! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"Annajane Hudgens truly believes she is over her ex-husband, Mason Bayless. They've been divorced for four years, she's engaged to a new, terrific guy, and she's ready to leave the small town where she and Mason had so much history. She is so over Mason that she has absolutely no problem attending his wedding to the beautiful, intelligent, delightful Celia. But when fate intervenes and the wedding is called to a halt as the bride is literally walking down the aisle, Annajane begins to realize that maybe she's been given a second chance. Maybe everything happens for a reason. And maybe, just maybe, she wants Mason back. But there are secrets afoot in this small southern town. On the peaceful surface of Hideaway Lake, Annajane discovers that the past is never really gone. Even if there are people determined to keep Annajane from getting what she wants, happiness might be hers for the taking, and the life she once had with Mason in this sleepy lake town might be in her future"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
