Firefly Cove | January Book Club

By: Davis Bunn

FIREFLY COVE

We've rung in the New Year, and I stayed up until midnight "just for fun." Last week I was up waaaay past the clock striking twelve but it was because there were so many things to be done; pies and cookies to bake, gifts to be wrapped, and last minute footed pajamas to be found and rush ordered...And between these weeks? There were books to read! Glorious, lose yourself in the story, make the world go away, introduce me to new and wonderful character, books!

Among my favorites, and the one I chose for Delilah's January Book Club, is Firefly Cove by Davis Bunn. In it, we go back to Miramar Bay, the setting of Bunn's previous novel (If you haven't read it, pick up BOTH books!) and we get to know Lucius Quarterfield. ??? Lucius, you see, was born dying. The poor babe wasn't expected to make it long because of his "bad ticker." Perhaps it was because he knew he had to cram a whole lifetime in whatever time he had, but Lucius was a determined kid, who became a focused teen, who turned into a successful entrepreneur with 11 car-dealerships to his name at the ripe "old" age of 28...Alas, it seems as though the end really IS in sight and however many minutes, days, weeks or whatever Lucius has left, he's determined to spend it near the only person who has ever really captivated his weak, irregular, imperfect heart; Jessica.

"A novel rich with rediscovery... Readers will be particularly swept away." ~ Publishers Weekly.

This book is one that will draw you in and have you rooting for love no matter how cynical you've become. It's about first, second, and last chances. It's about hanging on and letting go.Pick up Firefly Cove by Davis Bunn at AMAZON , and while you're there, buy Miramar Bay too!Happy New Year, my book loving friends. I hope 2018 is filled book after beautiful book. Start it off with Firefly Cove!
