| Echoes | I'm a big Maeve Binchy fan. All of her books are good-I can't think of one that I could recommend over the others! Two thumbs up--excellent contemporary summer reading. | Maeve Binchy | Romance(Family Saga/Contemporary) |
| Empty House, The | If you enjoyed reading The Blue Castle, I would strongly recommend reading this. It is somewhat similar to The Blue Castle, but the woman is divorced with a domineering mother and mother-in-law, then stumbles across this empty house and, of course, romance. | Rosamunde Pilcher | Romance(Family Saga/Contemporary) |

| Gone With the Wind | BeatriceS: This historical romance set during the Civil War is an unforgettable book with an amazing cast of characters.
