    When a fiercely independent young woman returns with her three daughters to her hometown of Camden, Maine, after divorcing her philandering husband, she finds a less-than-hospitable welcome. But she's about to show an entire town what one good woman can do.
    Praise for That Camden Summer

    “A modern fairy tale.”—People 

    “Deft, unpretentious, and down-to-earth, LaVyrle Spencer...never fails to please.”—The Anniston Star

    More Praise for LaVyrle Spencer

    “Superb.”—Los Angeles Times

    “Warm and folksy and loving.”—Kirkus Reviews

    “Leaves the reader breathless.”—New York Daily News

    “[Spencer] delivers the goods.”—Publishers Weekly
    LaVyrle Spencer is a contemporary and historical romance novelist who has written twelve New York Times bestsellers. Whether set in the Old West or in present day suburban Minnesota, a Spencer novel means seeing love in a new light and meeting characters so real it's all you can do not to climb into the pages yourself. Several of Spencer's books have been made into movies (Publishers Weekly called one of her television deals "precedent-setting") and in 1988 she was inducted into the Romance Writers of America Hall of Fame. She lives with her husband, Dan, in North Oaks, Minnesota.
