HerKentucky Whiskey Glass Rating: 🥃🥃🥃🥃

Publisher’s synopsis: Claire has a problem with setting limits. All her life she has taken on every responsibility, assumed every burden, granted every request. Claire wants it all—and in the eyes of her friends, she has it: a devoted husband, four beautiful children, even a successful career as an artist. So when she agrees to chair the committee for Nantucket's social event of the year, she knows she can handle it. Claire can handle anything.

But when planning the gala propels her into the orbit of billionaire Lock Dixon, unexpected sparks begin to fly. Lock insists on working closely with Claire—often over a bottle of wine—and before long she can't ignore the subtle touches and lingering looks. To her surprise, she can't ignore how they make her feel, either. Claire finds the gala, her life, and herself spinning out of control.

A Summer Affair captures the love, loss, and limbo of an illicit romance and unchecked passion as it takes us on a brave and breathless journey into the heart of one modern woman.

HerKentucky Review: Glass sculptor Claire agrees to chair a large charity gala and soon finds herself emerged in a torrid affair with the charity’s director. This novel had some beautiful imagery, but I found it really hard to believe that someone with so little event planning expertise would be picked to chair a gala. It seriously struck me as less believable than the idea that her high school boyfriend grew up to be a famous rock star. Pedantic retired Junior Leaguer analysis aside, this is a fun novel about summer flings.
