About the book:   A Grand Design
 
A getaway on a charming island may be just what Alyssa needs—if only she can let go of her past.

When Alyssa Denham, a single career woman, wins a fun getaway for two on Mackinac Island where her grandmother lives, she gives her carefree best friend a call. Together, they tour the old shops and hidden treasures of the quaint island while helping Alyssa’s grandmother piece together an heirloom quilt. Their quest gains them entrance into the homes of many longtime residents of the island, parts of the city that are otherwise off limits to tourists.

As the quilt’s story takes shape, Alyssa gains amazing insight into her grandmother’s life . . . and attracts the attention of the handsome Scott Whitman, an island resident in charge of hotel transportation. Will memories of her past keep Alyssa from letting go? Or will the quest to piece together the heirloom quilt restore Alyssa’s fractured heart—and bring healing to her entire family?

My thoughts:  I loved this book just as I have loved all of the previous Quilts of Love series.  I fell in love with Alyssa and her grandmother(schemer that she is) and really enjoyed watched her come to love her island again.  The growing attraction between her and Scott can only be allowed after she comes to terms with the past that haunts her.  The past that suddenly has arrived again in her present.  Can Scott banish the past and find love with Alyssa?  Guess you’ll just have to read and see.  Trust me when I say you won’t want to put the book down!  I can’t recommend A Grand Design enough.
