5 "Perfect Ending" Stars
I have not stopped thinking about this story since I finished it. This is one that I wanted to start rereading as soon as I was done. I also wish that I could reread it again for the first time all over again. With Rebecca Hunter's smart and mature writing style, I fell in love with both Henrik and Melanie. Her ability to transport me to a place I've never been made me feel like I was a part of their story and not just living vicariously through them. The way Rebecca wove an intricate storyline that encompassed not just Henrik and Melanie but their parents as well shows her strength as a writer. This was a love story that brings in the idea of fate and meant to be's and gave me everything a good love story should.
Melanie has come to an island near Stockholm after her father died in hopes that she can put together the pieces of her past. After her father left when she was four and was never to be heard from again, she has struggled. Because her father is a famous published poet, Melanie thinks that by writing his biography that maybe she'll learn what made her father leave and why he never wanted to be part of her life. But life on this isolated island wasn't exactly what she thought it would be. Always keeping people at arms length after watching her mother pine for a man that didn't want her, she never expects to meet anyone especially not her father's gorgeous handyman.
Henrik is a bit of a mystery at first but he's her only contact in a foreign country. When he helps her get to the mainland for grocery's and Internet, she finds out that he's more than just a handyman. He was also her father's translator. And since all of her father's journals are in Swedish, she needs his help. But as they spend time together and their attraction deepens, they find that they fit together and have more in common than they ever expected. As they wade their way through years of poems and journal entries, both Melanie and Henrik find answers and revelations that rock their foundations. They also learn about each other. When the summer is over, Henrik and Melanie have to determine where they go next, if they can do it together or if the past is too painful.
I was seriously blown away by this book. There was a quiet intensity to both Melanie and Henrik that pulled me in and had my heart hurting right along with them. While there isn't a whole lot of present outside influence to disrupt their burgeoning romance, the past weaves it's fickle claws into their lives throwing things off balance. As secrets were unburied, I clutched my chest as Henrik and Melanie's lives were thrown off course. But I was also enraptured by their love affair and growing feelings for each other.
Rebecca Hunter is an author that more people need to read. I feel lucky to have found her and can only hope that more people do as well. Her stories have heart and passion, take me to new and exciting places, and always leave a smile on my face.

Fun summer read !
Summary Melanie travels from Massachusetts to a small island off the coast of Stockholm to visit the summer cabin she’s inherited from the Swedish father she barely knew. From the moment she meets her mysterious neighbor, Henrik, sparks fly. But both Melanie and Henrik have to find a way to step out of the shadows of their pasts to discover a future together.
Review Not only is this contemporary romance smart and sexy, but I was also impressed by its emotional depth. Rebecca Hunter does a great job of developing where her characters come from—including an intriguing family secret—and the barriers to true intimacy they have to work though. Hunter’s prose, as well as her unique setting and mix of heat and humor, also make this book a stand out. I can’t wait to read more of this series!
This is a great new work from this author. It's an interesting mix of familiar story arcs (the opening scene with the hot handyman is hilarious, but you sort of know where it has to go eventually) and complicated interpersonal interactions. You really want to know how the various layers of the family histories will unwrap, just as you want to know how they'll eventually end up together.
Like another review mentioned, it's not clear that these two will really last, but they work well together through these pages. It's a great read.
The third book in the Stockholm Diaries, the book was as good as the other two or maybe a tiny bit better. MS Rebecca Hunter has written another wonderful story. I like her description of the Island and the items, i.e. shopping Melanie does there. Melanie also meets new people, including a special, sexy, and handsome native of Sweden, Henrik. The two become close and then lovers. ++Spoiler; it's great they found each other as her Father and his Mother did earlier. PLEASE READ!!! You should definitely enjoy reading the authors romance story. Can hardly wait to read about Alice, next in series.

Rebecca Hunter has succeeded again in capturing Stockholm summers, this time focusing her attention on the archipelago, the group of islands in the Baltic Sea to which Stockholmers love to escape from the city. This time, we focus on American Melanie, who is writing a biography of her father--a famous Swedish poet who has been a mystery to her since he left her life when she as a child--and Henrik, a very handsome Swede who happens to have his own connection to her father and an aversion to relationships.
I really loved how, despite the attraction Melanie and Henrik feel for one another almost from the very beginning of the story, they try to maintain a professional relationship (since he's helping her with translating her father's journals from Swedish to English). But the pull between them is just too much for either to ignore and the island isn't really big enough to justify keeping their distance. Melanie and Henrik's story is intriguing and very sexy--very hot scenes between the two of them and my favourite takes place in the tiny cabin of his boat. I also loved how Melanie was determined to find out why her father left her life when she was so young, even if she knew that she might not like the answers she'd find.
Another winner! So happy to have found another writer writing about Americans finding love in Scandinavia! D
