Why Am I Excited to See This Wonderful Romance Series End?

by Chautona Havig · Leave a Comment

Summer in the Spotlight is available and Liz puts the spotlight on another great summer occupation in this interview. via @chautonahavig

Liz Johnson defies my “romance isn’t really my thing” assertion, and Summer in the Spotlight promises to continue the tradition.  But Summer in the Spotlight has more going for it than just a great story with all the feels.  It’s also the end of the series. It’s a series I actually don’t want to end but… I’m excited. Listen in to see why.

Why Am I Excited to See This Wonderful Romance Series End?

The answer is simple. Because it kind of isn’t ending.  While we were chatting, we got a hint of what’s coming after Summer in the Spotlight, and Liz isn’t leaving PEI or her characters. We’re going to head back over to The Red Door Inn and all our friends there.  And all after a satisfying ending to the wonderful Ross brothers’ series.

Look, I’d just as soon have a bunch more Rosses show up and continue with this series, but since we got a peek at what’s coming up, and since Liz admitted that she has more plans for more Prince Edward Island, well… I’m excited to see it end so we can get those things.

And then if she wants to bring it back, I’ll be even more excited.

Okay, so basically, if Liz writes it, I’m excited to read it.  Sometimes someone’s work just resonates with you. Liz Johnson is one of those people for me.

We had a lovely chat about Proverbs, speaking life into people, and how our immersion in the Word comes out in our writing and in our reading.  Basically, it was a wonderful chat and, I found out that she’s got a group trip planned for next year.

Prince Edward Island here I come! Squeeeeeeee!

Liz Johnson Summer in the SpotlightSummer in the Spotlight by Liz Johnson

A hurricane may have destroyed her livelihood on Prince Edward Island, but she’s determined to save her community.

Kelsey Ahern has performed at the Victoria Playhouse on Prince Edward Island every summer since she was seven. But when a hurricane destroys the building, it’s not just her memories that are in jeopardy. Her future as a teacher and drama coach are too. She teams up with Levi Ross, the facilities director at the high school, to produce a benefit show to raise money to rebuild the theater. He has a reputation for being able to fix anything, and Kelsey is sure there’s more to the quiet man than meets the eye.

For his part, Levi has admired Kelsey for years, but he can’t seem to find the words to tell her. When a popular weatherman arrives in town to cover the aftermath of the hurricane and takes an interest in Kelsey and her show, Levi realizes that the time has come to speak up–or lose the heart of the woman he longs for.

Join New York Times bestselling author Liz Johnson for a season of rebuilding, restoration, and romance with this final book in the Prince Edward Island Shores series.

Episode 541: A Chat with Demi Griffin
byChautona Havig

What happens when an author writes an intense epic fantasy and collapses exhausted at the end? She writes a romantasy trilogy, of course! Listen in as Demi Griffin and I chat about her newest series and why you should read it (I can’t wait!)

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

Okay, stop right now and head over and check out the hardback cover! Isn’t it FABULOUS?? EEEP!

This series has everything I think people are looking for, fantasy and romance combined without all the “spicy smut.” Add faith and… WHEEEEEEEEE!

Cerulean Rose by Demi Griffin

EVERY ROSE HAS ITS THORNS. Hidden in a tiny cottage away from the ordinary existence of Cerulean’s citizens, Aural lived a simple life with her father in Sabean Woods. When he is struck by a serious illness, that ordinary life suddenly became extraordinary.

In search of a physician, Aural breaks her promise never to leave the woods. When her path crosses with a Mystic, the manipulative Duchess, and the Prince of Cerulean, Aural realizes something beyond her simple quest to help her dying father has mapped out her journey.

An ancient legend about a brotherly rivalry that resulted in tragedy stirs up the Fates guarding Cerulean. If the Cerulean Rose doesn’t bloom again, the kingdom is destined to perish.

A wild path filled with romance, mystery, and intrigue shapes Aural’s heart in ways she could not have imagined as she gets sucked into the legend. Would it be enough to restore the foundation of true love that established the kingdom of Cerulean hundreds of years ago? Could a simple girl satisfy the Fates, capture a prince’s heart, overcome a king’s prejudice, and save Cerulean’s Rose?

Reposted from @whitecrown_publishing It's time for Reposted from @whitecrown_publishing It's time for another cover reveal!!! And we think this one is just stunning!!

The Promise of a Princess, the third and final book in the Royals of Andelar series by Joy Crain, releases November 2026 and is available for preorder now. 

👑👑👑

Princess Genevieve’s life seems like a dream. She has a loving family, a devoted fiancé, and a future set in stone. But beneath the perfection lies a secret she has guarded for years, one that could shatter everything if it were ever revealed. When an ancient doctrine resurfaces and threatens the very foundation of the monarchy, Genevieve is forced to face a choice that will cost her more than she ever imagined.

DePeaux men love for life. They only ever give their heart away once. Julian knows his father’s oft-quoted words to be true, because his heart belongs to a woman too. A woman who long ago stole his heart, captured beneath the oak tree as they painted and grew up together. But he can never have her. Because another man’s ring lies on her finger.

With time running out and the truth impossible to ignore, Genevieve and Julian are drawn together in ways that challenge everything they have ever believed. In a world bound by tradition and expectation, they must decide if love is worth the risk of losing their future, their duty, and each other.

Preorder your copy today!
