Reviews and Other Information:
"M. Jean Pike's SHADOW LAKE is a true gem... It's a true romance, but delves into the deeper issues of family, divorce, betrayal, loss and suicide. Pike's writing has a magical way of drawing the reader in and holding them there until the final page is turned. The skillful plotting, lush descriptions, and charming cast of characters are enchanting. When turning that last page, readers will be left with wonderful sense of satisfaction and will eagerly look forward to the next in the series."
Working Girl Reviews
"...a story about letting go of the past and moving on with life, leaves the reader with a keen awareness of how one person's actions can influence another's life - either positively or negatively. Of course, the good feeling that comes when love wins against tremendous odds slips in and makes a rainy day turn bright and shiny."
Long & Short Reviews
"This book has an author who is new to me - M. Jean Pike. I loved her writing style and the ability she has to keep this reader mesmerized. The fact that Emma was fragile and emotionally struggled did not make her a weak character. Likewise, the rough and gruff Shane was vulnerable in his own right. The supporting cast members were dynamic, vibrant people who greatly added to the enjoyment of the storyline. Even the unpopular ex-wife had a pivotal role. This great work has such an interesting story that I believe everyone would enjoy it. I highly recommend it to anyone. It is a beautiful love story without blatant sexual activity. I highly offer this to you as one book even younger people would enjoy. It is a great book which who's storyline will remain even after the great ending."
