A STARDANCE SUMMER captures the array of emotions that come with struggling to find yourself, letting go of a dream and starting afresh; and Eternity Springs has a proven track record as the perfect place for healing and new beginnings, especially for those who have lost their way or have completely given up. This is the perfect summer read for any fan of contemporary romance or women's fiction.

Liliana Howe comes from a family of overachievers and has always struggled to measure up. At a crossroads in her life and unable to find support from her family, Lili must decide her own fate and chart her own course, but first she needs a break from life and joining the all-female camping club, the Tornado Alleys for an extended summer vacation is the way to go. But Lili's vacation is not exactly what she expects because of the surprise she finds on vacation: her childhood crush and a chance for a guilt-free summer fling.

Brick Callahan enjoys his life in Eternity Springs, even though he has pretty much given up on relationships and limits his entanglements to three dates max per woman. Having Lili show up at his campground, all grown up and so gorgeous is going to test his restraint and the bro code, but Brick still has the scars from being burned in love and is not interested in going back for seconds.

I enjoyed reading this book a lot and not just for Lili and Brick's romance and everything that came with it. I enjoyed the other characters in the story and their own paths, as well as the many lessons the story gives us. One thing is certain, life is a cycle and people pass through each other's lives for a reason.

This book will resonate with readers and leave them assessing their own lives, as well the connections they have formed with others. The biggest takeaway for me was that we are in charge of our own lives, choices and happiness, and are the only ones who can make the decisions that bring us the best life has to offer.

It was great catching up with characters from previous books and I look forward to what Ms. March has in store for us next.

I hadn't read this series before (but that's not a problem because of the way it's structured) so I didn't know what I treat I had ahead of me! Lili and Brick- star crossed but fated- you know there's going to be a happy ending. The setting is nice; I'd love to visit the Stardance Ranch. I liked the way Lili interacted with her grandmother and her friends. It's breezily written and an easy read. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC- I'm going to look for more from March.

A Stardance Summer by Emily March is a very fun but realistic read. Liliana, known as Lily, is a sensible and hard-working person from Oklahoma. In eighth grade, she wanted Christopher, her brother Derek's friend, to notice her instead of her nemesis Tiffany.

Years later, at age 30, she feels really dissatisfied with her life and has a difficult relationship with her conservative and unsupportive parents. There's also a scandal at her job.

She makes a snap decision to change her life and wants to reinvent herself. Before long, she finds herself joining the Tornado Alleycats, a group of glamorous campers, or "glampers" at the Stardance River Camp in the town of Eternity Springs, Colorado. When she finds out the camp's owner, Brick Calahan, is none other than Christopher himself, she finds she gets more than she bargained for......

I'd like to thank Emily March and a huge thanks to St Martin's Press for the opportunity to review this eARC via NetGalley. I'm especially priveledged to have been invited to participate in the blog tour for this title.

A Stardance Summer is a sweet and throughly enjoyable book about taking chances, living life the best you can reinventing yourself and rekindling old relationships. It is a feel-good novel about finding out who you really are.

This is the first book by Emily March, and also the first Eternity Springs novel I've had the pleasure of reading. Can't wait to read more by her!

This was a super cute story that was more character driven than romance-focused. And that had its advantages and slight disadvantages.

First, I loved the character development of Lili. Watching her become her own person and find what she wants in life was fabulous. Plus, she does it without relying on her relationship with Brick to do that, becoming an independent woman on her own merit.

However, at the same time, this dampens the romance a bit. This was a very slow burn romance which was disappointing for me because I love the "in love with her brother's BFF" trope. I felt like too much of their relationship relied on their shared history and not enough in the present. They have great chemistry and make a fabulous pair but I wanted that to be shown more.

With all that said, I really did love the setting! The Alleycats were a blast to read about and added such fun to the story. This is my first adventure into the Eternity Springs series (it won't be my last!) and I simply adored the town and all the characters within it. Such a strong and fantastic cast!

This story is perfect for fans of small town and/or character driven romances who like sweet over spicy.

I wanted to love this book so much, but really just didn't. The writing is less than polished and the dialogue didn't feel natural. Add this to an extended scene about being made fun of for getting your period on the bus (every girls worst nightmare) and I had to struggle to keep reading. I am not sure I'm a fan of Emily March, even after hearing really terrific things about her.

Ms. March takes us back to Eternity Springs in another remarkable book. I have been a fan since the very first book in this series. Each book features Celeste who guides/mentors our characters through their journey.

In this book Lili has lost her job, her reputation and faith in her family. She decides to leave town to regroup and find her footing again. Lili joins the Tornado Alleycats for a summer getaway. They are group of ladies who travel around in their RVs. She buys a truck and RV and travels to Stardance Ranch, a resort in Eternity Springs, to join the ladies. Turns out the owner is her brother’s best friend, Brick Callahan. He is also her secret crush since childhood. Their first meeting is so much fun.

The romance between Lili and Brick isn’t easy. They both have lots of baggage to overcome. We get to watch the journey to their HEA with tears and laughter. The Callahan family makes an appearance for the 4th of July extravaganza which makes this book a reunion of familiar couples.

This book has everything I look for in a contemporary romance, laughter, tears, friendship and family. The banter between Lili and Brick and the Tornado Alleycats is so perfect. I found myself laughing out loud so many times. There are tears of course, but I closed the book with a sense of contentment. This book has made it to my comfort read shelf. I know I will be re-reading it again.

I highly recommend this book.

I love this series. Each book gets better than the one before it. Eternity Springs is a place I would love to visit. The Tornado Alleycats were a hoot. Everyone needs friends like them. A great storyline, an easy read. I look forward to many more books in this series.

I wasn't sure if I would like this book at first. I was thinking everyone is going to feel sorry for Lilli. She lost her job that she fast tracked to, now she is alone. I thought she chose that life and being alone is where it put her. As I got to know Lilli my ideas changed and I realized she wasn't looking for sympathy she just wanted to make it on her own.
This is how her Stardance Summer started, she joined and all women's group bought a RV and went on a retreat. Holy hotness was not what she was expecting from the camp owner much less him being the one. Her childhood crush, her brothers best friend, and the one who got away. This is a story of finding yourself and creating the life you want.
A must read !!

The stardance summer is a light, feel good read. The characters are very well developed. I found the alleycats highly entertaining. It was an enjoyable read.
This is my first book by Ms Emily March but definitely won't be the last.

“A Stardance Summer” is part of Emily March’s Eternity Springs miniseries and the first book of the series I have read. While I enjoyed Brick and Liliana’s road to romance, there were times when I felt like I walked into a movie when it was half over because of all the characters that I wasn’t familiar with.
Saying that, “A Stardance Summer” is about Brick Callahan and Liliana Howe.

After losing her job and faced with trumped up legal charges, Lili leaves Oklahoma for Colorado to meet up with her neighbor and friend, who is part of a group called Tornado Alleycats, to go camping. Once at the RV park – Stardance Ranch RV Resort – she runs into none other than her childhood crush and brother’s best friend, Mark Christopher, who now goes by the name Brick Callahan.
Brick loves being in Colorado and being near his family – both his biological family and his adoptive family. He was burned by love and has a three-date rule, but being around Lili makes Brick think differently about this rule even when his brain tells him not to.

Emily March gives the reader the needed, and expected, Happily Ever After though “A Stardance Summer” feels more like woman’s fiction with Lili’s journey to finding her true purpose and ultimately love. I wish there had been more scenes with Brick and Lili together!

Overall, I did enjoy my first visit to Eternity Springs and plan to visit again.

Lili Howe comes from a world of high expectations, and privilege, and even though that is how she has been raised, it's never really stuck to her, not something she wants to identify with. But for her parents sake she gave it a shot, got a job with a prestigious CPA Firm, and gave it her all, but somewhere along the line she lost her way, and lost her job to boot. So, now she is doing things her way for a change, she wants to reinvent herself, and thinks that the perfect way to do that is to join the Tornado Alleycats on their trip to Eternity Springs. Everything is falling right into place, that is until a certain sexy teenage crush wanders back into her world.

The moment Brick Callahan discovers Lili amongst some skinny dipping elderly ladies, he can't help but admire the way his kid sisters best friend has grown into quite a beautiful woman... a very tempting woman! But just as the sparks start to fly between these two, someone from Brick's past comes back around with unexpected news, and now he is left with a tough choice... go with an old trusted love or something new and very exciting!

I knew from the synopsis alone, that this was going to be a fun little read, and boy were my instincts spot on! This was my first read from this author, and after devouring this little literary gem, I can say with complete honesty that it won't be my last visit to this series! The story line totally drew me and had me on the edge of my seat the whole way through! The characters had sizzling chemistry and I loved the banter between them, they had me giggling throughout! If you like outdoorsy alpha males, and feisty female characters with indomitable spirit then this book is right up your alley!! Highly recommend this one, it's sure to leave you with a smile!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this title.

A STARDANCE SUMMER #13 in the Eternity Springs series by Emily March. Emily makes me want to live in Eternity Springs...and get my Angel Wings. Brick(Mark) and Lili have known each other since childhood. He was her big brothers best friend and her first crush at nine. They both have their hangups and with the help of Patsy, Celeste and Eternity Springs they work towards a HEA. It was fun toughing base with other Eternity Springs friends... and of course the Callahans...A lot of laughs..a few tears..and loads of fun.

On this occasion no review to be posted as sadly a case of it's me not you--simply as its book 13 in a series I haven't previously read. Definitely tempted to check the series out though as the writing was lovely.

I actually made it to 56% before I called it quits. A woman who has a one night stand, or flirts with men, is neither a slut nor a ho. I was, if not in love with, at least enjoying the read up till both Brick and Lily herself, start referring to her slutty, ho like behavior repeatedly. Even though she didn't actually do anything. I've not read this author before, so I don't know her style or her characters, but it s she elderly? Cause it felt like my southern grandma was channeling through. Totally turned me off and I won't be reading any more by this author.

This is the first book I've read by this author and I enjoyed it a lot! It was a quick read with fun quirky characters and a great story. I loved watching Lili find herself and seeing how everything unfolded between her and Brick.

Lillie has recently lost her job and her reputation. When she is let down by people close to her she decides to "run away". She joins the Tornado Alley Cats, an all female RV group. She ends up in Eternity Springs at an RV site owned by none other than her old schoolgirl crush, Mark, aka Brick.

This is a great summer feel good romance. I loved all the characters in the book. It was fun to re connect with past characters from previous books in the series. This book could be read alone if you hadn't read the previous books. Thank you to net galley for an advanced copy.

Brick and Lili's story. What a wonderful story of pain and growth. This series just keeps getting better and better. hard to put this one down, and will make an interesting summer read. Highly recommend this book, series and author. I just hope Josh gets a story soon.

I love Eternity Springs and couldn't wait to return with Brick and Lili. The journey towards their HEA wasn't easy for Brick, because he wanted to stand by his RULES and since she was his best friends, little sister meant she was off limits. But sometimes your heart knows what it knows and you can't help who you fall in love with. As for Lili, she has loved him since she was 9 years old, but at some point and time she is going to have to face the facts and probably move on.

In this book, we get to see a lot of the past characters as they all gather for July 4th and I always love all of their banter between each other. There is always some matching making going on and you get more of that in A Stardance Summer. This is another must read by Emily March!

ARC received from Netgalley for an honest review.

Eternity Springs is a place of healing. It gives hope and a fresh start to those who have lost their way. Having read a number of books from this series, I am blown away by the sense of nostalgic serenity, Ms. March conveys as she spins a tale that walks the line between hope and hopelessness. A quest of self - discovery and finding courage to start anew makes for a trek that is powerful and true.
