Praise for Jean Stone's Vineyard novels: “Filled with heart... Perfect for long summer days. For fans of Debbie Macomber or Elin Hilderbrand.” —Booklist on A Vineyard Summer “Ticks off all the boxes as engrossing “cozy” fiction and a can’t-put-it-down late summer read…[with] plenty of local scenery and flavor.” —The Barnstable Patriot on Vineyard Crossing “Lie down on the couch, put a pillow under your head and enjoy the ride.” —The Vineyard Gazette on A Vineyard Summer “Annie Sutton is finally realizing her dream of living on Martha’s Vineyard, when a surprise package is left outside her cottage door…a baby in a basket. The diverse characters, strong setting, and clever mystery surrounding baby Bella brims with holiday cheer readers will relish.” —Library Journal on A Vineyard Christmas “A successful novelist finds herself in the middle of a mystery fit for the plot of one of her books in this holiday story...A Vineyard Christmas is charming and sincere; Stone's fans will not be disappointed by her newest effort.” —Booklist “Stone is expert at leading us through the intricate web of relationships and each character’s evolving story. An added bonus, for those of us who know the Vineyard, is that she always gets the tiny details about Island life right — even down to how long it takes to get from town to town; which libraries are open when … we do care about this group of folks, who are lovingly bonded through both happy and challenging times. We fret for them and celebrate with them as friends as they move through all the situations.” – Martha’s Vineyard Times on A Vineyard Season
