One Summer Kindle Edition

Two journalists on a cross-country journey to capture the perfect image of the American spirit spend One Summer bringing their hearts into focus in this passionate novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts.

There’s no summer getaway for Celebrity magazine photographer Bryan Mitchell this year. Instead she’ll be spending three months on the road with renowned photojournalist Shade Colby. Their assignment is a nationwide photo shoot, taking candid snapshots of a summer in America for a beautiful coffee table book. But Bryan’s family fun in the sun moments contrasts with Shade’s portraits revealing the dark side of touristy vacations. Unable to agree on whose pictures best represent their project’s ideal, or anything else, Bryan and Shade discover something extraordinary when they come out from behind their cameras to truly see one another—two people longing for truth and beauty, hoping to share their vision of love.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lovely summer read
Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2013

I truly enjoyed this lighter fare from Nora Roberts. Far less gritty than her In Death J D Robb novels, far less dramatic than her more recent romance novels, One Summer is a novel that reminded me, nostalgically, of a time and of an America that I lived and loved 20 years ago, when I was younger and more idealistic and romantic, just like this novel. I have to admit that many of Nora Roberts' early novels have slightly abbreviated, even abrupt endings that leave me a bit dissatisfied, and some, like this one, are a tad repetitive: "Do I love him/her? No, it's not possible. Do I love him/her? Maybe, possibly, no, it's not possible. Do I love him/her? Oh, Lord. NO! It's not ... " But although this novel is not flawless, I can recommend it to anyone who wants a fun, light, summer book or wants to know or to remember what this country and its people were like and what they valued back when we were all so young.

I can't believe that I found a Nora Roberts book that I hadn't read. This is one that I will tell my sister about; she loves Nora as much as I do.
The characters were totally believable. I love the development of the relationship between them and also the catch-up with a friend from the past.

This was an incredible summer tour through the US as two talented,
strong people discover their own hopes and dreams. Their chemistry and their individual feelings about trust and love create conflict while still pulling them together. More than enjoyable...

3.0 out of 5 stars One Summer by Nora Roberts
Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2012

I always loved Nora Roberts' fictions. Her stories are usually written very well. I had not anticipate her making a mistake like one I have seen in this book. There is a reference about a old woman watering pansies in her garden in Oklahoma. Well, pansies do not glow in summer. They love the cool winter weather. By April, they have to be removed for upcoming spring/summer flowers. Unfortunately, the reference to the pansies were made more than once. It really bothered me. It remind me that this was just only a fiction. I am not sure what the editor was doing not to pick a mistake like this. For the electric version, it can be swapped with "periwinkles," which thrive in a hot summer sun.

I enjoyed the story and have only 1 complaint. The female main character is named Bryan and that made it hard for me to see her as female. Sorry to be old fashion but please don't use a name that's typically used for a man, to portray a woman.

When you are not looking for love, it can find you. These two characters had had a bad experience with love and marriage in their past making them think love wasn't for them. Hiding behind their cameras they saw the world in two different ways. Much to their surprise after their cross country assignment the way of thinking brings them together, yet fear can make people afraid to try. I loved these two characters. You can feel their fears, sadness, joy, and happiness.

1986 Was a very good year. It was nice to read a story where no one got murdered. Nora Roberts must have done a lot of research to be able to make the pictures they took come alive for the reader. I only wish I could have actually seen some of them. Again I read this one in 1986 and enjoyed it again in 2022.

I can't believe that Nora could use only two characters in a book and make it feel like it had a cast of thousands!! I loved the trip through America, bringing to life the normal America, not the celebrity view or Hollywood perspective. A good old fashioned love story. I cared about Shade and Bryan and was touting for them from start to finish! Wonderful summer read! It would make a brilliant film!
