About Me

Holly Jacobs leads a life full of romance and adventure. From skydiving to jet-setting around Europe, from snorkeling in coral reefs to writing while wearing beautiful silk peignoir sets and popping chocolate bonbons, Holly Jacobs leads a life that is the epitome of romance. Well, my fictional life sounds more interesting, but not better than my real life.

Really, I'm the happily married mother of four and an author. I live in Erie, PA and frequenly use it as a setting for my books. I currently write for Harlequin Superromance, Harlequin American Romance and Avalon Books. I love meeting romance readers and fellow authors. I belong to Romance Writers of America, NEORWA,PASIC and Novelists, Inc.

Can summer magic keep the shadows at bay?
As childrenâ€¦
During their familiesâ€™ summer vacations, Carolyn Kendal and Stephan Foster were inseparableâ€”running in the hot sand, chasing shadows and building a friendship that would last a lifetime.
As teenagersâ€¦
Their friendship turned serious. Carolyn and Stephan found themselves exploring the intensity of first loveâ€”even if it was only for the summer.
And as adultsâ€¦
Carolynâ€™s daughter lies in a hospital bed fighting for her life. Suddenly Stephan is there beside her, offering support, strengthâ€”and enough love to last a lifetime of summers. Because when theyâ€™re together, shadows donâ€™t stand a chanceâ€¦do they?
