The back cover copy about Meet Me at the Starlight intrigued me. Trusting Rachel Hauck as an excellent writer, I decided to give it a read and I highly recommend you do the same.

This laid back split-time novel centers around historical roller rink, The Starlight. In the 1930s section of the novel, Tuesday receives the venue as a gift from her husband. But she can’t fully trust the gesture. Unfortunately he’s as full of shady business ventures as Tuesday is longing for a stable life.

In the 1980’s, supermodel Harlow Hayes trades media scrutiny for quiet solace in the same town as Tuesday’s nephew, A list actor Matt Knight. He’s trying to change his bad boy image by leaping Tuesday save the now-threatened rink.

I loved the setting, the way Hauck transports readers to each era effortlessly, the different but parallel stories and the characters. Tuesday Knight shines through in both eras as a strong compassion filled leader, determined to make a difference no matter the odds. Both Matt and Harlow have healing and growing to do and the circumstances that allow the growth are skillfully delivered by a clever plot.

The feel of the story. The hope Tuesday brings to very page. The deft touch of faith in adversity make this a wonderful read. Highly recommended.

I received a copy of Meet Me at the Starlight from the publisher via NetGalley. The opinions are my own.
