The Invisible Husband of Frick Island

Sometimes you just need to read something as light as a souffle, and this book fits the bill. Piper's husband goes missing in a storm, but Piper goes on as if her husband were alive. Gradually the whole island also goes along with Piper and pretends her husband is still alive. Then Anders Coldwell, a journalist, shows up, and latches onto the story...

You know what's going to happen in the end, but the characters are so charming you can't resist following through to the finale.
