Jenna Fossey's life is about to change. An unexpected inheritance and the chance to meet relatives she never knew existed has her heading to the charming little town of Magnolia Harbor. But as soon as she arrives, long-buried family secrets lead to even more questions, and the only person who can help her find the answers is her sexy-as-sin sailing instructor.

Nothing makes Jude St. Pierre feel more alive than racing on the open sea - at least, not until Jenna comes strolling down his dock asking for sailing lessons. But it feels wrong to be attracted to her - especially when he learns why she came to town. Jude knows she deserves the truth but can he help her discover it without losing her and the family he's come to think of as his own?

Includes the bonus story "A Wedding on Lavender Hill" by Annie Rains!
When an event planner is asked to create the perfect wedding in just three days, she must turn to the last person she wants to ask for help - the infuriating owner of the house on the hilltop.

 

An intriguing story! With the kick off of a sweet romantic series, we head down south to a coastal town filled with locals and their way of life. There’s a nice tutorial of sailing throughout the story as the characters bond on the water and set out to find the answers she’s come looking for about her father. There’s a good set up for future books in the series by the time the story ends. Enjoyed it!

When Jenna Fossey discovers unknown details about the father she never knew, she travels to Magnolia Harbor, South Carolina to learn more about he man who died before she was born. An inheritance from a grandfather she didn’t know about led to her discovery of a branch of family she didn’t know existed. Alone now that her mother recently passed, she is hungry for a connection with more family … but are they interested in meeting her?

Jude St. Pierre is not expecting the beauty who approaches him about sailing lessons, but he decides to humor her with a couple of jaunts out onto the water to see what she’s doing in town, and if it has anything to do with the suspicious timing just as he’s trying to get some of the old family homesteads declared historical and rescued from destruction. He’s hesitant to trust her, but when he learns the secret of why she’s truly there, he hopes she will find the answers she’s hoping for before too much heartbreak can hit her.
