Celebration at the Grand Hotel

Patricia Howell is happy to indulge in fantasy and escapism, as long as it's between the covers of a good book. She owns the Island Bookstore on White Pine Island and believes that reading is the key to happiness. When her childhood friend Rowan Evans comes back to the island after an absence of eight years, he tempts Patricia to take her nose and her heart out of her beloved books.
Rowan Evans took his passion for online gaming to the highest level of the sport. He left White Pine Island, but it was always on his mind as he used it for the setting in his mega-popular online game. Now that he's sold the rights to Legend of Rowan, what's next? He hopes a stay at the Grand Hotel on his home island for a few months will inspire his next project. Reuniting with his childhood friend and enticing her into a game leads them both on twists and turns, but can they both play the game with all their hearts and win?

Zane Thomas has given up on love. He believes horses are better company as he runs the Grand Hotel's new stable. The last thing he expects to find on White Pine Island, his new home, is a woman who catches his eye. He steers clear of Meghan Crawford, but her sunny personality and brave outlook on life make her hard to ignore.
Meghan Crawford sets her own course. She runs the island's only insurance agency, lives on her sailboat, and believes everyone should take advantage of living in a place dedicated to having fun. When Meghan meets Zane, she decides that fun might come in the form of a romance with the stable manager.
She challenges him to open his heart until he finally realizes that being with Meghan is a risk worth taking. All seems well until his past interferes with their present. Will Zane learn to take a chance on love?
