This uplifting series is full of fun, friendship and food as well as real-life issues. It’s not sad or angsty - we get enough of that in real life. Everything is presented in a hopeful way and there’s always a happy ending that will leave you smiling.
This set consists of books 1 &2 in the Lobster Bay Series:
Saving Sandcastles:A feel-good beach read about trust and friendship set in a quaint seaside town on the coast of Maine.
***A USA Today Bestseller***
Claire Turner finally has everything she wants. A successful business, a small bungalow near the beach, and the camaraderie of her two best friends. She’s successful and independent—something she would never have thought possible before her husband’s midlife crisis and their subsequent divorce.
When a rival business opens across the street, Claire worries that she could lose everything she’s worked for. Her entire sense of self-worth is tied up in her bakery and café, Sandcastles, and she suddenly finds herself taking desperate measures to make sure she doesn’t lose business to the newcomer. Surprise! The business is owned by the guy Claire had a crush on as a teenager. Now he's a grown man and there's still an attraction, if only he wasn't running a rival business. Is Claire overreacting? Her friends think it’s possible, but will they be able to talk her off the ledge before she does something drastic?
Jane's beloved mother, Addie, has dementia, and it's getting worse. Jane has her hands full trying to run the family Inn and keep Addie safe. When Addie wanders away from the Inn, Jane faces the hardest decision of her life.
And then there's Maxi. On the surface it appears as if she has an idyllic marriage, but does she really? Now that she and James are empty-nesters, things aren't the same and Maxi worries that James may not be interested in staying married. But Maxi has dreams of her own. Dreams that she had to set aside while she was caring for her husband and children. Now that she has an empty nest, will she be able to find the courage to turn those dreams into reality?
Changing Tides
A sweet romance, a life-changing decision, and a dog.
Things are changing for Jane Miller. Just as her friend Claire gets on her feet again from a near-catastrophe with her bakery, Jane faces challenges with the beachfront bed-and-breakfast her family has owned for generations. Her mother is no longer able to run things and Jane finds herself in charge.
It’s a big change, especially since Jane expected to be retired by now, but she’s promised her mother she will carry on the family legacy. Too bad she doesn’t know very much about running an Inn.
But luck is on her side when she comes across a new furry friend, Cooper, to help her navigate the challenge. It doesn’t hurt that Cooper’s new owner is easy on the eyes--even though Jane vowed she’d never look again.
Naturally she also has Claire and Maxi to lean on. Claire is happy with her new bakery and new beau, but Maxi is facing some changes of her own. Will Maxi find the strength to finally pursue her passion for art even while her marriage may be in trouble?
Pull up a beach chair and dig your toes in the sand as life continues in Lobster Bay and find out how these three friends navigate the changes in their lives.
