My Review
Brooke and her two cousins is back in Sanderling Cove to run her grandmother ’s inn while she and her new husband went for their honeymoon. They were tasked to improve the inn while at the same time, taking some time off their normal schedule to figure out their life direction. They have no idea five grandmothers are plotting to bring their grandchildren back to Sanderling Cove in the hope to get them settle down in the town. It is a great change for Brooke given that she have been taking care of her mother and it is taken toll on her. Brooke rediscover her passion for art and it was art that she found herself attracted to Dylan.
This book focus on friendship, self discovery and family relationship and focus on Brooke. Love how Dylan added some stability in Brooke life and the way she find contentment in her life at the end of the story. Overall it is a good read to me.
