I'm hoping to read this one soon.  It looks good.

First Chapter

Beatrice Rushton-Pike got married too young.  She mused over this thought as she ran a fingertip along the marble bar in the den.  It was dust free, and she smiled to herself, grateful for the cleaning crew that'd come through the previous day and scrubbed the house from top to bottom.

From 56% on my e-reader...

The inn was an elderly relic of yesteryear, standing vigil against the beach and glinting beneath the warm winter sun.

Synopsis from Goodreads:

Beatrice is going back home to Coral Island after decades away.

She’s starting her life over after her husband broke the news of his affair moments before their anniversary party and vow renewal.

His revelation derails her. Her children have left home and she’d always imagined she and her husband would travel and grow old together. But now he’s gone and she’s unsure of where her life is headed.

With nowhere left to turn, she goes home to Coral Island to visit her estranged father. She stays in an old beach cottage that was her family’s when she was a baby and finds a hidden roll of fifty-year-old undeveloped film. Who put it there and why?

Will she find answers & purpose on the island, rekindling old friendships and rediscovering a long-lost love? Or will she be driven back to the city and her failed marriage?
