My Review
Delilah Miller is a New York City ER nurse and on her way to being totally burned out. When she gets a call from her domineering mother, she contemplates her mother’s sudden offer. Her mother wants to open a bed & breakfast in Atlantic City. The inn needs quite a bit of work, but her mother is sure they can make a success of it. Delilah isn’t as sure, but she doesn’t want to let her mother do this on her own.
Delilah’s daughter and grandmother join them in Atlantic City. Delilah quickly learns that four generations of Miller women can be quite stressful. To add to the mix, Delilah’s mother hires contractor Trevor Ellis, who just happens to be a former boyfriend of Delilah’s. Can they rekindle the romance from their past?
This is the first book in the series and it’s off to a wonderful start. The characters are well-developed and feel as if they can be your next door neighbor. The women have realistic problems to deal with, not to mention banging heads with each other.
It’s a short story, but filled with much emotion, turmoil and drama. It’s a poignant, touching story that already has me addicted. I’m looking forward to reading the next entry into this series.
