I'm in the mood for beach reads. This week I'm reading Pamela Kelley's latest. The excerpts are from the E-ARC.
Book Beginnings
"Good news. You're not having a heart attack."
From 56% on my e-reader
"I'm glad you could get out tonight. This should be fun," Natalie said.
Synopsis from Goodreads:
One summer can change everything.
Brooklyn-based Hannah is a bestselling author struggling to write her second book after personal losses. Her older sister, Sara, still lives in Chatham, Cape Cod, where they grew up, and is married with four children. Once a dedicated librarian, Sara dreams of reviving her love affair with literature, but instead, she is stuck with too many family responsibilities and a fizzling marriage.
When Hannah gets the chance to retreat to her aunt's oceanfront house in Chatham for the summer, it seems like just the thing to get her creative juices flowing. And she’ll be able to spend more time with Sara, who is eager to find her way back into the workforce, to do something rewarding and book-related. The pair will spend the summer making friends, rekindling romance― especially Spencer, an old acquaintance from high school-turned very hot grump― and opening themselves up to the magic of books and the beach.
Perfect for fans of Mary Kay Andrews, Susan Mallery and Brenda Novak, The Seaside Sisters will delight and charm you as easily as an ocean breeze.

This sounds like a perfect weekend read. Thanks for mentioning it! :-)
ReplyDeleteSpencer sounds a bit like Luke from Gilmore Girls! ("very hot grump" lol.) This sounds like a fun read, and I love the cover! Here's my Friday post: https://thissideofstoryland.blogspot.com/2024/06/book-beginnings-friday-56-reckless.html

ReplyDeleteI am curious about this one! It looks like fun.
ReplyDeleteNot having a heart attack is always good news, and would certainly draw me into the story.
