Romance Romantic
Margaux Sullivan was one of the top fashion designers in
New York City when her husband stole every dime she had and
disappeared on her. She lost her job, her designs,
everything she worked all her life to build. With nowhere
else to go, Margaux returns to her small home town of
Crescent Cove, Connecticut to live by the beach in her
mother's second house.
Crescent Cove is where Margaux spent her summers dreaming
of one day designing beautiful clothes. Now she has to
start all over again from scratch to rebuild what she once
had. The beach inspires Margaux and instead of seeing
things in just black and white, colors start to enter into
the equation. Her life is brightening up and it's thanks
to the presence of the Chief of Police, Nick Prescott and
his nephew Connor.
Nick Prescott has known who his true love was since he was
a kid. He's always loved Margaux but he never spoke up and
professed his feelings to her. She grew up and left for NYC
and he never saw her again. Now she is back and he has his
second chance.
Will Margaux and Nick find true love together or is it too
late for Nick to have his happily ever after? How will
Margaux react when her dreams are reduced to small town
living? Will it be enough for her or will she return to her
old life?
BEACH COLORS is a beautiful story of rebuilding your life
when everything you worked for is taken from you. Margaux
is depressed but never for a second does she wallow in self-
pity. She finds a way to overcome and reinvent herself
even after losing everything. I found BEACH COLORS to be
inspiring in its message that you should never stop trying
to achieve your dreams.
The romance between Nick and Margaux was sweet and I rooted
for them to have their happily ever after. I loved the
small town of Crescent Cove and all the characters added so
much to the story. Nick's nephew Connor was my favorite and
broke my heart with his sadness over losing his family. His
heartache really came through in this story and I even
cried at one point when he had a break through. Overall, BEACH COLORS is an emotional story that tugged at
my heartstrings and deeply moved me. I wish the town of
Crescent Cove was real so I could rediscover myself there
as well.
SUMMARY
While renowned designer Margaux Sullivan was presenting her
highly praised collection during New York City's Fashion
Week, her husband was cleaning out their bank account. A
week after he disappeared, the bank foreclosed on Margaux's
apartment and business. Suddenly broke, betrayed, and humiliated, Margaux has
nowhere else to turn to but home: the small coastal town of
Crescent Cove, Connecticut, where she once knew love, joy,
and family before she put them behind her on the climb to
fame. When she's stopped for speeding by local interim
police chief Nick Prescott, Margaux barely remembers the
"townie" boy who worshipped her from afar every summer. But
Nick is all grown up now, a college professor who gave up
his career to care for his orphaned nephew, Connor. Though
still vulnerable, Margaux is soon rediscovering the beauty
of the shore through young Connor's eyes . . . and, thanks
to Nick, finding a forgotten place in her heart that wants
to love again. But as she continues to work on a bold new line that will
get her back into the game, Margaux realizes that soon she
will have to make the most important, most difficult
decision of her life. . . .
