Greer Hennessy is a struggling movie location scout. Her
last location shoot ended in disaster when a film crew
destroyed property on an avocado grove. And Greer ended up
with the blame.
Now Greer has been given one more chance—a shot at finding
the perfect undiscovered beach town for a big budget movie.
She zeroes in on a sleepy Florida panhandle town. There's
one motel, a marina, a long stretch of pristine beach and an
old fishing pier with a community casino—which will be
perfect for the film's climax—when the bad guys blow it up
in an all-out assault on the townspeople.
Greer slips into town and is ecstatic to find the last
unspoilt patch of the Florida gulf coast. She takes a room
at the only motel in town, and starts working her charm.
However, she finds a formidable obstacle in the town mayor,
Eben Thinadeaux. Eben is a born-again environmentalist who's
seen huge damage done to the town by a huge paper company.
The bay has only recently been re-born, a fishing industry
has sprung up, and Eben has no intention of letting anybody
screw with his town again. The only problem is that he finds
Greer way too attractive for his own good, and knows that
her motivation is in direct conflict with his.
Will true love find a foothold in this small beach town
before it's too late and disaster strikes? Told with Mary
Kay Andrews inimitable wit and charm, the New York
Times bestseller Beach Town is this year's summer
beach read!
