Return to Angel's Bay with Nick Hartley in Barbara
Freethy's 4th book in this series. Nick has come back
home to raise his daughter, who is now living with him
after being with her mom for 12 years. He meets Isabella
Silveira on a rainy night when he rescues her from going
over a cliff and into the ocean with her car. Isabella is
making her way to Angel's Bay to visit her brother and
understand the dreams she is having. There is an instant
attraction between her and Nick, but neither is looking for
a relationship right now. The harder they run from it, the
more attracted they become to each other.
Isabella is seeking to understand the visions she is having
since her brother sent her an old necklace he found in a
box in his basement. It isn't the first time she has had
dreams and visions, but she feels compelled to find the
answer to this one. In the process, she learns a lot about
her family history and about herself.
Nick is at his wit's end with his 15-year-old daughter
Megan and her dislike for him. How can he win her over and
establish a relationship with her when she doesn't even
want to try? As Nick, Isabella and Megan's lives
intertwine, destiny takes over and pulls it all together.
Old characters from the first three books emerge and add to
or finish their own stories. The lives of these new
characters become woven into the fabric that makes up
Angel's Bay. This is a compelling novel with plenty of
romance, compassion and intrigue that will have you wanting
more when the story ends.
Bestselling author Barbara Freethy enchants again in this
emotional and compelling tale of family secrets, abiding
friendships, and heart-touching romance.

realizes he is the man who has haunted her dreams. Nick,
