Inspirational Romance

Bryce Richards visits the Seascape Inn in Maine with his 3 children, Suzie, Jeremy and Lyssie. An attorney who has lost his wife hopes the getaway will bestow its magic on he and his unhappy children. His 9 year old daughter Suzie is plagued with recurring nightmares of drowning and the fear is escalating and becoming too real. Hearing stories of the friendly ghost, Tony Freeport, Bryce is skeptical but prays the Seascape Inn truly is magic and miracles do happen. Bryce is in the market not for love, but for a mother for his disturbed children dealing with the death of their mother. Caline Tate is seeking healing after her devastating divorce from her cheating husband. Caline is now stripped of all confidence and believes herself to be unlovable. She has an extreme desire to be loved and to have her own children, things denied by her ex. Drawn to the inn by a ghostly force, Cally becomes involved with the Richards children and falls in love with them. Tony, along with Hattie, the fiancée whom he became engaged to at Thanksgiving over 50 years prior and who now runs the inn, hope their interventions will heal the children and bring love and a wife to Bryce while fulfilling Cally's dreams as well. Cally is desperate to be the sunshine of her own home and family. Tony's duty is hampered by the fact that Bryce was Cally's ex-husband's divorce attorney. The task not only is to draw the couple together but also to prevent Suzie's dream of drowning from becoming a reality. The magic is, after all, what Seascape Inn is all about. Believe and it can happen. Do not miss this touching and emotional story of loss and insecurity of a man and woman doing the best they can in dealing with the blows they have each sustained in life. Original beliefs in their past lives are not what they thought. My heart went out to Suzie and her horrific nightmares. The friendly ghost sacrifices when he enters Suzie's dreams to keep her safe. BESIDE A DREAMSWEPT SEA renews faith in love. The characters are all fascinating and the story line couldn't be more interesting. BENEATH A DREAMSWEPT SEA will squeeze your heart and stay with you long after you finish the book.

SUMMARY

New love isn't on the agenda for widower Bryce Richards, who comes to the peaceful Seascape Inn with his three children, hoping the ethereal setting will help them recover from the death of their mother. Likewise, fellow inn guest Callie isn't looking for romance either; she's recovering from an emotionally abusive marriage. It will take all the matchmaking skills of innkeeper Hattie Stillman and her ghostly assistant to bring Bryce and Cally together.
