Misty Harbor Inn sounds like an enchanting place to visit, but it hasn't always been that way. Caroline Marris, along with her two sisters Gracie Gold and Sam Carter, are in Nantucket for a girls' get-away. The three sisters haven't been together for this long in a very long time. They came here as children on vacations with their parents over 50 years ago. It was always their mother's dream to own the Misty Harbor Inn and run it as a bed-and-breakfast. When the sisters find the inn and its gardens in much disrepair and up for sale, they consider pooling their inheritance from their mom and purchasing it. Their personalities are so different, will all three sisters be on board with the plan? How bad is the condition of the Inn? Will it be more than they can tackle? The legends about its former inhabitants are enough for Caroline, the dreamer in the bunch, but are they enough to entice level-headed, pessimistic Gracie?
SEASIDE HARMONY is the first effort of a group of writers whose pen name for this series is Evangeline Kelley. This is a beautiful story about three very different women in their retirement years coming together with different personalities and backgrounds and fulfilling a dream of their mother's. Each main character is strong and brings her own temperament to the story, conveying conflict and resolution in abundance. The supporting characters are important in keeping the plot flowing and in understanding what drives each woman. The four writers known as Evangeline Kelley, who collaborated their time and talents to create this wonderful story and series, have done a marvelous job of painting an illustrative picture with words. The only thing that could make this book any better would be to add the delicious-sounding recipes Sam prepares for her family, friends and Misty Harbour Inn guests. I look forward to more stories about Nantucket Dreams. SEASIDE HARMONY is an inspirational novel you do not want to miss!
Three sisters, a charming inn, hints of mystery and romance,
and a gorgeous seaside setting. Summer reading at its
finest! When Caroline Marris joins her sisters, Gracie Gold
and Sam Carter for a Nantucket Island getaway, she has no

Misty Harbor Inn, the place their late mother loved so much,
and Caroline talks her sisters into buying the beautiful but
dilapidated inn.
But can free-spirited Caroline stay focused enough to make
opening the inn a reality? Hand-drawn old postcards draw the
sisters into the mystery of Hannah Montague, the young widow
of the original owner. Can the sisters uncover the fate of
this woman who disappeared in 1880? As Caroline and her
sisters work together to make their mom's dream a reality,
they bond in ways they never expected.
Readers will delight in the inviting setting and be
enthralled by the adventures of these sisters who reunite to
bring their mother's Nantucket Dreams to life.
