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
idea how it will change her life. The sisters stumble upon
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.
