The Bake Shop at Crystal Bay


Book Description

Does he deserve a second chance, or will giving him one be her worst mistake? Jonah Gray came to Crystal Bay looking for a fresh start, which is a pretty tall order, since he’s also fresh out of prison. Now on the hunt for a job, he discovers that employers aren’t exactly willing to take a chance on an ex-convict, especially one who refuses to apologize for what he’s done. Fortunately for Jonah, there’s a new business owner in town, and she’s desperate for another pair of hands—desperate enough that she doesn’t care if those hands used to have cuffs on them. But as Sadie Wild soon discovers, there’s more to Jonah than meets the eye, and what begins as a professional relationship threatens to become something a little more exciting. Her friends think she’s crazy, her investor is convinced she’s lost her mind… And eventually, Sadie has to ask herself… are they right? Lose yourself in the sun-drenched days and bonfire nights of stunning Crystal Bay, and fall in love with the people who live there as they navigate life’s celebrations and challenges. This clean, romantic women’s fiction series is ideal for readers of all ages. Author’s Note: This is a continuing series that follows the lives and loves of the residents of Crystal Bay and is best read in order.




The Cottage at Crystal Bay


Book Description

From the outside, she has it all. But appearances can be deceiving... After being mercilessly teased as a child, Sadie Wild was determined to make something of herself. And so far, she’s succeeded. Great job? Check. Active social life? Double check. Fulfilling hobby? Make that a triple. Too bad those pesky voices in the back of her head are always with her, whispering that she’ll never be quite enough. So when she manages to snag Doctor Clark Whitworth, chief of neurosurgery—and the object of many women’s affections—she can scarcely believe her good luck. But as Sadie has long known, all that glitters is not gold, and the good doctor might not be all he’s cracked up to be. But the man who just moved in next door? Well, that’s a different story altogether… Lose yourself in the sun-drenched days and bonfire nights of stunning Crystal Bay, and fall in love with the people who live there as they navigate life’s celebrations and challenges. This clean, romantic women’s fiction series is ideal for readers of all ages. Author’s Note: This is a continuing series that follows the lives and loves of the residents of Crystal Bay and is best read in order.
