Book Description

Just off the coast of Washington state, a visit to beautiful Whisling Island will change you. Its residents will give you reasons to laugh, cry, and rejoice. Bess Wilder's entire life changes with one sentence: "I'm so sorry, Bess." Her husband, Jon, has betrayed her, and she isn't sure what to do or feel. Her entire life was dedicated to Jon and her children. Everything is wrong and life feels like it will never be right. So what can she do? Perfect Olivia Birmingham is keeping a huge secret. Her marriage has been a sham for years. But as long as no one knows the truth, Olivia figures she can deal with the loneliness. It's the shame that she wouldn't be able to stand. But when the truth comes out at the worst time and place, Olivia has to move on, whether she likes it or not. Deb Sterling, Bess's best friend, is there to pick up the pieces as Bess's entire world falls apart. While Deb tries to be strong for Bess, she reels from the betrayal in private. Especially because Deb's own marriage isn't in the most stable of places. Her husband has been temporarily living in London, thousands of miles from Deb and their home on Whisling Island. Deb feels the miles pulling them apart and is scared she'll suffer the same fate as Bess if things don't change. Owning the best hair salon on the island gives Gen Redding a front-row seat to much of her hometown's ups and downs. But somehow, even in the midst of gossip central, Gen has been able to keep the terrible rift she and her husband experienced a few years earlier between just the two of them. Thankfully, they are now in a better place than ever. But when Levi is confronted by a skeleton from his past, Gen just might break.

Book Description

After darkness, there will always be light. A new beginning. Gen is more than ready to step up to her new role as Maddie's mother. The way that Maddie became Gen's daughter doesn't matter, just that she is. But just as Gen is wrapping her mind around her new role and embracing all things girly and pink, Gen gets a delicious surprise. However, as wonderful as this surprise is, can their brand new family handle any more change? Rich's betrayal tore Deb apart, but Deb now feels stronger because of what she endured--not that she'd ever thank Rich for the hell he put her through. Now a newer, stronger Deb is ready to jump back into the world of dating in the same way as any twenty-first century woman: online. As her best friend, Bess feels cautious about Deb's decision. But when Deb sees the handsome picture of the first man the site has ready for her, there's no talking Deb out of it. She is going to date ... and she's going to date that guy. Olivia is growing and moving on ... literally. She moves from her parents' home to rent the backyard cottage of none other than Dean Haskell--the saint of a man who has saved Olivia more than once. And although she senses her feelings of attraction growing for the man and thinks he might possibly feel the same way about her, Olivia knows the baggage she carries is still too fresh and heavy for anyone to deal with. Especially a man who deserves the world, like Dean. So against every female cell in Olivia's body, she decides that she and Dean will just be friends. Bess feels like her world has finally been righted. Her food truck is thriving, her children are moving forward, and her friends are doing well. After months of trying to decide what was best for her family, and especially for herself, Bess pulled the trigger on divorcing Jon. And although she will always have love in her heart for the man who was by her side for thirty years, the betrayal she experienced was too much to just let him walk back into her life. But when another man--ten years Bess's junior, charming, good-looking, and extremely into Bess--falls into her lap, Bess isn't sure what to do. Dating a new man feels wrong, but then so does going back to Jon. Join the women of Whisling on this next thrilling and beautiful chapter of their lives in New Beginnings on Whisling Island.

Book Description

Sometimes dreams are just nightmares wrapped in appealing packaging. The Lodge, the beautiful Rosebud Lodge that Callie and her friends have dreamed and worked for so long, is finally open for business. But for some reason their guests keep cancelling-before they even show up. At first Callie thinks she must be doing something wrong, but as she digs, she realizes that something, or more likely someone, is working hard to keep the girls from reaching success. She has to figure it out before the Lodge closes for good. But she also needs to figure out what role Leo and his deepening friendship plays in her life. Laurel can't help but feel that it's her fault the Lodge is verging on failure. None of the other girls have enemies like hers. Or at least like her ex's. But the girls won't let her walk away, so Laurel is determined to make things right, no matter what it takes. Or what old memories it dredges up. It should have been just a routine visit to the doctor. Instead, Hazel gets news that upends her life. The big C word. She feels terrified and alone, but there is no way she is making Dylan endure this journey with her, so she does her best to push him away. But Dylan isn't going anywhere and Hazel might finally be ready to let down her guard. Until her ex unexpectedly walks back into her life, the epitome of everything she wished he would have been during their marriage. The girls love to tease Hazel about the two men vying for her attention, but a real life love triangle is a lot messier than she would have ever imagined. Things are looking up for Kenzie. She and Bryan are making strides toward a restored, healthier marriage-the kind that will make them both happy. But their goal is still a ways off, so Bryan is staying in the city for now. Meanwhile, Kenzie's sister Raquel decides it's time to move home . . . into Kenzie's spare bedroom. As much as Kenzie loves her sister, they haven't lived together in decades. They can't even get through a conversation without disagreeing. How is this going to work? But ultimately the logistics don't matter. When it comes down to it, Kenzie will always help her sister. Hopefully she can work on this relationship without losing the progress she's made with Bryan. As if having a bit of a crush on her sous chef and ex arch nemesis, Alex, isn't messy enough, now Saffron has befriended Alex's mother. So not only does she get to see his disinterest toward her at work, but she also gets to watch him come home from dates with other women. She's an idiot. But even as Saffron is berating herself for being the kind of woman she never wanted to be, a lovesick fool, she can't help her feelings. And maybe it's just her dumb, hopeful heart, but she could swear Alex is a little more into her than he lets on. Isn't he? The Rosebud girls are clinging to their sanity as they ride the treacherous ups and downs of life. But through the struggles, disappointments, fears, and Hazel's battle for her very life, they know they aren't going through it alone. Because they have each other.
