Synopsis
She walked away from the man she loved. Now he’s back… and on a mission to destroy her life. Six years ago, two lines on a pregnancy test caused Tessa Carver to pack up her entire life, leave the first stable relationship she ever had, and start over somewhere new. Now a business owner and busy single mother, Tessa’s done her best to leave the past behind and focus on building a bright future for herself and her son on Sunflower Beach. While also pretending she doesn’t still think about the man she left behind. Now he’s back, and he’s furious—and Tessa’s carefully constructed life is about to crumble to the ground. And while the other women of Sunflower Beach are determined to help their friend, they’ve got serious problems of their own: the endless search for a missing wife and daughter, surprising questions about a new relationship, a looming financial disaster, and a charity event that isn’t going the way anyone planned. Life on the island is getting more complicated, but just like the tide that rolls against the sun-soaked shore, every ending always carries with it the promise of a fresh start. Lose yourself in the saltwater days and firefly nights of Sunflower Beach, where a cast of unforgettable characters help each other navigate love and loss, hope and heartache, found family, and second chances. This romantic women’s fiction series is suitable for all ages, and is best read in order.
