Book 5:
The judge ruled there was no criminal action and put a no contact order in place. Carl’s lawyer will pursue damages in civil court. After targeting both Emma & Conner, will it ever really stop?
Conner declares his love and tells Emma he wants to marry her, and she says yes! After knowing tremendous loss, she now finds herself full of hope for the future.
We find out Carl put up a man named Ben , an employee of his & others to do the vandalism & crimes. Emma gives Ben a second chance by letting him work off the cost of the damages.
The ladies of Anna Maria pull off a wonderful celebration of Harold & Annas legacy, with Sarah & family attending, sharing the family’s beautiful story.
Then Carl shows up! Onto book 6 to see how this story ends.

Book 6: Somehow in Goodreads book 1 says 6. So I will conclude here. This was a wonderful, fun, romance mixed with mystery read. I loved the characters, especially Conner & Emma. Fun storyline & a great ending to a wonderful series. I highly recommend the series I plan to read more by this author.

At the end of the last book we were wondering if Connor was going to jail & what was going to happen with this set up accusations. . The judge rules in Connor’s favor & a very angry Carl threatens Connor and Emma yet again after the judges warnings to stay away from them.. Emma and Connor take the rest of day off and go out on the boat & just rest, relax & enjoy each others company. Connor and Emma start talking about their future and Emma gets the shock of her life! Emma and Patricia have an unknown visitor to the bakery. The visitor is Ben, an ex-employee of Carl. Ben confesses to following Carl’s orders to create the mischief that has plagued the bakery. Emma is shocked & is still a little precautious, not sure she can actually trust Ben. However she decides to makes Ben a surprising offer. What could that possibly be? The ladies of Anna Maria & Emma are busy planning this big reception for the family of Anna and Harold, the writer and intended recipient of the message in the bottle. Sarah, the granddaughter of Anna and Harold is bringing her whole family & extended family to the celebration. More romance is in the air as we learn the story of Anna and Harold. At the end of Book 5, we again are left hanging, again! Carl approaches Emma to & tells her he must talk with her! What could he possibly want now? What is he going to do now? Hasn’t he done enough already????

I received this ARC for free & I am giving my review forfreein my own words. Can’t wait to see how this all ends!! Stay tune for a great ending!

Wow, so much goodness going on in this book. Now that we know who was behind the shenanigans and destruction that almost destroyed the bakery and Connor's boat, Emma can start moving forward with Connor. Connor and Emma's relationship is so sweet and I am glad they found each other. The message in a bottle was truly touching. As a military spouse, l enjoy books that touch on military history real or not. This was truly moving.
I received this book for free as an ARC reader and my review is my own!

I gave this whole series three stars for one reason only. This should have been one book, not six. I read them all in two days, only because I didn’t start reading until late afternoon. I hate an author that breaks a good story into several books, forcing you to buy six books to get to the end of the story. This could have been one book easily. Thankfully I have KindleUnlimited and didn’t have to pay for six books. If I did have to pay, I would have missed out on a very good story, and an enjoyable read.

Whatcan amazing arthur

Grace Meyers is a wonderful heart felt writer who put s you into her stories.
I have enjoyed reading this series. Emma had lost her love and left her life to start anew one. She was blessed with finding love and happiness all over again and some very good friends to add to the pack. She has a heart of gold and an amazing way of seeing thing.
If your looking for something special to read I would recommend these books to you.

So much going on with a huge celebration is going on in Anna Maria. Excitement because of the reason for this celebration, also filled with love and a family’s history. Then the spoiled bully in town wants to talk.

Book 6–for some reason I couldn’t get this one to show up on Goodbooks. A huge surprise for Emma comes around. The love between Connor and Emma keeps growing as the count down begins for the wedding. The author did an amazing job
To keep things flowing and it’s written in such a way the reader feels inclusion to the wedding and spending time on the boat.

Recommend for sure!

Emma and Connor learn the judge's decision in the assault case against Connor. They also prepare for the day of celebration for the "message in a bottle". The family is so happy and appreciative. Just when things are looking up, Carl shows up again. I can't wait for the next book! I received an advanced reader copy of this book, and this is my honest opinion.

[Jana Beckhusen · Rating 5 out of 5]

The judge gives his ruling in the case of Connor’s supposed assault of Carl. Emma and Connor are relieved by the good news. They quickly settle into their budding romance and a possible future together. A celebration for the message in the bottle they found on the beach brings joy and happiness to the town and the family. Connor has a surprise in store for Emma but Carl may ruin the day.
Thank you to the author for the ARC. This review is my own opinion.

The Bakery On The Beach

This book was so filled with excitement with Connor proposing with a worm ring. Ben admitting to all the bad things he did to the bakery that Carl made him do. The celebration with the note in the bottle. Then the official engagement. Look forward to the next book.

Chapters, not books

I am enjoying the story line of these books. Good characters. I do not like that each book is only about 60 pages. Why not combine these "chapters" into a complete book?

The Bakery on the Beach book 5

As this series goes it’s onward and upward. I have to read the next book. I can’t wait to see how this series plays out. The antagonizer Carl is back again and I want to see what exactly he is up to. Should be interesting.

[Melinda Phillips · Rating 5 out of 5]

[Elizabeth Corvo · Rating 5 out of 5]

sweet and tender.

This is a loving story about love for two prominent characters in this book and also a couple that were in love many years ago

[Tracy Anderson · Rating 4 out of 5]

A joyous, wholesome story of goodness. I messed up on starting book 5 in a series of 6 books with a continuing story. Probably would have enjoyed more if I had known the back story but oh well 🤷‍♀️
