A Season of Second Chances
This summer, second chances start with a single knock at the door.
Oyster Island has been buzzing with the return of Lawson Thorne! The gifted brewmaster is trying to rebuild his life and prove to friends and family that he’s changed. But when Lawson becomes the guardian to four-year-old twins, it’s almost more than he can handle. Until his pretty neighbor Clara Martinez knocks on his door.
With her son heading to college and her recent celiac diagnosis, the widowed single mom is looking for a fresh start. Clara’s parenting senses start tingling when she sees Lawson struggling with the twins. When she offers a helping hand, Lawson seems to think she’s a lifesaver…and a lovely distraction from a past he just can’t escape. Clara has her own emotional baggage, too. Maybe she’s meant to help Lawson heal, so that they can build a new family…together.

Another in the Love at Hideaway Wharf series, in which Lawson Thorne is home to rebuild the life he nearly threw away when he ended his upcoming wedding and nearly lost his best friend in the bargain. Now he's an employee rather than a partner in the brewmaster business as he takes care of the four-year-old twins of his late brother and sister-in-law. But he is certain he's going to fail at that job, too.
Then Clara Martinez moves in next door. She takes it upon herself to help Lawson with the twins when he's most in need and soon comes to see that the problems she's facing following the death of her husband pale in comparison to the joys she feels when tending the twins and their very handsome uncle.
But will their respective problems from the past overwhelm their respective and joint efforts to move forward into the present, perhaps with more joy than angst? Perhaps the children can help them reach that all-important goal.
