Shell Point Secrets
A woman from his past, a mysterious old house, and a second chance for love…
Hunter Conrad is haunted by one dark day. When the reclusive tech genius returns to south Florida to settle his aunt’s estate, memories come streaming back. Can a woman from his past breach his firewall and rewrite the code in his heart?
Madison Elliot has given up on love. But the hospital administrator will do whatever it takes to help her asthmatic son, even take on a job cleaning the old house at Shell Point. The position comes with a secret assignment, and a house that should be empty is occupied by her friend’s handsome brother.
Madison wants a father figure for her son, but her head and her heart can’t get on the same page. Hunter can’t deny the attraction, but strange things have been happening since Madison’s arrival, and he has reasons not to trust her. The mysterious old house, holding valuable art and a parlor full of oils and herbs, has secrets. Danger seems to lurk in the corners.
Will Madison and Hunter overcome past betrayals and open their hearts?

This is the latest book set in the fictional Valencia Cove. While still essentially a romance, this story differs from the author's previous works due to an undercurrent of mystery.
Madison and Hunter are the two main protagonists. They each have emotional pain from their past, and meet through force of circumstances at an old rambling mansion at Shell Point. That's where the mystery comes in. Suffice to say all is not as it seems at the old house.
I enjoyed the combination of romance and strange goings-on. As with some of the author's earlier books, I sometimes found the large number of characters a bit hard to keep track of. But that's a minor quibble in a pleasant, light-hearted romance tinged with mystery.

Shell Point Secrets: Another great read from Juliet
Once again, Juliet has done an excellent job sucking me from life's stresses and into the world of Valencia Cove. I love how authentic her characters feel, the romance that blossoms throughout, and the storyline that drives everything home. I look forward to reading her next book!

Secrets at the beach house
This was an interesting romance between a grumpy planet and his very slow house cleaner. He didn't know his sister sent her to find something for her. Little did they know his well they could get along. A good read.
