Two hopeless romantics, generations apart. Can she find the love her great-aunt never did?Jill never expected to inherit her late Great-Aunt Bitsy’s beach retreat on the beautiful island of Nantucket. Her Great-Aunt was a hopeless romantic – and considering Jill’s lackluster attempts at love, she knows there must be a reason why she was chosen.
Embarking on an Autumn trip to the quaint island town of Breeze Bluff with her best friends, Jill quickly falls in love with the island’s charms. She dreams of giving up her old life and starting fresh. Not even Bitsy’s ex-husband – and his troublesome yet strangely charming grandson Brad – can make her change her mind.
With the momentous yearly Apple Festival looming on the horizon, Jill is faced with no shortage of mysteries and adventures as she prepares Aunt Bitsy’s house to celebrate the Fall. And all the while, she can’t seem to shake Brad and his witty charms. Can Jill carve out a new life for herself on this idyllic island? And will she complete the love story that her Great-Aunt Bitsy began all those years ago?
As a beautiful Autumn-themed adventure set on an idyllic island getaway, this fun and wholesome women’s fiction series blends a dash of mystery with clean romance to craft a delightful and memorable experience.
Jill and Brad continue to grow closer to each other. Jill flew out to Brad's homestead for his father's funeral and wake. Jill met Brad's ex, whom he is still very close to as a best friend, and they immediately connected and got along.
A horrible storm that turned into a hurricane came through causing damage to Jill's BnB along with a lot of other properties on Nantucket. Even though they suffered damage it can all be repaired, but upon learning The Whaler is totally gone Jill, one to not throw in the towel ever and give up, has broken down and believes they are not going to make it.
Received an early copy for my honest and voluntary review.
Jill meets Brad’s ex wife when Brad’s dad passes away. The storm hits the island and Jill and Brad hunker down at Bluff Inn with some guests and a menagerie of animals. At one point during the storm, Nathan goes out to remove a tree that is on the roof of the inn. When he doesn’t return, Brad goes out to help. Fearing the worst, Jill and Juliet go out to look for the guys fearing they have been injured in the storm
As this book ends, Jill goes out to view the devastation of the storm. Will Jill and Brad have a future together?
Thank you to the author for this ARC. This review is my honest opinion.
Ivory Fields is able to weave a story with those three elements neatly tucked into Book 5. There is joy, sadness, hope, despair and fear woven into the lives of Jill and Brad, and the family they have created at the Bluff Inn. Each book ends with a cliffhanger, and Book 5 is no different. I look forward to Book 6, and you will, too! Don't miss it!
This was excellent story about Jill and a storm that does havoc at the inn and people working together to help each other and worried about each other . I enjoyed this story that was an arc copy and thank you very much.
I really like Author Ivory Fields writing style. This book has it all romance, trials, suspense, friendships heartwarming read. I love the characters they are well defined. I was given an advanced copy of this book and am freely leaving my review.
