Lisa Later weaves a beautiful tale of second chances.

I truly enjoyed this story. Not only do we get to see what's going on with Jenn as the main character, we are also introduced to many of her friends, family, and neighbors.
As someone who has reached middle-aged, my favorite part is that this story is completely packed full of second chances, proving that life is full of new adventures just waiting around the corner.

If you love beach romances and second chances, you'll love this book. I can't wait to see where this story goes next!

second chances

A wonderful story filled with great characters. Returning home and finding that feeling of home that is deeply familiar, that sinks you back to a true, young, and vibrant self that an adult life sometimes robs you of. Made more special with those warm and familiar friends that helped form those growing up years.
Very nice.

Second chance read. The book has good character, but treads water more often than not. This could have been classified with young adult reads that meet up thirty years later. As far as I am concerned, this was mainly a cliffhanger.

Disappointed there isn't an ending/conclusion.

Can't say it's a cliffhanger, because not even a cliff in sight. It was just an end of a chapter. Not sure if I want to keep going with angst after angst with very little positive book after book.

I added this book on a recent “Stuff your Kindle Day”. It was easy on the brain and not too sweet. The author clearly left the ending open to encourage reading the very next book in the series. I will likely grab that one soon.

Jenn is returning to town to make a life running the newspaper. There is a lot here to unpack including relationships with other townspeople, old friends, neighbors and former loves (or almost loves). I could really relate to Jenn being where she is in her life, in a lot of ways she is starting over, but it's in a place where the people and institutions are familiar. She thinks she knows what she wants in her life, but she also finds that she needs to open herself up to new things too.

There is not a true ending!!!!!

This leaves the story up in the air. I hate that. It was good up to that point. Instead of book one its PART ONE!!! Wasted my time reading.

ffect us but also those around us.
