The Summer Beach Town (Summer Secrets Series Book 1)

Victoria Drake is tired of feeling stuck.

Sick of waiting for her long-term boyfriend to man up and propose to her, when Victoria receives a surprise wedding invitation from her cousin, she takes the plunge and returns to her childhood hometown of Chance Bay, Rhode Island.

But returning home means facing up to old secrets...and old lovers. Her past boyfriend Eddie’s father disappeared without a trace – and in small towns, rumors never die. Caught up in a swirling mystery about the true story behind his father’s disappearance, Victoria distracts herself from her estranged family by unraveling the enigma of the man she used to love.

Eddie never forgot about Victoria…and when he hears she’s returned home, he bears the town’s suspicious eyes just to see her. Victoria doesn’t believe Eddie is a killer. But Eddie has secrets he’ll take to the grave, and Victoria is only scratching the surface...

Can Victoria overcome the bitterness of failed relationships and embrace a second “chance" for love in Chance Bay? Or will her old spark with Eddie become dashed by the turbulent waves of doubt and distrust?

The Summer Beach Town is a clean, feel-good contemporary women’s fiction summer beach read that has mysteries with later-in-life love.
