About this item

*** Best-selling Amazon Author Grace Meyers brings you a Summer mystery romance.

When Tess McCormick lost her husband, part of her died with him.

Quitting her job as a police detective for an early retirement and with her grown son off to follow in his parent’s footsteps, she struggles to find a new direction in life. But after the discovery of a mysterious beach house leads her to a small island town off the coast of North Carolina, Tess is brought face-to-face with the last man she ever expected to meet.

Nick Hogan is a broken man. After the tragic death of his wife and daughter, the winds of fate brought him to the island to live out the rest of his days in solitude and grief. But seeing Tess again kindles a new spark of life within him – one he thought he’d lost long ago.

As Tess struggles to unravel the shadowy story behind her late husband – and make sense of the strange and eccentric locals – she finds herself strangely drawn to Nick. But someone on the island wants her gone... and when disaster strikes, Tess will need to put on her detective’s cap and solve one last case.

Two souls shattered by grief. Can Tess and Nick mend their hearts and find new life on the island? Or will their hopes be dashed on the rocky shores of old wounds and suspicions?

Embark on a beautiful beachside adventure that will enchant your imagination with quirky characters, page-turning mysteries, and a picturesque small-town setting. Whispers In The Wind is a charming contemporary women’s beach read that’s perfect for fans of clean and wholesome stories with feel-good themes and happy endings.

She shares with Karen her neighbor and friend about the land, and she decides to take a trip there to see what it's all about. She cannot believe Cameron did not tell her, she thought they shared everything. Karen is excited and wants to go along, but she has a family, Tess tells her she will tell her all about what she finds. The next is goes there, her son is not happy about that, she wants to go. It turns out it's a small town, no cars on the island and lots of strange nosy people she meets.
The house needs a lot of work, the scenery at the beach is so lovely she feels that she has come home. She decides to put her house on the market and make this her home and retore the house. Nick is a strange neighbor, he lost his wire and his daughter, and is very unhappy, Tess meets him, and he looks terrible, and she offers to cut his hair and beard the next day, He does show up and she cuts the hair and beard, and I think she knows him. Very good story, now we wait to see what happens next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Start to Series
Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2024
Introduction to main characters was interesting. Tess is easy for me to relate with as I'm still missing my husband like it was recently, instead of 5 years. Totally agree with each individuals grief is different and am glad she is doing what is right for her.

Nick, James is a recluse with dealing with his deathly trauma for his wife and daughter, which was a long time ago. However, he is spinning out of control and turning inward and leaving life behind him while he is living in the past.

Seeing them meet and realize they have each just found a lost love was a good visual and well written,

I received a free copy, ARC, to read and am giving my free, honest and voluntary review.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good story but horrible editing
Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2024
I've made it into book 3 mainly because the story is somewhat interesting but the editing is horrible. Mixed up names, odd sentence structures, typos...you name it, this book series has it!

I'll probably stick with it because the books are short and I don't have any others on my list right now. However between my frustration with the editing and pretty much every other character in town besides Nick/James and Tess, I don't know that I'll try another series by this author

Whispers in the wind - Book 1. I received my ARC copy and I’m voluntarily leaving my review. Tess is retired and lost her husband a year ago and is finally clean in up her husband’s possessions. Her son has left for the police academy and she is debating whether to downsize when she comes across a paper showing that her husband owned a property in North Carolina. Tess never knew about it and decided to take a trip to check it out. The island doesn’t allow cars and once she gets there she falls in love with the house and meets the man next door! After offering to trim his beard and clean him up she realizes who he is! Guess we’ll find out in the next book!

4.0 out of 5 stars A mixed up start
Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2024
The start was a little mixed up & I couldn’t get everyone straight who they were because there wer so many introduced at the same time it got a little confusing. I had a hard time getting them straight. Tess is a retired police officer who lost her detective husband about a year ago & now her only child Alex is leaving to go to the Police Academy to follow in his father, grandfather, great grandfather’s footsteps & become a police officer. SomTess decides to go through her husband’s things & get rid of what she can. When she is cleaning out his office she finds a deed for a property in Bald Head Island, North Carolina. She is shocked because know nothing about it & decides to check it out. The funny thing is it’s in the name of James McGregor. Who is James McGregor & why does Cameron have paper for a property in Bald Head Island, NC? Tess decides to go check it out. What a weird town & strange behavior? The big question is who is Nick & how is he connected to Tess’s past? Why did he tell her his name was James when it really is Nick who she thinks she recognizes, but he gives her a different name, why? They definitely have a past! The house was lovely but is run down & in need of repairs. Tess has fallen in love with the beauty of the beach & the house although the house is in need of a lot of repair. What will Tess decide to do. Will she sell & go back home? Does she really know Nick. Why does this feel like home to her? A lot of questions to be answered, but a good start to the series. I think I’m gonna love this series. It got more interesting at the end. So ready for book 2!!

I received this Advanced Reader’s Copy for free & I’m giving my review for free in my own words.
