Good morning, friends!
I have a bit of a twist for you today, as well as a confession.
When I go searching for books I put in key words such as Christmas Novella KU romance.
What I failed to do this week was ask for romance. The first one that came up turned out to be a cozy mystery. I also seldom look at the blurb until after I've copied it to my file. I search the page count and that's pretty much it.
When the Harding sisters return to Newport Beach for the holidays, they expect cozy traditions by the sea — twinkling lights along the boardwalk, carols drifting from the chapel, and stockings hung in their beloved family home. What they don’t expect is a sealed letter hidden in the attic…a letter that whispers of betrayal, a missing heir, and the shocking possibility that the beach house they love may not belong to them at all.
From the career-driven eldest sister to the free-spirited youngest, from the cousin no one trusts to the aunt who raised them all, each woman must face the past she’s been running from. And when old flames reappear under the glow of Christmas lights, second chances stir hearts already weighed down by secrets.
As snow falls over the
sandy shores of Newport Beach, the Harding family is pulled into a web of
twists and turns that will test their bonds, rekindle lost loves, and challenge
everything they thought they knew about loyalty, forgiveness, and home.
While this wasn't a romance, the story was about love and family and how the love sometimes isn't what you think.
Coral Harper writes beautiful description. I could smell the salty air as the waves crashed against the shore and feel Claire's angst as she struggles figure out who is following her as she and Jake move from clue to clue trying to find answers to a twenty-year mystery and who was responsible for everything leading to her father's death. If I want to read another cozy, I'd turn to Coral Harper books in a heart beat. Christmas at Newport Beach is Book 3 in a 6-book series. She is a very prolific writer with great titles. I encourage you to check out her Amazon Author Page link below.
I'm giving Christmas at Newport Beach...
All my best!
