Lisa Hodges needs to make a decision fast. Thanks to her dead husband’s gambling addiction, their savings is almost gone. In her early fifties with a large, waterfront home on Nantucket to support, Lisa hasn’t worked in over thirty years, has no in-demand skills and is virtually unemployable.

Her only options are to sell the house and move off-island, or, she could use her cooking and entertaining skills and turn her home into a bed and breakfast. She desperately needs it to succeed because she has four grown children with problems of their own and wants to stay close to them. 

Her oldest daughter, Kate, has a fabulous career in Boston--working as a writer for a popular fashion magazine and engaged to a dangerously handsome, photographer, who none of them have met.

Kate's twin, local artist, Kristen, has been reasonably content with her on-again off-again relationship with an older, separated businessman. 

Her son, Chase, runs his own construction business and is carefree, happily dating here and there but nothing serious. 

Youngest daughter, Abby, is happily married to her high school sweetheart, and they've been trying to have a baby. But it hasn't happened yet, and Abby wonders if it's a sign that maybe their marriage isn't as perfect as everyone thinks.

Come visit Nantucket and see how Lisa's new bed and breakfast has an impact on almost everyone in her family. It's the first book in a new series that will follow the Hodges family, friends, and visitors to Nantucket's Beach Plum Cove Inn.

READ MY BOOK REVIEW

I saw someone post about this book on Instagram and decided to buy a copy because of their enthusiasm for it (and the entire series!). I’m happy to say that I really enjoyed it too. This is a women’s fiction novel that takes place on Nantucket and follows the Hodges family- the mother Lisa and her three daughters. Each has their own story to tell which will be relayed in later books so this one is basically an introduction to them and how their stories start, I think. It sort of reminds me of an Elin Hilderbrand or Kristen Woodson Harvey book (especially her Peachtree Bluff Series). So, if you enjoy either of those then you might really love this one! Would I recommend it? Absolutely. I already bought the second one in the series!
