About this listen
A heartwarming sisters saga full of hope, humor, and heart...
Tori Wingate knows that spending the entire summer on Amelia Island running the family-owned Riverfront Café means she’s falling right into the arms of a new man for a brief romance. But the more she realizes that all she wants to do is sail into the sunset with the handsome doctor…the more life proves it has other plans.
Her sister Raina is not only looking at the end of a marriage and the start of a life she never imagined, she’s charged with recouping money that has disappeared from the Wingate Properties accounts. And while widowed Grace struggles with the challenge of being a single parent to a unique child, patriarch Rex Wingate faces his own trials on the road to recovery.
When the clouds roll over the café on Amelia Island, the Wingate women learn over and over again that the bond between seven sisters is as strong as steel, as gentle as an ocean breeze, and as lasting as their family legacy.

Her sister, Tori, a divorcee who owns a catering business in Boston, also flies in to join the others at the hospital. But an unexpected run-in with their father’s rather attractive neurologist adds a new dimension to the days and weeks ahead.

Samantha Owens' estranged stepfather has died, leaving her his cottage in Nantucket - a place she fled years ago, never planning to return. As a single mom, Samantha can't afford to pass up a financial windfall like oceanfront property. So she travels home to fix up the house and sell it...never suspecting that Landon Reed still lives two doors down. As their long-dormant romance begins to bud again, Samantha must face a past that separated her from the God of her childhood. And she must tell Landon why she fled the island in the first place - a secret that could tear them apart.

An enjoyable listen and sweet story
I picked up the first book in this series when I was on a beach vacation and looking for a relaxing listen. It started a little slow as each character was introduced, but by the end of the book I was ready to pick up the second one in the series and had to come to enjoy the various sisters and family connections. There’s just enough mystery, drama, and romance to keep it all interesting. It’s a very lovable family. Good narration, too.
