The Seaside Homecoming
Book 3 of the On Devonshire Shores series
Claire Summers returns to the Devonshire coast after years of separation from her family and answers an advertisement that offers a chance to build a new life. Her position connects her with a secretive proprietor while her sisters continue searching for the woman they have long wanted home. Old shame and unfinished family history make reunion more complicated than simply walking back through the door. This Regency novel combines seaside atmosphere, sisterhood, gentle mystery, romance, and a redemptive story about returning after exile.
