about the book
Sometimes you have to look beneath the surface to find the treasure within.
After years of searching, Bren Ryan has found her place in Hope Harbor. Working as a barista suits her to a T, as does the laid-back vibe of her adopted town. Nothing is lacking in her life–except romance. But that’s okay. Men are a complication she doesn’t need.
Buttoned-up CPA Noah Ward isn’t looking for love, either, when he arrives in town on a mission to convince his father to move closer to him. And he certainly doesn’t intend to fall for the quirky, free-spirited woman who’s taken up residence in his father’s guest cottage.
But when Noah finds himself sucked into Bren’s quest to help a struggling teen, might the two of them discover there’s more to each other than meets the eye?

review
another sweet romance for hope harbor, oregon!
noah ward's only intention for his vacation in hope harbor is to convince his dad to move back to st. louis. of course, his dad has no intention of being convinced—but he's not shy about working on a little convincing of his own. could two weeks in hope harbor be enough to upend noah's future plans of corporate success? might the colorful barista bren ryan contribute to the allure of small-town living?
noah and bren certainly have some issues to tackle in sunrise reef. while he's focused on pursuing one particular path for his life, bren has already achieved life she wanted—and is reluctant to trust anyone to really be a part of it (especially outside of hope harbor). mishaps, chance meetings, and an undeniable chemistry—along with some of charley's words of wisdom and general hope-harbor charm—abound throughout their story.
i loved this visit to the coastal oregon town and the reminder that a situation may not always be as complicated as it's made out to be. noah and bren were fun to get to know, and i'm sure other lovers of hope harbor and contemporary romance will love them, too.
considerations:
—language: none
—spice: kisses only
—faith: mentions of God and church—also, "the gods"
—content: abusive/toxic relationship with parent/stepparent, mentions of parental loss and cancer
