Margo Harper is done with love. After swearing off it once before, she fell for the safe bet, the sure thing…but the only thing she can be sure of now is that her marriage is over. With only one place to go, she returns to Maine, desperate for her grandmother’s pancakes, her sisters’ laughter, and maybe a chance to begin again. But while Margo may have run home, she doesn’t plan on staying, especially when she comes face to face with the first man who ever broke her heart. Eddie’s reappearance in Oyster Bay is reason enough to turn the car around, but Margo is even more troubled when she discovers nothing in her hometown is quite as she left it. Her older sister is selling their childhood house, her younger sister can’t get her life together, and their aging grandmother can no longer keep any of their names straight. But just when it starts to feel like all is lost, Margo finds herself at a crossroads that leaves her questioning what is worth fighting for…and where she truly belongs.

Single mom Bridget Harper has no time for romance. Her hands are full enough running her new inn. Toss in a sister’s wedding to host, another sister’s career to help jumpstart, and a grandmother’s missing cat to find, and Bridget has little free time for anything other than taking a good book down to the beach. With troubled times officially behind her, she’s perfectly content with her busy life…until a handsome guest has her questioning what may be missing. Novelist Jack Riley came to Oyster Bay with one purpose only: to write.

Dragging out his stay in this small town is the last thing he had in mind, until he begins to wonder if he’s finally found his muse…

Heading up the restaurant of the Harper family’s inn is the job of her dreams, not to mention her chance to finally show her two older sisters that she’s not a kid anymore. But when a bad review of her signature brunch puts her face to face with the only man who ever touched—and broke—her heart, Abby is determined to redeem her reputation. It won’t be easy to win a good review of the inn while sidestepping the one man she’d like forget. But while she tries to win Zach Dillon’s favor, will he manage to win her heart…for good?

Licensed therapist Evie Donovan’s life plan was simple: work hard, stay focused, and everything would fall into place. Losing her dream job and having a summer fling were never part of that plan. Now, regrouped and recharged, she is ready to try again, and that means leaving behind the bartending job at her father’s restaurant and saying goodbye to those magical (and extremely uncharacteristic) romantic summer nights. Writing an “Ask Evie” column for the local newspaper is the perfect transition to get her back on track. But her plan didn’t include the possibility of her summer fling turning into her permanent boss, or that the black and white world she has chosen to live in is turning a little grey. Between fantasizing about her now off-limits boss and fielding emails from a half sister she’s never met, Evie begins to wonder if she can turn the helpful advice she’s known for onto herself. She’s used to letting her head be her guide, but for once, she might just be forced to follow her heart—even if it takes her a little off her carefully chosen path…

Californian Kelly Myers has been dreaming of a postcard perfect holiday in Oyster Bay with her newfound family, but no one ever prepared her for a blizzard, or warned her that the cottage she is renting doesn’t exactly have a reliable furnace. Still, she’s determined to make this New England Christmas the best one ever, complete with gingerbread houses, stocking stuffers, and all the other things she missed out on growing up…things that her half-sisters don’t seem to have any time for now. When the cottage’s caretaker makes it known that the old house will soon be torn down, Kelly decides to make him an offer he can’t resist—first, she’ll have to help him find his Christmas spirit. But as the days pass and her hopes for the holiday begin to dwindle, Kelly discovers that there’s more to this small town than she first thought, and that it could just turn her back into a believer after all. With a little tinsel, a dash of romance, and a few surprises, this Christmas may still be the most magical one yet…

Melanie Dillon is always the bridesmaid. She’s also the wedding dress consultant, inevitable crisis manager, sometimes cake tester, and reluctant therapist to all the brides who come through the doors of Bayside Brides in downtown Oyster Bay. And after years of standing back and watching other women find their happy endings, she makes a promise to herself that this year, she will be one of them. With her brother’s wedding approaching, she sees an opportunity to expand her business and finally shed those last few (okay, more than a few) pounds she put on since chocolate and wine replaced her no-good boyfriend a year ago. But when her ex snags an invitation to the event, Melanie turns to her best friend to pose as her date. Back in town to take over his retiring father’s medical practice, Jason Sawyer is sweet, smart, and reliable. He’s also been in love with Melanie since they were kids—not that she ever noticed. Now, with a second chance within reach, he has to decide if he will admit his feelings or move on for good. All Melanie wants is the same promise she makes to her clients every day, but when professional and personal plans collide, she realizes that happy endings don’t all come in the same form, and that sometimes, the life you thought you wanted isn’t nearly as wonderful as the one you already have.
