Newport Harbor House (Newport Beach #1)

Jen Watson is worried that this may be her last summer at the family’s beach house. She looks forward to going there every year, but they’ve been grumbling about not wanting to sink money into any repairs. She’s hoping she can change their minds, but when a major catastrophe happens, it may be too late and the family insists that it go on the market.

Her two best friends, Faith and Carrie are struggling with issues of their own. Carrie has her own dental practice but dreams of a career where people are actually happy to see her, and Faith is mentoring a student teacher and can’t help but notice how much things have changed since she started teaching decades ago.

Jen, Faith and Carrie have spent their summers at the beach house, and the memories are many and warm. Even their adult children don’t want to see it go. They all hate to see Jen lose the Newport house and all put their heads together to find a way to save it.
