Bookstore on the Bay: A Sweet, Later-in-Life, Small Town Romance by Leeanna Morgan
Fans of Pamela Kelley and Robyn Carr will love this later-in-life, small-town romance.

She’s 65 years old and ready to embrace the adventure of a lifetime!

When Isabel receives an invitation to a reunion from her childhood friends in Sapphire Bay, she hesitates. It's been a long time since they've been together in the small lakeside town where they met as teenagers. Now 65 years old and recently widowed, she's yearning for a fresh start. Deciding this could be the change she needs, Isabel tells her friends she'll be there.

After she arrives, she discovers the town's bookstore is up for sale and at risk of closing. With encouragement from her friends and Frank, a retired lawyer with a mysterious past, Isabel takes a leap of faith and purchases the store.

As Isabel and Frank grow closer, she discovers he's harboring dangerous secrets. When shadows from Frank's past catch up with him, Isabel finds herself caught in the crossfire, forcing them both to make impossible choices.

Bookstore on the Bay is the first book in Leeanna's A New Beginning series and can easily be read as a standalone. All of Leeanna’s series are linked. If you find a character you like, they could be in another novel!
