Description
A grandmother’s secret. A fragile marriage. A summer that changes everything.
When Esme Gordon returns to picturesque Mermaid Cove for her beloved Grammy’s funeral, she hopes for comfort and closure. Instead, she’s met with a tangle of emotions. Her sisters have grown distant, and her mother, Gwen, bristles with old resentments. Then what should have been a brief visit takes an unexpected twist when her grandmother’s unusual will is revealed.
Alicia Hamilton, a famed novelist with a flair for the whimsical, has left her loved ones a personal riddle to solve before they can claim their inheritance. It’s a final, heart-stirring game that will change each of their lives from a woman who always believed in a touch of magic.
Determined to honor her grandmother’s last wish, Esme is the first to take up the challenge. But the longer she stays in Mermaid Cove, the harder it becomes to ignore what’s unravelling around her. Her husband Joe is distant, her family fractured, and the small town she loves is under threat from a ruthless developer with a decades-old grudge.
When she uncovers the final piece of her grandmother’s puzzle, Esme must make an impossible choice: return to the life she knows, or risk everything on a new chapter by the sea.
Set in a charming small town, The New Chapter is the heartwarming first book in the Mermaid Cove Romance series, a clean romance women’s fiction saga filled with sisterhood, family drama, and new beginnings.
