Crown Island

April Raines is facing the end of her long-term marriage after her husband begins another family. Eager for a fresh start, she returns home with her grown daughters to Crown Island, just off the coast of Southern California. When Ryan Kingston acquires the historical Majestic Hotel, he is determined to bring the vintage Victorian beach resort back to life. But it could come at a steep cost to him and his carefully guarded privacy. Especially when April Raines, head of the new Crown Island Historical Society, captures his attention. Will they both get a second chance at life?

Junie Raines is ready for a second chance at life on a sunny island off the coast of Southern California. She’s managing the gift shop at the Majestic Hotel, a Victorian-era beach resort, and her sister Maileah is trying her patience with her sibling rivalry. It’s been two years since Junie’s husband died. She longs for a second chance to have a family while she’s still young, but dating has its challenges with Maileah around. Junie is looking for a beach cottage, and her sister is determined to move in with her.

After losing her job in Seattle, Maileah moves in with her sister Junie on Crown Island for a fresh start. Now in her thirties, she wonders if she will ever find the partner and future she has dreamed of. When she decides to use a dating app, her friend Sailor, a champion surfer, insists on vetting the suitors. But what happens next is the real surprise.

The grand reopening of the Majestic Hotel is the event of the season on Crown Island, and interior designer Deb Whitaker is at the center of it all. After spending nearly a year restoring and redesigning the vintage landmark interiors, she’s finally ready to celebrate. And she’s not going alone. Matteo, charming and attentive, is the new man in her life.
