Cocoa Beach boardwalk
(Book)

As Samantha Sweeney dives into the renovation of Sweeney House with her mother, she repairs more than the inn--she and Dottie have never been closer. Fueled by a newfound strength and independence, Sam is certain she's up to the task of bringing her family's inn back to life, no matter what unexpected challenges they might encounter. While Sam and Dottie are focused on the inn, the family around them is facing new tests and trials. Sam's daughter, has a broken heart that needs mending, her sister is struggling with a daunting new addition to her family, and John, the eldest Sweeney, finds his perfect marriage as rocky as the shell-covered sands of Cocoa Beach. Each branch of the Sweeney family tree is swaying, but their roots run deep. When the newest member of the family threatens to snap one of those branches in half, it will take everything they have to bend and not break.
