"A charmingly quirky seaside town offers a recently separated restaurateur a fresh start and possibly a new lease on love in A Season for Second Chances, by the author of The Twelve Dates of Christmas Annie Sharpe's spark for life has fizzled out: her kids are grown, her restaurant is doing fine on its own, and her marriage has come to an unceremonious end. She finds a winter guardian position in a historic seaside home and decides to leave her city life behind for a brand-new beginning. Arriving in Willow Bay, Annie is enamored by the charming house, the invigorating sea breeze, and the town's rich seasonal traditions. The neighbors receive her with open arms-- except for the surly nephew of the homeowner, whose grand plans for the property are at odds with her residency. As Christmas approaches, will a little can-do spirit and holiday magic make this a season for second chances? -- adapted from back cover
