The Beach House by Jenny Hale is perfect for Summer romance reading. If I'm totally honest though, this book is a great read any time of the year!  It's full romance, a beach house in a quaint seaside town and a stack of mysterious letter that leads to a mystery needing to be solved. All my favorite things rolled into a wonderful story! 

I found The Beach House to be an engaging, relaxing read with realistic characters and a story that kept me on my toes.  At times I laughed out loud and other times I was moved to brief tears. I walked away from this story with a warm fuzzy feeling and big smile. I definitely recommend this book!

FROM THE PUBLISHER

When her gram passes away, Melanie Simpson feels utterly lost. But her grandmother’s will gives her a purpose: an inheritance to buy a crumbling house in Rosemary Bay. They used to visit the village every summer, sit by the sparkling water on a beach the color of pearl, and daydream about turning the place on the corner into a bed and breakfast.

On her first night in her new hometown, Melanie meets local contractor and landowner Josh Claiborne, whose eyes match the dazzling sea. Melanie plans to restore the beach house to its original glory, and Josh is the perfect person to help renovate the wrap-around porch weathered by the coastal breeze and the peeling white paint faded by the sun.

But hiding in a closet is a yellowing stack of letters that could change everything. The looping handwriting reveals the mystery of the rickety house—a buried history that touches everyone in Rosemary Bay. Will its secrets bring Melanie and Josh together or tear them apart?
