Jenna Fossey's life is about to change. An unexpected inheritance and the chance to meet relatives she never knew existed has her heading to the charming little town of Magnolia Harbor. But as soon as she arrives, long-buried family secrets lead to even more questions, and the only person who can help her find the answers is her sexy-as-sin sailing instructor. 

Nothing makes Jude St. Pierre feel more alive than racing on the open sea - at least, not until Jenna comes strolling down his dock asking for sailing lessons. But it feels wrong to be attracted to her - especially when he learns why she came to town. Jude knows she deserves the truth but can he help her discover it without losing her and the family he's come to think of as his own?

Includes the bonus story "A Wedding on Lavender Hill" by Annie Rains!
When an event planner is asked to create the perfect wedding in just three days, she must turn to the last person she wants to ask for help - the infuriating owner of the house on the hilltop.

After the death of an unknown family member, Jenna is left with more money then she knows what to do with. When she finds out that she has some long last family member she decides to go to Magnolia Harbor to learn more about her fathers death and see about getting close to her only living relatives.  Jude is less then thrilled when he is asked for sailing lessons, so he asks for a unreasonable price hoping to get her to back off. Not only was she able to pay him for it, over time they managed to squirm their way into each others hearts.

This book was such a sweet and interesting book. I enjoyed the characters and getting both Jenna's and Jude's point of view. I enjoyed seeing how different their lives where and seeing how they helped better one another. Jenna was sort of lost and even with all the money she could possibly have there was no type of meaning. Jude on the other had was tied to his drunkard father and little to no help from others. There was ups and there was downs and there are plenty to keep the readers wanting more and hoping for the best for these characters. I really enjoyed this book. I also liked the little novella that was at the ending of this book as well.
