A moving, uplifting novel about motherhood, starting over, and an unexpected summer romance…
Kit Blakemore is ready to live again. After her husband died while serving in the military, she was in a haze of grief. Now she wants to reclaim her former self—finish her degree and find a better career to provide for their sweet little boy, Oliver. To do that, she’ll need to sell her late husband’s dilapidated Victorian in Seashell Harbor. But first, Kit intends to give Ollie the kind of unforgettable seaside summer she had growing up, making lifelong memories and friendships.
Of course, nothing goes exactly as she planned. Ollie is struggling with his confidence, and frankly, so is Kit. But everything changes when her husband’s best friend, Alex de la Cruz, returns to town, offering to help her renovate. She doesn’t expect Alex to temporarily move in…or for him to bond with Ollie…or for her numb heart to begin thawing. Slowly he’s helping Kit and Ollie heal, and it scares her to death.
Kit swore she wouldn’t leave herself open to the pain of loss again. But if she’s going to teach her son to be brave and move forward, Kit must first face her own fears.

After the death of her husband Kit is ready to finally go out there a better herself but that includes selling her late husbands house that's in pretty bad condition. Things get a bit complicated when her husband bestfriend, Alex, returns to help her out.
This was such a sweet book. I really enjoyed reading it. I loved seeing Kit getting out there and doing more for herself, while it was great and all to have a support system after her husbands death, she was beginning to feel like she was using this easier life as a crutch and feeling stuck. She made a list of things she wanted to improve and change and it was great watching as she was working on it. Then in comes Alex who there is a bit of a conflict with being that he's a bit stand offish and grumpy and while he's here to help her out it was interesting seeing the change in him as well. I loved seeing the romance and seeing Alex and Kits son spending time together it was pretty sweet. There was plenty to love and enjoy about this book and highly recommend you readers check this book out.
