~ Synopsis ~
"My dearest grand-daughter, listen
to your heart, believe in a brighter tomorrow, and always, always leave room
for dessert."
Noelle Olsen has never been impulsive, but when she inherits the old family bed
and breakfast, she surprises everyone by quitting her corporate job and
starting over in Beachwood Bay: the sleepy coastal town that’s home to old
memories, new friends — and the one man she never saw coming.
Ash Callahan isn’t looking for love. He’s built his real-estate empire out of
discipline, control, and cool logic — so why does one kiss from a carefree
stranger send his world tilting off its axis?
Their connection is undeniable; the chemistry, impossible to
ignore. But just as Noelle considers opening her heart again, the pair find
themselves facing off over the town’s future — and their own. With so much as
stake, will they find a way to bridge the divide, and build a love that’s
unforgettable?
~ Excerpt ~
“Watch out!”
The packed crowd in Jimmy’s
bar suddenly shifts, and I go slamming into someone.
“Sorry!” I put my hands
out to keep from falling, and a pair of strong arms grip me tightly, keeping me
on my feet. “I didn’t see you—”
I look up, and the
words fade on my lips. The room disappears—all the noise and jostling crowd
blurring into background static.
It’s him.
Ash. The man from the
masquerade party. The one who led me on a wild night of adventure—and never
called me the next morning. He should be five hundred miles away, but he’s
here, in the middle of the crowded bar in Beachwood Bay, looking at me like I’m
a ghost.
I know how he feels.
It’s impossible, it has to be. But I can feel his hands, gripping me tightly;
feel the warm, solid muscle of his body against mine.
I know those hands.
I’ve explored that body. There would be no mistaking them, even if I wasn’t
gazing into his piercing dark eyes, the ones branded on my memory.
Oh my god.
The moment stretches,
electric. Then someone slams into me again, and Ash yanks me back. Suddenly,
the world rushes in again.
“What are you…?” I
whisper, still not able to believe it. “I mean…”
I fight to collect
myself, but before I can form a coherent sentence, ash grabs my hand and pulls
me across the room. He’s moving so fast, I can barely keep up. I hurry after
him, through the crowd and down a back hallway.
“Where are we going?” I
gulp, my heart racing. “Slow down. Ash!”
He ignores me, pulling
me after him, up a flight of stairs, and through another door. We emerge on the
rooftop, a flat expanse decorated with string lights and a view of the whole
bay. I barely have time to catch my breath before ash brings his hands to my
face, pushes me back against the wall and kisses me so hard I forget my own
name.
Yes.
Just like before, the
chemical reaction is instant: a flare of heat surging through me, so bright it
blots the world, like staring straight into the sun. I part my lips, greedy for
the taste of him, loving the sensual caress of his tongue as he slides it deep
into my mouth.
Ash groans against me,
and I arch up, wrapping my arms around his neck to pull him closer. He’s
gripping me so tightly, my body is crushed against him; my back hard against
the wall. He threads the fingers on one hand roughly through my hair, pinning
me in place as his mouth continues its devastating exploration.
There’s no way to
explain it, how my body responds to his touch. Touch-paper to a flame; igniting
like never before. I run my hands through his dark hair, slide across the
muscular contours of his back, gripping at his shirt and kissing him with
everything I have. I can’t think, I can’t breathe, I just fall deeper into the
kiss, our passion obliterating every last thought from my mind.
It’s a rush of glitter
in my veins, of soaring fever and a low, aching need. Desire consumes me, hot
and demanding, until suddenly, ash wrenches free.
I gasp for air, sinking
back against the wall. My legs go weak as his eyes rake over me, blazing darkly
with lust. “What are you doing here?” He whispers harshly.
“I…” I can’t find the
words, I’m still reeling with shock—and desire.
A shadow crosses his
face. He shakes his head, looking dazed. “No,” he mutters, cutting me off.
“This isn’t happening.” Before I can say another word, he turns and strides
away from me, slamming the exit door with a crash. I’m left alone on the
rooftop with nothing but the sound of my own beating heart.

The final installment in the Beachwood Bay Series.....bittersweet. Melody Grace has given us many couples to fall in love with along the way and Noelle and Ash were no different.
Ash, is all business until Noelle....she makes him feel and that is something he just doesn't have time for. Until she's all he can think about.
Noelle set off to find herself in the sleepy beach town and turn her grandmother's business around. She didn't expect to find the one person she was trying to forget there.
Ash....another hot, sexy man with a desire for control. Ash was at times infuriating. Always willing to put business first, but when I stopped to think about why I kind of let him slide....Until he does the unthinkable and breaks Noelle in the process.
Noelle is only trying to carry on tradition but when she is pushed by the one person she thought she could trust...she pushes back. Trying to break Ash of his tunnel vision, she may have pushed to far.
But when fate pushes you back together, can the underlying lies be forgiven? Can you forge a future neither of you never saw coming?
Well, grab you beach attire and head on down to Beachwood Bay and find out. Take the time to reflect on all of the other wonderful characters we have been given by Melody, catch up with them and say goodbye. But remember....to find the one who will always be your hurricane.
