February - Diana - Beach House Confessions by Kara Gorski

BEACH HOUSE CONFESSIONS by Kara Gorski

From the wreckage of a national scandal to the heartbreak of a widow's hidden secrets, two best friends discover that some confessions lead to love—and others cost too much.

Meaghan Jones is America's sweetheart—until a Hollywood scandal sends her seeking refuge in a small coastal town at her best friend's charming beach house on the Delaware shore. She's sworn off romance, but the magnetic local restaurateur she's never forgotten keeps testing her resolve—stirring feelings she thought she'd buried forever.

Palmer Harding has the perfect life—until her husband drops dead. No one knows they haven't spoken in weeks. No one knows she kissed another man just days before. And no one can know the secret she's carrying now.

As summer unfolds under salt air and starlit skies, friendship, love, and long-buried truths collide. For one unforgettable season, two women will discover that second chances—in love and in life—are worth every risk.

February and March meetings combined due to timing issues.

As a child, Genevieve Laurent was told that dreams didn’t happen. When she was in her 30s, she fell in love with a young speed skier from Tahoe named Colin Burns. Colin believed in dreams and in Genevieve, and poetry too. He asked Genevieve to marry him.

Her Biggest Dream Collapsed

Colin was a wildly successful skier, the best in the world. Then he died on a speed course in France.

Genevieve Was Desperate

Genevieve called Tahoe Detective Owen McKenna and asked for help. But when he tried to assist, there was another tragedy, and Genevieve lost her last shred of hope. Her business was destroyed, she was being pursued by a ruthless killer, and her survival seemed unlikely.

Detective McKenna Was Determined to Rebuild Her Life

McKenna decided he would catch the killer, pick up the pieces, and put Genevieve’s life back together. But if he failed, it looked like he would die with her…
