Coincidentally, I read this book after driving up Highway One as the fog rolled in from the ocean off northern California.
Ms Lee captured the setting and location perfectly and for me it added to the enjoyment of the book. I loved the pace of the plot and the excellent characterisation...flaws and all. An excellent read, highly recommended. I will be looking for more books from this author.

This was a great read for me because I really felt as though I could relate to some of the characters- Ryan Knight, in particular. He just has that natural instinct of protecting the people around him (his family, his friends, and the people of Pajaro Bay) and it can be a very useful thing, but sometimes it becomes a problem and I really felt the connection there between the character and I. Well done, Barbara Cool Lee.
This is the first book in a new series by a new author. I just loved it. I hope she writes more Pajaro Bay stories SOON! I enjoyed the realistic good people and their journeys to new beginnings in a quirky little beach town filled with eccentric characters.

Magnificent read! The characters Camilla and Ryan are intriguing people that fit the plot perfectly. A bit of a mystery, hiding, broke, a child, a sheriff and a strange nosy town that means well. The writer introduced the characters so smoothly and naturally it warmed my heart and seemed real of today not forced or made up but rather unique and sweet. After reading and finishing… I wanted it to go on, wanted to know what else might be in store for them, I wasn’t through knowing them yet.

I first saw this book on Goodreads and decided I had to read it, and am very glad I did!! The story line was great and besides the romance and suspense we were able to meet quite a few people in Pajaro Bay. I really like this in a book, to meet and sort of get to know other characters besides the main ones in more than a passing way. Ryan and Camille both had their own issues, and I wasn't sure if they would be able to work through them. Oliver is a great little boy and really Ryan and Camille a...more

Now to the good stuff. I loved this book. Barbara really developed her characters well. I felt like I knew Camilla and Ryan as their story progressed. And little Oliver grew on me as more of his story came to light as the story progressed. I would really enjoy living in Pajarro Bay. It sounded to me like the perfect place to live and love. I look forward to reading more of Barbara's stories set in Pajarro Bay.

Adorable, lively and like a warm hug.
I enjoyed this story very much. It was well-developed in plot as well as with the characters. The author kept me guessing as to who the antagonist really was. I look forward to reading the next Pajaro Bay mystery!
I won this book from Goodreads.com!! Thank you! It also was an autographed copy. Barbara Cool Lee is a wonderful author! I really loved the way she combined the mystery and romance together in the book. I really was surprised to find out who the "villain" was! Great read! I'll be getting more of her books!
Characters where instantly easy to like, story easy to read and really get into. I enjoyed this very much! Cannot wait to read more in the series.
A very polished work by a new author. I predict she will develop a strong following for future works in this series who want to learn more about events in Pajaro Bay.
