Return to Rosewood Beach
A heartwarming family saga about the bond between siblings, laughter, love, and new beginnings.
Julia Owens never planned to return to her hometown of Rosewood Beach. Her life in New York, working long hours at a high-powered ad agency, is exactly what she always dreamed of.
But when she loses her job and then learns that her father has passed away, everything changes. Drawn back to the small coastal town for the funeral, she reunites with her mother and three siblings, only to discover some shocking news: their father’s hidden gambling debts have left The Lighthouse Grill, their beloved family restaurant, on the brink of ruin.
Determined to help her mother save the restaurant from a rival family eager to swoop in, Julia settles in for what she believes will be a short stay. But every day spent with her siblings—as well as her run-ins with the ruggedly handsome single dad next door—make her question the big-city ambitions she once held so tightly.
Cooper Harris, the charming father of a rambunctious two-year-old girl, is exactly the kind of distraction Julia insists she doesn’t need. But as chance encounters lead to an unexpected friendship—and maybe something more—she starts to wonder if there’s room in her carefully planned future for a man raising a toddler.
With her mother reeling from the new revelations and her siblings juggling their own secrets, Julia throws herself into preserving The Lighthouse Grill and her family’s legacy. As she does, she begins to realize that sometimes the path you never thought you’d take… is exactly where you belong.
Take a trip to Rosewood Beach, where the water is warm, the sand is soft, and the Owens family is waiting to welcome you into their lives! This sweet and uplifting women’s fiction series is the perfect bookish escape.

Excellent book

I loved the characters.. definitely want to keep reading the series. I don’t think there was enough of a climax and wanted a little more drama.

🏖️ A family restaurant, old wounds, and a second chance at home
My first book by Fiona Baker and it surprised me more than I expected. This isn’t just a sweet coastal comfort read; it’s layered with grief, family fractures, and the complicated emotional hangover of coming home after building a life somewhere else. It tackles the moment when everything you’ve worked for suddenly collapses and you’re forced to face the version of yourself you left behind. And in that mess, in that heartbreak, there’s also warmth, laughter, and the terrifying possibility that maybe you’ve been striving for the wrong future all along.
This book is slow, hopeful, messy in the way real families are, and saturated with love in all its imperfect forms. It leans deeply into sibling dynamics and generational responsibility, while still treating romance as a meaningful thread instead of a last-minute add-on. If you’re here for spice don’t be. If you’re here for emotional growth, second chances, grief handled with tenderness, and a love story that respects reality instead of fairy-tale shortcuts you will settle into this story beautifully.
The Story
When Julia Owens loses her big-city dream job and returns home for her father’s funeral, she expects emotional cleanup not financial disaster. The Lighthouse Grill, the heart of her family’s identity, is about to collapse under hidden gambling debts. What begins as a short stay turns into a full-time fight to save the restaurant, reunite her family, and figure out who she is without the title and career she once clung to.
And then there’s Cooper Harris the rugged single dad next door who complicates every plan Julia has to leave. Their slow friendship-to-something-more unfolds gently, making space for connection rather than forcing it. The romance never overshadows the family story it supports it.
What I Loved
✔️ Realistic sibling dynamics love, resentment, loyalty, all at once
✔️ A romance subplot that respects grief and timing
✔️ The comfort-read feeling without ignoring emotional weight
✔️ Cooper’s gentle, steady personality as a perfect contrast to Julia
✔️ A strong portrayal of returning home without painting it as “giving up”
🎧 Narration
Narrated by Amy McFadden
Her performance is professional and expressive, and she handles emotional scenes smoothly. However, I personally struggled a bit with this narrator her tone didn’t fully match the way I connected with Julia internally. It’s a case of strong narration that simply didn’t fit my listening preferences. For someone who already enjoys McFadden’s narration style, this will likely not be an issue.
Tropes & Vibes
✔️ Small-town return
✔️ Family secrets
✔️ Found-again identity
✔️ Restaurant legacy
✔️ Single-dad romance
✔️ Grief and rebuilding
✔️ Slow-burn connection
✔️ Hopeful ending
Final Thoughts
Return to Rosewood Beach is a tender, uplifting, emotionally satisfying story that builds its power not through dramatic plot twists, but through character shifts that feel real and earned. It’s about siblings who don’t always get along but refuse to give up on each other, parents who weren’t perfect, and rediscovering the meaning of home when life falls apart. The romance is warm and well-paced not torrid or overly dramatic and exactly right for the tone of the book.
If you want comfort, emotional depth without devastation, and that nostalgic small-town pull of sunsets, family dinners, and rebuilding what matters this is absolutely worth the listen.

This was a wonderful story about family and the ties that bind a family together. The characters were well-written and engaging. I look forward to the next boon in the series.

Return to Rosewood Beach is an enjoyable coastal women’s fiction story to get lost in, and ended up containing more layers than I was expecting.
Julia returns to her small, close-knit coastal hometown upon the death of her father, in order to reunite with her mother and siblings and assist in planning the funeral. What she doesn’t expect is a friendship with Cooper, a local single dad. When a secret is revealed that puts their family’s restaurant in danger, that friendship becomes something she relies on…and maybe more.
I enjoyed the majority of this book, but I do wish that we had a bit more explanation in some spots. I appreciated Fiona’s exploration of the Owens family dynamic, and how Julia interacted with each sibling and with her mom. Her budding romance with Cooper, and how she grows a relationship with his daughter, is really sweet and a good palette cleanser.
This was my first experience with Amy McFadden as a narrator. I have an appreciation for her vocal talent and I do think she’s a great voice actor, but her delivery of Julia’s character in particular just didn’t mesh with what I personally envisioned.

Return to Rosewood Beach is the first audiobook in Fiona Baker’s romantic women’s fiction series, Rosewood Beach. This wholesome, slow-burn romance mainly revolves around Julia Owens—who is returning to her hometown after her father’s death and abruptly losing her job at her New York ad agency—and Cooper Harris, a widowed, single father who has recently relocated to Rosewood Beach seeking a fresh start. While their romance is the main focus of the story, it also follows the lives of various other members of the Owens family to the point of chapters actually being written from their perspectives. Subsequent books in the series will delve further into those characters’ relationships. This story is sweet, cozy, and romantic, and while more serious issues such as grief and family betrayal are addressed, the overall story is fairly low angst. The solo narration for this book is provided by Amy McFadden. Her expressive and layered performance brings the story to life beautifully and further elevates this enjoyable listen.

This book is an appropriate beginning to this new series by Fiona Baker. The reader is introduced to the three sisters and one brother in the Owens family. Two sisters have arrived from out of town for their father's funeral. Book 1 focuses on Julia, who has just lost her job in New York and wants to help her mother and family with the consequences of their father's death. Julia meets single dad Cooper and his toddler Macey. The community is a wonderful small town and seems to help with the healing of the Owens family. I loved the plot and characters. Secrets have already come out in this first book, and I can't wait for the next book and what else we will discover.

This was a cute read about loss and family unity. Love the characters and their dynamics together. Just a sweet read. Rosewood Beach is a small community that welcomes new members graciously and looks out for each other ferociously. The Owens family are extremely likable and genuine. Just a great listen. The narrator was very good and I enjoyed this read.
Thank you Fiona Baker and Blue Nose Audio for the opportunity to listen to this ALC for my honest review.

Julie returns home to Rosewood Beach after the double-whammy of losing her job and finding out her dad died within hours. Cooper is a single dad looking to rebuild after his wife died suddenly, leaving him to raise their young daughter.
As she stays to help her mother out, they discover that her father was a hidden gambler, and the family restaurant was in danger of closing. Julie works with her brother, sister, mother, and Cooper to come up with a way to save the restaurant - but is it enough and in time to keep it from closing OR being bought out by a competitor?
Julie and her family are definitely close, and they work well together. This is the first book in a series and sets up at least 2 more entries focused on her sisters and their love lives. Will I read them? I don't know...I haven't decided yet. This was definitely a good read, but if I return to Rosewood Beach, it will be later on this year.

Another great family book
Fiona Baker certainly knows how to write a book about families. We got involved in the lives of so many members of this family. They all came together after the patriarch of the family passed away leaving his wife and their business in a perilous situation. It was a very warm story with a positive outcome.

This book is a strong entry into the women’s fiction category, straddling both family drama and romance. It aligns with current market trends that favor uplifting, heartfelt narratives with strong settings. The Lighthouse Grill and the beachside community are tailor made for readers who enjoy Susan Wiggs or Debbie Macomber. It has definite book club appeal.

sappy without substance
I finished it. Light enough reading but there’s no reality in this. Hallmark movie on steroids. A few problems that miraculously work out without really delving into anything. A two years old who goes from barely being able to say “Dad” to speaking in complete sentences abcs asking experience questions within weeks…

Actually horrible. I almost DNF’d it so many times but was committed to the bit. This was probably the most unorganized book I’ve ever read and there were so many grammatical errors in the first half it actually made me mad. The story line had zero depth and there were so many unnecessary details. Nothing happened? Needless to say, I will not be continuing the series lol

A Great Story about How Important Family Is. You will Love How Julia & Single Dad Cooper meet. It's so nice to be back Reading a Series of Fiona Baker's. I Look forward to Reading All of Them. I Highly Recommend ALL Fiona Baker's Books 🤗

a good, Fast read
Characters are real with the same issues we face everyday. Family relationships and strength are shown throughout the book. It was engaging enough that I read it in one sitting.

interesting concept
Interesting concept for a book series. Could have used some stronger editing and a faster pace. Sometimes the dialogue was too ‘wordy’ and took a few pages to make 1 statement.
This turned into a ‘speed read’ book.

Nice Read,
This was such a relaxing story. You felt a part of this town and main family. Of course the usual family dynamics but very entertaining!
