Author Description

On the sun-drenched shores of Florida's Captiva Island, Maggie Moretti's Key Lime Garden Inn has become a sanctuary for those seeking a fresh start. When Merritt Ryan arrives with a guitar case and a heart heavy with secrets--a canceled wedding and a terminally ill mother back in Maine, she never expects to find healing among the island's gentle rhythms and open-hearted residents. Lauren and her family finally move to Florida, but not without internal struggles that threaten her relationship with Maggie. Meanwhile, the construction of the Captiva Café brings unexpected discoveries for co-owners Isabelle and Gretchen, as archaeological finds beneath the floorboards create both complications and connections. As their paths intertwine with Maggie's YouTube-famous mother, a reluctantly romantic newspaper editor, and a community that embraces second chances, these women discover that life's most meaningful journeys often begin when carefully laid plans fall apart. Captiva Café is a heartwarming story about the courage to choose yourself, the healing power of community, and the endless possibility of beginning again--at any age.
