Love Redone in Hidden Harbor (Island County Book 2)

Natalie Jennings loves nothing more than waking up and going into work at the florist shop she owns in the heart of Fireweed Island. Every morning is pleasant and filled with sunshine and rainbows. That is until she sees an email for a wedding consult slide right into her inbox with the sender’s name of Cole Hill. Her hands get clammy and the cold winter’s day suddenly feels like it’s ninety degrees and climbing. It couldn’t be the same Cole Hill from high school. The universe isn’t that cruel. But as she opens the email and reads the message, she realizes that it is, indeed, the Cole Hill from high school, and it is the universe’s turn to not only be cruel but downright evil. Cole broke her heart, but not in the normal fashion. He ensured the process was a long one filled with plenty of ups and downs. It all started in first grade and didn’t finally end until the second year of college. And now he is coming back to get married on Fireweed Island. The perks of being the only florist in town! It’s a good thing she got over him years ago... **From the Author Thank you for taking the time to read about Love Redone and trying out the sample. If it's a good fit for your reading style, I hope you have a blast reading about Natalie, Pickles, Sophie, and Cole. All books in the Island County Series can be read as stand-alone stories, but the characters you get to know and love will always be making appearances throughout the series. Anyone who is familiar with the Beyond Love Series will also recognize characters and hear updates on their lives as well. It's been a lot of fun! Many thanks for checking out the Island County Series and Happy Reading!
