‘Love at Cape Luella’ is book 5 in the Forever Safe Summer II Series.
Naiva Aisley grew up in her parents’ B&B in Cape Luella on the Atlantic shoreline. Working at the B&B since she was old enough to carry things for her mother, she’d always felt like an outsider looking in on the wealthy tourists who flocked to the island each year.
Over the years, she’d watched one particular guest, Jack Noch, from a distance. His family owned a vacation home down the shore from the B&B, so she’d had plenty of opportunities to see the boy who grew into an even more drool-worthy man. Not only was Jack gorgeous but his family was one of the wealthiest of those who visited Cape Luella. Unfortunately, her body and heart wouldn’t accept what her mind knew — Harrison Jackson Noch III was way out of her league.
Harrison Jackson Noch III, Jack to his friends, hated going on family vacations. It took him away from his computers and the work he loved. However, the visits to Cape Luella were bearable because he got to see Naiva from the B&B down the shore. A girl who became a woman who was always out of his reach, yet he couldn’t stop wanting to catch her.
