The Island Inn (Amberjack Shores #1)

Three generations of women. Two weeks at the beach. One decision that changes everything.

When Becca Dalton inherits part of a coastal Florida resort from the husband who abandoned her twenty-four years ago, she intends to sell her share quickly and return to her carefully constructed life as a corporate attorney. The last thing she needs is to get tangled up with the family her ex left behind.

But Amberjack Shores—with its charming beachfront cottages, historic inn, and struggling fishing business—awakens something in Becca she thought long buried. As she reluctantly works to revitalize the business, she finds herself drawn to both the stunning coastal property and the complicated family that calls it home.

Meanwhile, Becca's artistic daughter Katie finds herself swept into an unexpected romance with local photographer Jake, whose laid-back approach to life challenges everything she thought she wanted. Between crashing weddings, surfing lessons, and moonlit beach walks, Katie begins questioning the rigid path she's always followed.

As mother and daughter imagine new possibilities at Amberjack Shores, the long-buried secrets surrounding Chris Dalton's disappearance begin to surface. With her heart newly open to love and belonging, Becca must confront the mysteries of her ex-husband's past—a past that threatens to unravel the fragile new connections she's only just begun to trust.

In this captivating first novel of the Amberjack Shores series, Laura Abbott delivers an emotional beach read about second chances, family bonds, and finding where you truly belong. Perfect for fans of Hope Holloway, Cecelia Scott, and Pamela Kelley.
