Story
The sparkling seaside village of Merle Bay, with its beautiful beach scattered with sea glass, is a place where anyone can have a fresh start. For Katie, it is the perfect hideout after a childhood trauma left her feeling exposed. For Robyn, the fresh sea air is helping to heal her scars, but maybe not her marriage. For Grace, a new start could help her move on from a heartbreaking loss. When they meet on Sea Glass Beach one day, they form an instant bond and soon they're sharing prosecco, laughter—and even their biggest secrets...

Christmas has always meant something special to Merry - even without a family of her own. This year, her heart might be broken but her new candle business is booming. The last thing she needs is another project - but when her hometown's annual event needs some fresh festive inspiration, Merry can't resist. Cole loves a project too - though it's usually of the bricks and mortar variety. As a single dad, his Christmas wish is to see his kids again, so getting the new house finished for when they're all together is the perfect distraction.

Enjoyable but...
Story was good but I feel that there was a lot of 'filler' to make it four books.
Really enjoyed the continuation of charters from previous series. All in all a enjoyable story.
Some where midway through the audible version the volume went completely. But it picked up again later.

Poor Story
Cathy Bramley usually writes more convincingly than in this book. The story is a jerky moving one that drops major events into the lives of the characters with unconvincing responses and then jumps to another event.
The main character is poorly written and her ‘misunderstandings’ of comments and situations are totally unbelievable
The characters are unidimensional and unreal. It was hard to finish this book.
The narrator was excellent
