A Room for Four

From the quaint shores of Azure Cove, a dream and a derelict inn I never knew I'd inherit. Driftwood Dreams Inn, a relic of the past, holding untold potential beneath layers of time's forgetfulness. With sketchpad in hand, I imagined a new beginning, a fresh start. Danny, my steadfast rock, stood by me, offering support, love, and the helping hands of his three best friends: Dylan, Logan, and Ryder.

Dylan, a master of his craft, his carpentry skills as breathtaking as his intense gaze. Together, we discovered the inn's structural secrets, the thrill of our shared passion making my heart race. Unbeknownst to me, beneath his calm demeanor and subtle flirtations, his affection for me simmered.

Logan, his charisma is as palpable as his financial prowess. His wit infused our banter, and his infectious charm warmed my heart. But his intent was more than a casual camaraderie; it was a protective shield, a promise to keep me from financial ruin.

Then came Ryder, a quiet storm with a vision as captivating as the sea. His blueprint for the overgrown garden echoed my own dreams - a blooming haven for guests, a paradise reborn. Amid shared smiles and deep conversations, his feelings for me flourished like the garden he promised to create.

Their dedication promised the restoration of Driftwood Dreams Inn. But beneath the professional camaraderie, unspoken feelings began to brew. At the end of the day, alone with my thoughts, I found myself caught in a whirlwind of emotions for these three men, my brother's friends, each vying for a piece of my heart. But the heart, like the inn, was an intricate maze, full of hidden rooms and secret corridors. Could I navigate its labyrinth before it's too late? Or will I lose myself in the tempest?

poorly developed plot line

it makes no sense. the plot is poorly developed. some guy called a contractor criticizes them once and makes everyone upset, some realtor threatens to take their project away once, and "won't stop until he gets what he wants". but they are not explained nor do they actually drive the plot. needs a rewrite.

not for me

it was slow and skipped things. I didn't finish it. nothing to do with virtual talk I do text to talk all the time

It repeats itself

The chapters seem to be out of order. It repeats sentiments without development of why & the scenes are not completed. I kept asking myself why? What? How? The characters have an “unspoken understanding” but at some point tell the reader.
