The Inn on Harmony Island

Sweet Tea and a Southern Gentleman, Book 1

De: Anne-Marie Meyer

Narrado por: Liz Krane

It's the moment that Harmony Island has been waiting for: the reading of Charlotte Cane's will.

After I returned to my small hometown six months ago to attend my estranged grandmother's funeral, I swore I would never go back. That is, until my grandmother's lawyer calls me up. If I don't return to Harmony Island and fulfill my grandmother's stipulations, the generationally owned family inn will be turned over to the state and sold off to the highest bidder—my grandmother's rival and mother to the man who broke my heart, Missy Willis.

I'm not sure I'm strong enough to return home, but I also know, I can't let Miss Willis win. So I pack up my belongings and head for North Carolina.

I'm determined to stay distant, living in the small cottage next to the inn, and keep my head down. But in a small town where everyone knows your name, that becomes difficult. Soon, my past catches up with me, and I'm faced with the history I've buried for so long. Just when I reach my breaking point, Miles, the single dad living at the inn, swoops in to my life to rescue me. He was my protector in my childhood, my enemy in my teenage years, and now?

Now, I'm not so sure. Especially when his love for his daughter is contagious, or the way he looks at me when he doesn't know I see him. I'm so confused, and I want to run away like I did in the past, but I can't. And when Miles touches me like that...I don't want to.

Luckily, I find a friend in Abigail, the local bookstore owner. She's one of the only residents who doesn't know about my past and seems to be looking for the same thing I am, a place to belong.

The Inn on Harmony Island is chock full of romance, redemption, and forgiveness. If you're looking for your next summer story, grab your copy today! It is the first book in the Sweet Tea and a Southern Gentleman series and ends on a cliff-hanger.

saw this book on Instagram

Saw this book come up on my Instagram feed. I immediately signed up for audible and I'm here to stay for other novels by this author!

What

I hate books that leave everything so open ended. Not the best I’ve ever listened.

wasn't what I expected

I originally ordered the book because of snip-it the author posted on tik tok. But I still really enjoyed it! How could she end it like that ughhh! Now I have to wait till the next book. Hopefully that's soon.

I will admit I was confused by the multiple character story lines within the story. And I couldn't quite catch on to any major character development. But also keep in mind it is a short book and I imagine and hope with book 2 that it all ties together.ill admit I was confused by the multiple character story lines within the story.

ehh

the story was kind of confusing at first with so many charaters and having independent timelines but also no resolution to any of the forthcoming feelings just a confusing cliffhanger

Cute

Cute story but the cut off at the ending was a little disappointing. I didn’t realize it was a series but that ok. I’ll keep reading it.
