Publisher's summary

A jilted bride. A struggling innkeeper. And a romantic mountain getaway that changes everything.

Rising Hollywood star Mia Emerson is looking for a safe place to land in the wake of a public breakup and celebrity scandal, and she finds it in the lake town of Bluebell, North Carolina - the location of her canceled honeymoon. She wants nothing more than to hide and wait for the tabloids to die down.

Soon after her arrival at the Bluebell Inn, Mia meets Levi Bennett, who runs the inn along with his two younger sisters. Drawn to one another from the start, Mia trusts Levi to keep her location from the press, and Levi confides in Mia about the precarious financial state of the inn - a secret he's been keeping from his sisters.

When Mia and Levi discover an old journal that hints at a rare diamond necklace hidden in the inn, they set off on a treasure hunt to find the long-lost heirloom. What they don't expect to surface are feelings they thought were safely locked away. Mia and Levi must decide if falling in love again is too big a risk - or if it will uncover a treasure of its own instead.

"A breeze of brilliance! Denise Hunter's Carolina Breeze will blow you away with a masterful merge of mystery, chemistry, and memories restored in this lakeside love story of faith, family, and fortune." (Julie Lessman, award-winning author)

BEST STORY YET!

Great plot, wonderful narrative, sweet, tender, moving. Touched on a lot of difficult topics and really resonated with me. If a love story can also act as a message and call to Christ, this one does just that.

Easy and fun!

If you’re looking for a sweet story with a few twists, this is the one for you!!

The story was amazing

I really enjoyed This book it had a great storyline. I also enjoyed the characters and how the author used them. It’s great also great to have a Christian story with great morals. It was a pleasure pleasure to read.

Awesome.

This book was a fun read, I love the location, The descriptions of the location brought in right there to enjoy the Town, the Inn and the lake. the characters are lovable and strong. The romance in the book was just right, there was just enough hint of mystery.
It’s a Great Book!

Narrator

I Was not impressed by the narrator whatsoever at all but the story was great!

Good story, bad narration

Good story, just what it sounds like - easy read/beach read/chick-lit. Has all the right pieces and parts and enjoyable throughout.

I've seen a lot of comments on monotone narrators in reviews. I've listened to hundreds of books and tend to disagree with those reviews most of the time. This one though was a doozy. The narrator was SO MONOTONE. At times it was hard to figure out which character was talking because they all had the same voice. She really took away from the story. I liked the story enough to keep going, but would recommend reading this one, not listening (with this narrator at least).

So disapponited

I'm trying to get thorough this book, but the author has put JUST WAY TOO MANY PROBLEMS, DISASTERS, ISSUES ONE AFTER THE OTHER, and it's so frustrating! There are books I can push through when things just get nuts, but I'm about to stop this one. So much character speculation, misunderstandings not cleared up and so no real life. The poor actor character's storyline only goes down hill. No light at the end of the tunnel. It will probably try and resolve like that last 20 min of the book, which I hate too. Ugg. also the Narrator is way to dull.
