She came to the beach to write…

And started a whole new chapter of life.

Jenna, a single mom and successful author, has five weeks to deliver her next young adult novel to the publisher. This year's summer getaway with her kids will be a working vacation.

The only problem? Lucas, the devil-may-care surfer in the beach rental next to hers. He cranks up his music at night, hosts loud volleyball matches, and allows his dog to run around at will.

Jenna often blames him for her writer's block. But over beach bonfires and sunset strolls, she begins to see a new side of her neighbor at the shore.

This funny, emotional romance includes a free Hallmark original recipe for Grilled Garlic Shrimp.
