A Newport Sunrise — Cindy Nichols

Faith's life has been turned upside down, and she's not at all sure that's a good thing… With Jen and Carrie at the beach full time, it's gotten harder by the week for Faith to return to her job inland as a new life has been unfolding for her at the beach on the weekends. Her part time job at the boutique has taken more and more of her time as the owner becomes increasingly scarce. Her daughter, Maggy, has been visiting more frequently, with all the ups and downs that brings. Jen's son, Max, has been spending time in Newport as well, and Faith still holds out hope that Maggy and Max might end up together.  Jen wants the same, and the three friends do their best to throw the two together—not always with welcome results.Carrie's new relationship with Bethany requires a bit more from all three friends than they'd anticipated, but they're up for the challenge. A road trip is in order, and by the time they return home, everything has changed. Visit Newport Beach and sit on the deck for a while, watch the sunrise and enjoy one of Nana's muffins.  This is book 3 in the Newport Beach series. It can be read as a stand-alone story, but knowing the background details from books 1 and 2 will make it even more fun.  Read The Newport Beach Series:Newport Harbor HouseNewport BeginningsA Newport SunriseNewport New Moon NOTE: This series was previously published under my pen name, Cindy Caldwell.
