It's always fun to catch up with all the Stony Point crew. My heart aches for Maris and Jason while I cheer on Kyle and Lauren for making it through the quagmire of life. Celia and Shane are a surprise, and It's good to see her happy after Sal.
I was a bit disappointed with the reveal of the contents of the certified letter Elsa received in the last book. I expected it to be a more serious isdue, but I guess time will tell. Joanne has s,way of building anticipation for the continuing saga. It's hard to wait for the next story in the Seaside Saga!
I received a free ARC eBook from Net Galley and the publisher in exchange for my honest opinions.

The Beachgoers (The Seaside Saga #13) by Joanne DeMaio reveals the contents of Elsa's certified letter that had been kept secret in the previous book. Her plans for the boat eco-tours through the marshlands have been denied by the Stony Point zoning committee. So, Elsa has postponed the grand opening of the Ocean Star Inn until this issue can be resolved. The long-awaited night does not disappoint the party because Elsa arranged for Lauren and Kyle to have a vow renewal ceremony on the beach. The description of the beautiful night on the beach is lovely.
In The Beachgoers, there are more passages from the past. The accident that killed Neil and injured Jason is explained. The past conflicts between Lauren and Kyle are resolved and lead to their marriage continuing as planned.
Jason and Maris are still having difficulties. Maris feels that Jason smoothly moved from their home to Ted's house with no problems. It didn't seem to her that Jason had any second thoughts about moving out.
All the characters are friends and have interwoven events in their past that will always link them to each other. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
Thank you to NetGalley, Joanne DeMaio, and the publisher for an opportunity to read this book.
