On a tiny island in a ramshackle beach house, Meg, an heiress, is hiding from her family's dubious past. Her true love, Evan, died thirty years ago in a storm at sea, or so she thought. Did her father really have her lover killed and if so, does everyone on the island know about it but Meg?
Alex is determined to win Meg over and if that means befriending her son Jon, he's game. Although with his past history with women, he wonders why he even tries. After all, he's just a starving artist with little to offer her.
Now that Alex has warmed her heart again, Meg realizes she has friends who care and a life outside her garden. But in order to enjoy it, she must first figure out who is blackmailing her.

This is the first book by Peggy Chambers that I've read and I'm so glad I picked it up. It's a wonderful romance, weaving around a mystery, inside a perfect summer beach read. Meg, Evan and Alex are the stars of the romance. The mystery starts on page 1 with the murder of Evan. These characters reside on a picture perfect island setting that I'd love to visit. Pick this for your beach blanket vacation read.

Meg lives a quiet, reserved life in a small cottage on Sandhill Island. Meg doesn’t socialize with the other residents of Sandhill Island. She lives a lonely life. But Meg is happy with the way things are. Her life consists of working in her garden and then taking the bounty from her garden to town to sell. Meg didn’t think anything was missing from her life. Until she met Alex. As the friendship between Meg and Alex grows, ghosts from Meg’s past begin to threaten Meg’s peaceful existence.
I enjoyed this book so much! Ms. Chambers is an excellent storyteller. The characters in her book are real and relatable. I am anxious to read more from the talented author.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
