Book Description
Marcus "Bag Humbug" Winters is hiding from Christmas, and the rest of his life, when he gets an offer he can't refuse—the chance to photograph a top model with the enormous 70-karat Hartford Diamond. The Hartford Diamond shoot is also an answered prayer for set designer Larissa "I Love Christmas" Frost. But while she needs the job to pay for her brother's unexpected hospital bills, she does not need the headache of a demanding photographer who keeps calling her Larry. But when they finally meet on set, Larissa is unprepared for Marcus to be a hunk, for him to apologize profusely, or for the Hartford Diamond to be stolen. Now Marcus may be the only one who can keep Larissa from going to jail for a crime she didn't commit. For Larissa and Marcus, this Christmas is anything but a Winter Wonderland.

At the Seabreeze Inn, sisters Ivy and Shelly Bay discover boxes of vintage Christmas decorations in the old beach house.

The beach house is resplendent with old and new decorations, but this Christmas, sisters Ivy and Shelly discover another one of the former owner’s secrets. Soon, Ivy faces a decision that could change her life and those she loves. Bennett, the mayor of Summer Beach, asks the community to pitch in. Ginger Delavie from the nearby Coral Cottage contributes her favorite recipes, and Mitch from Java Beach helps in the kitchen. Dedicated to serving guests and helping them honor their various traditions, the Seabreeze Inn family welcomes the overflow from local families, the single guests who gather for a celebration of their own, and the loners who have nowhere else to go. However, while Bennett is usually happy to help, Ivy might have asked too much of him. This holiday season will test their relationship, especially when Ivy’s grown children voice their opinions. A Seabreeze Inn Christmas is a sweet, feel-good holiday saga in the beloved Summer Beach series. This novel can be read as a stand-alone story without having read the rest of the series.
