In the heartwarming conclusion of the Jenkins Quartet small-town romance, the youngest of four sisters gets her own chance at finding happy ever after.
Kat Jenkins returned home to small-town Lacey, Florida to escape a failed marriage and get her life back on track. She never considered balancing romance with raising an infant son, going to college, working, and planning for her future.
Lacey newcomer and attorney, Gabe Martinez helps free Kat from her marriage while judging her unconventional choices. Misunderstandings between them continue to ignite sparks. When Gabe realizes he wants more, he’ll have to make the argument of his life in order to join Kat’s little family.
Charity Jenkins always thought she had a romantic soul. She loves meeting new people, long walks on the beach and flirting. When her sisters and friends start pairing up with their love matches, she’s outwardly happy for them but surprised by her inner reaction. Fear overwhelms her. In the past fear has motivated her to climb mountains, start her freelance photography business, and travel the world. Not this time.
A newcomer to small-town Lacey, Florida, Palmer Reed desires Charity from the first moment he sees her sassy smile. Palmer teaches at the local high school and harbors a dream of a more creative life as a fantasy novelist.
After he convinces Charity to give casual connecting a chance, love follows. He’s willing to step outside his comfortable teacher’s life and chase her wherever she leads. Will his love be a match for her need for independence and adventure?
Serenity Jenkins lives a great life in her favorite place. Now that her sisters are (mostly) back in town and reconnecting, she knows she should be happy. Instead, she’s cranky and tired of being stuck in the rut of unrequited love for her best friend and boss.
Spencer Stone owns the restaurant-tavern in small-town Lacey. He’s worked to make a place where his community wants to spend their time when they aren’t enjoying the beach. Regulars come in several times a week for meals, a great game on above the bar and to connect with their neighbors. With his youngest brother finally off to college, Spencer is living alone and on his own schedule for the first time in his life.
He’s unprepared when Serenity changes everything. His best friend is acting erratic at best, distant at worst and while their new dynamic has its charms, he worries it may be too late to get back what they had.
Some people believe family is about duty, not love. Those same people disconnect and avoid attachments. Jules Jenkins wants to be one of those people. She’s tried for years to build separation and space in her life, making work and science her priority. When she’s in Lacey surrounded by her boisterous sisters and small-town community, staying detached becomes challenging.
