Sand Dollar Cove

Book excerpt: "Growing up, Elli Eversol spent nearly every summer in Sand Dollar Cove at her grandparents' beach house, working at their shops on the old fishing pier. After a hurricane and a Nor'easter damage the pier and the shops nearly beyond repair, Elli returns to town to help rebuild. She even launches the Buy-A-Board campaign to raise funds for the plight. Holden Moore is back in Sand Dollar Cove, too. He broke Elli's heart years ago, but he's pulling every Romeo trick in the book to win her back now. Yet there's more to Holden's agenda, and it doesn't include saving the pier. Brody Rankin is eager to scout the location for his company's new mega-warehouse near a quaint North Carolina beach town. The online request for handyman assistance for the Buy-A-Board campaign in Sand Dollar Cove gives him the perfect reason to head to the east coast, check out the area, and contribute to a good cause. He'd only have to leave half of his playboy-surfer lifestyle behind for a little while--there are plenty of waves in the Atlantic. But when he meets Elli Eversol, she really gets the surf up, and he's tempted to toss his playboy ways out with the tide."--Page 4 of cover.
