"Ten years after she left her hometown of Trove Isle, NC, Melody Palmer is back to receive an unexpected inheritance-her great aunt's thrift store, Hidden Treasures. There, in a glass case beneath the register, Melody spies the long-lost charm bracelet she shared with her high school friends, Liz and Bri, and her younger sister, Alyssa. After a devastating prom night accident, it disappeared, and the girls' friendship evaporated with it. Slipping the bracelet on her arm for safekeeping, Melody soon finds herself crossing paths with her former friends once more. While Melody fled, Liz has stayed in Trove Isle, helping with her parents' business instead of pursuing her photography goals. Guilt still weighs on her after that fateful night when they lost Alyssa. For Bri, the consequences were even more stark. After spiraling into self-destruction, Bri served four years in a women's state prison and is about to be released-but can Trove Isle ever feel like home again? Yet despite everything that's changed, the promise that the bracelet once held-of adventures, achievements, love, and lifelong friendship-hasn't quite faded. And together, they might yet find a way to reconcile their pasts and futures, one charm at a time . . ."--

"After a bad break-up and a health diagnosis of Lupus earlier this year, Savannah takes an impulsive trip to her favorite aunt's home, where she spent childhood summers. When she arrives, Savannah is surprised to see the house overflowing with books and the garden overflowing with roses. Aunt Eleanor recommends books to her visitors, including Savannah, which help them grow and blossom-just like the flowers she nurtures with so much care. While soul-searching among her aunt's blooms, Savannah stumbles upon her first love-all grown up and more handsome than ever. Evan Sanders has reluctantly agreed to build a gazebo for Eleanor in preparation for the annual gardening contest. This is his first full summer with his daughter after his wife passed away, and he needs to fill it with enough love to make up for all the summers he's missed out on. As Savannah sits in the garden and reads the books that Eleanor handpicks for her, she finds healing and self-discovery in the pages. But is it enough to convince Savannah to risk a second chance with Evan?"--

"The Thursday night book club is back! As all the members join Tess at her book shop, talk turns from this month's selection to the mayor's plan to expand a local park. While it sounds good in theory, it requires the local cafe to relocate from its wonderful location on the lakefront, and it's hard to be in favor of that. Tess's best friend, Moira, is a member of the book club, of course, and she's determined to lead the charge against the new plan. But the book club members exchange looks because Moira always seems to have a beef with the mayor. They think that she might protest too much. Gil Ryan is proud to be the mayor of Somerset Lake. He grew up here and loves the friendly, down-to-earth people and the natural beauty of the place. So when a proposal comes up to expand a lakeside park, he supports it. Even if it requires the tough choice of relocating a popular local business. And even if someone he secretly cares a great deal about is in direct opposition to the plan. Even while at odds, everywhere that Moira turns, Gil is there, trying to win her over. But she's beginning to suspect that he's not just debating local politics. He's also trying to win her heart"--
