It is important to realize that I review and rate books for myself alone. I don't mind anyone else reading them and choosing books based on my likes and dislikes. And although, in some cases (those books that I feel touch the very soul and essence of life) I might almost become radical in my insistence that you read a book, I would never tell you NOT to read a book. The books I don't particular like have everything to do with me - the books that I love have everything to do with the author.

And with that disclaimer I say that this genre of book is definitely not my thing. References to tight sweaters, rippling abs and pouty lips leave me yawning. Well maybe no one actually had pouty lips - but it WAS set to the music backdrop of "The Lion sleeps tonight".

There were some interesting points - which kept me from giving it the dreaded 1 star: I liked the reference to specific architectural aspects and styles. It caused me to learn a bit more about the Don Cesar hotel in St. Petersburg.  But these same points were also run unmercifully into the ground. If I ever hear the term loggia again I just might pout.

Three women find an unexpected sisterhood in this perfect beach read from the USA Today bestselling author of Best Beach Ever and My Ex-Best Friend's Wedding. Madeline, Avery, and Nikki are strangers to each other, but they have one thing in common. They each wake up one morning to discover that their life savings have vanished along with their trusted financial manager—leaving them with nothing but co-ownership of a ramshackle beachfront house. Madeline Singer is a homemaker coping with empty-nest syndrome and an unemployed husband. Avery Lawford is an architect, or was, until she somehow became the sidekick on her ex-husband’s TV show. And professional matchmaker Nikki Grant is trying to recover from her biggest mistake... Throwing caution to the wind, the three women take on the challenge of restoring the historic beach house to its former glory. But just as they begin to reinvent themselves and discover the power of friendship, their secrets threaten to tear down their trust and destroy their lives a second time...
