Lantern Bay - Series Box Set

Welcome to Lantern Bay, a fishing town on the Oregon coast where everyone knows your business, the Boathouse serves the best clam chowder north of Tillamook, and every October the whole town sends paper lanterns out over the harbor to mark the turning of the year. It is also where three pairs of best friends are about to learn that the love of their lives has been sitting next to them all along. In SLACK WATER, Cal Mercer walks away from his wedding three weeks early and moves into the spare room above the bookshop owned by his best friend, Theo Lindqvist. Theo has quietly loved Cal since they were sixteen. One power outage and one shared bed later, Cal is twenty-nine and questioning everything he thought he knew about himself. In CROSSCURRENT, single dad Mack Okafor offers his garage apartment to Rafe Castellano, his college roommate, whose Portland restaurant just went under. Rafe also happens to be the man Mack kissed at nineteen and never mentioned again. Pancakes, bedtime stories and one very perceptive eight-year-old make it hard for Mack to keep pretending, and a big job offer in Seattle means time is running out. In HARBOR LIGHTS, stoic deputy Wes Hadley and sunshine bartender Nico Adair are stuck together as co-best-men for Cal and Theos lighthouse wedding. The trouble is the kiss Wes swore didnt mean anything, a retired-sheriff father with strong opinions, and a winter storm that will force Wes to say the truest thing he knows in front of the whole town. This complete collection holds all three 25,000-word novellas: roughly 75,000 words of slow-burn yearning, emotional bi-awakening arcs, open-door heat, laugh-out-loud small-town meddling and three swoon-worthy happily-ever-afters. Each couple gets its own book, and past couples return in every story, so the series ends with the whole found family together on the pier.
