Publisher's Description
Who doesn't love a second chance? When Mallory Farrell inherits her grandmother's run-down tourist shop in Portside, Oregon, she knows selling it is the only sensible thing to do. The place holds treasured memories for her, but it would take a fortune to restore it. But when she learns that her childhood crush, Grayson Matthews, wants to buy the building to redevelop the funky town's business district into a soulless, cookie-cutter outdoor mall, Mallory digs in her heels. With a lot of hard work and a little bit of help, she is sure she can renovate the property herself. Though Mallory makes incredible progress turning the store into an eclectic home decor shop, she's heartbroken when an exciting opportunity turns into a guaranteed nightmare. Should she surrender her dreams to Grayson's bulldozers? Or is there a future for both of them in this charming seaside town?

“A delightful read, like all of Melody’s novels. The engaging characters, whose good intentions get twisted into trouble by others less honorable, kept me reading later than I’d planned. A glorious setting in California wine country, a family business in danger of going under, and emotionally real characters dealing with life combine to yield a memorable novel.”
“This story is as sweet and spunky as the title. Melody is gifted at creating characters and settings right out of a Hallmark movie. Enter this charming world and you’ll find yourself believing in fresh starts right along with Dillon.”
