The Inn on Harmony Island
by Anne-Marie Meyer
read by Liz Krane
Part 1 of the Sweet Tea & Southern Gentleman series
I stupidly call the single dad living next door in the middle of the night when I hear scratching at my front door. In the middle of my explanation, I realize how ridiculous I sound, so I hang up.
Suddenly, my front door bursts open and he comes in shirtless, with his pajamas slung low on his hips and a baby monitor clipped to his pocket.
He crosses the room and picks me up. I protest, but... He growls and says: "I can't protect you and my daughter in separate houses, so you're coming with me."

Part 2 of the Sweet Tea & Southern Gentleman series
I finally got Shelby back into my life and I'll be damned if I lose her again. I'll find a way to make everyone happy...I have to.
Shelby
I thought I was getting stronger, but now, I'm not so sure. Tamara is back in Miles' life and I want to say that it doesn't affect us--that he loves me and that is all that should matter--but every time I see Belle, I see myself. I would give anything to change the circumstance of my childhood and if there's a chance that Miles and Tamara can make it work, I wouldn't forgive myself if I stood in their way.
Miles thinks there's a way for everyone to be happy...but I'm not so sure. And I don't think it's a risk I'm willing to take.
Abigail
I thought I was content with my life. My business is booming. I have a boyfriend. Sabrina is coming out of the darkness that seemed to have taken over her since Samuel's birth. But for some reason, I'm not happy.
I blame Bash.
I hate that he's randomly showing up at the shop as if he's trying to protect me. I hate that he's in their kitchen apartment, shirtless, with a dark, hooded look in his eyes, while Anders in distracted by videos games and beer in his room. But I really hate that when I need someone the most, Bash is the one that shows up to help me.
And when I find out what he did for Sabrina? I hate him even more.
This story is told through 4 different points of view. Shelby, Miles, Abigail, and Bash. It's a story of romance and friendships between women. If you liked the Netflix show, Sweet Magnolias, you'll love this series!

Godwin's Grocery

Part 4 of the Sweet Tea & Southern Gentleman series
I never moved on. I tried, but I couldn't. I will spend my entire life loving her even if she's determined to leave me. She's Juliet and I'm Romeo.
Claire
Just when things between mom and I seem to be getting better, Rose has a scare that lands her in the hospital. So I pack up my bags and head to the only place I can think of that will take me and a pregnant dog in…Jax.
Of course, he answers the door in just a towel with his hair damp and his chest glistening from water droplets. I regain my senses and ask him for a place to stay while I sort out my life. He agrees, his only condition: I work my room and board off at his pub.
Seems easy enough. Until I see just how popular he is with the ladies and I hate that those pesky twinges of jealousy rise up in my chest when I see him enjoying that attention.
One drunken night, I ask Jax if his lips feel the same as they did when we were dating as teens. His gaze turns dark as he stares at me and asks, "Do you want me to kiss you, Claire?"
I know how our story ends. I've lived it before. Fate doesn't want us together. Ever.
Juniper
I'm determined to put my life with Steve behind me. I haven't told my parents what happened with Steve. My black eye speaks volumes all on its own.
When Steve calls me and says he's sorry for what he did and wants to talk, I agree. It's the least I can do. Mom and dad don't want
me to go, but I'm an adult, I can make these decisions on my own. Until mom suggests that I take the new hire with me. His name is Boone and he looks like he belongs on the battlefield, not stocking shelves.
Not wanting to start a fight, I agree. But when Boone doesn't leave my side, my parents plan starts to unfold. In the small town of Harmony Island, they found me a bone fide bodyguard.
My future doesn't include Steve until…it does.

Wrong.
Not only has our relationship fundamentally changed, but he disappears for a month and comes back to Harmony, engaged.
Gloria insists that I write the expose on their wedding. Ashers fiancee is the daughter of the Mayor of New York City. Its the kind of story that will restore the towns trust in the paper after the Proctor disaster.

Willow
I didnt think Cole Watkins would come back to the diner. Id almost forgotten about him and his contract until he shows up a month later, ready to take his place as co-owner.
I hate that I have to answer to this man. This diner was my chance to make a new life for my son and Cole is getting in the way of that.
Until Jasper is sick and Cole hands me a container of homemade chicken noodle soup that he made. Or when Im tired, and Cole takes over in a way my ex never did. And when hes playing cars with my son? I feel my resolve to hate him forever start to soften.
Aas soon as I try to get closer to him, to learn about the man under the suit, he shuts me down. In that moment, I realize Cole is not here to be my friend. I need to protect myself and my son. Ive been hurt once and Im determined to never get hurt again.

Part 7 of the Sweet Tea & Southern Gentleman series
If Willow thinks she can scare me off, she's wrong.
Harmony is quickly becoming my home...
And so is she.
Willow
I told myself that Jasper and I would just stay the night with Cole. One night to sleep in a bed and take a hot shower, then we'd be on our way.
But one night turns into more and suddenly, I discover what my marriage should have been like with Harold.
What a family could feel like.
Until I wake up to find that Jasper is missing and so is Cole, a phone call later and I find out that my son decided to be a stowaway with Cole's impromptu trip back to Miami.
Now I'm in a big city, discovering Cole's world.
I want to ignore the stark difference between his life and mine, but I already had my heart broken once by ignoring red flags.
I'm determined not to have that happen again.
Sabrina
My life is finally turning around.
After experiencing the worst depression, I can finally see the light again.
I have a job. I have ambition. I have hope.
If only Abigail would stop living in the past, she might actually see that I've changed too.
I'm ready for some consistency when the very inconsistent Liam shows up at the library and decides that I am his person of interest.
He's flirty. He's fun. He's dangerous.
He tells me he can give me the freedom I crave.
I try to stay the course.... until I realize the course I'm on isn't mine, it's Abigail's.
I want to rediscover who I am, but I'm starting to believe that's impossible while living under Abigail's roof.
