Seaview Inn

By Sherryl Woods

New York Times bestselling author Sherryl Woods proves home can be found where you least expect it. 

Hannah Matthews is undeniably tough–a single mom, a top–tier PR exec, a breast cancer survivor. She prides herself on being go–to Hannah, who can handle any crisis. But with her grandmother balking at going into a retirement home, her daughter unexpectedly pregnant and an old flame suddenly underfoot, Hannah is facing a few crises of her own. And being back home on Seaview Key is definitely adding to the stress. 

Luke Stevens understands crisis. While serving in Iraq, his wife dumped him for his best friend–with whom Luke shares his medical practice. Seaview Key seems like the perfect place to hide out for a while. The last thing he expects is to fall in love…with his old hometown and with Hannah. 

Sometimes, though, the unexpected is just what it takes to heal the heart.

Reviews for Seaview Inn

[susan0316 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Hannah is a strong New York advertising director, single mother and breast cancer survivor. She feels like she can handle everything on her own. After her mother dies from breast cancer, she goes to Seaview Inn, the bed and breakfast that her mother and grandmother own in Florida to close it down and send her grandmother to a nursing home. Her grandmother has other plans for her and the book is a struggle to see if Hannah can learn to relax and learn to love again. There is also a sub plot about her daughter and her unplanned pregnancy. Its a great romantic read and keeps you interested until the end. Great to read at the beach or curled up next to the fire on a snowy afternoon.

A very interesting story by Woods and first in the Seaview Key Series with memorable characters with three generations of strong women (Grandma Jenny), Hannah (daughter and mother-recovering from breast cancer, PR executive in NY), and Kelsey (pregnant daughter dropping out of Stanford and now pregnant).
I have read many of Sherryl Woods’ books and this was one of her best.

I was attracted to the B&B inn since I have worked with inn and hotel clients for many years, handling their marketing. All three are at a cross roads (Grandma wants to reopen the inn and is full of spunk), Hannah would is single and meets her old high school sweetheart (Luke-loved him) has returned to Seaview and teaches her about more than work; and Kelsey realizes she loves innkeeping and marketing and helping her grandmother.

The audio version was excellent and the narrator did an excellent job! Looking forward to reading (Home to Seaview Inn #2) coming 1/26/2014.
