The Inn at Cherry Blossom Lane

By Jennifer Crosswhite

Can the summer magic of Lake Michigan bring first loves back together? Or will the secret they discover threaten everything they love?

 

Claire's beloved grandma wants to turn her historic home and property into a bed-and-breakfast in one of Michigan's most popular tourist towns and have Claire run it, which had always been Claire's dream.

 

Claire's best memories came from spending summers at her grandma's: days at Lake Michigan, bonfires at night, and through it all, the company of the boy next door, Alex Wilder. What started out as friendship deepened into a heady first love. Until Claire left for college. 

 

Unbeknownst to Claire, Grandma has also hired Alex to do the construction work. Alex needs this job and the others it could bring if he wants to take his construction company to the next level. He never quite got over Claire, but he can keep his heart locked away long enough to do this job.

 

Claire has landed a big destination wedding for their grand opening. With only weeks to finish the project, the old house gives up a secret: a hidden room and a diary written by a once-famous actress. Claire's history-loving heart is thrilled, but the discovery has the potential to derail the project. Can she keep an antsy bride placated, history buffs at bay, and resist Alex's charms all while getting the B-and-B ready to open? And could the story behind the secret room put her family in danger?
