Coral Cafe by Jan Moran Pdf

A beach cafe. An event to remember. The summer heats up with friendship and fun. From a USA Today bestselling author. "A fun read that grabs you at the start." — Tina Sloan When Marina Moore decides to expand her farmer's market and pop-up dinner business, the next step is a cafe on the shores of Summer Beach. But challenges loom, and Marina must quickly become more creative than ever, especially when her children need help. Her sister Kai's position with a musical theater troupe forces more changes. Their sister Brooke is having marital challenges, while grandmother Ginger continues to contribute her advice on the life well-lived—if only her granddaughters will listen. Meanwhile, writer Jack Ventana stumbles onto more old secrets in Summer Beach, and his overgrown Labrador retriever puppy Scout manages to dig his way into trouble on the beach. When the status quo changes between Jack and Marina, their budding romance is threatened. Join the fun once again in Summer Beach, where the bonds of friendship and love prove unbreakable. From the USA Today bestselling author of the bestselling Seabreeze Inn at Summer Beach book series, the Coral Cafe is a new chapter on the sunny coastline. Reviews "Jan Moran is a favorite author of mine. All in all a fun read which grabs you at the start." — Tina Sloan, Author of Changing Shoes, Award-Winning Actress (Guiding Light, and other films and television) "Jan's books never disappoint me. When I pick one up, I know it will be a fun read with wonderful characters. The women will be intelligent businesswomen and loyal to their families and friends. There will be sweet romances. It is refreshing to have a series in which not all the central characters are "Barbie doll" types in their 20s. In Coral Cottage, Marina Moore is 40ish while the delightful, yet mysterious Ginger is nearly 80. The perfect beach or weekend read." — B.J.'s Reviews
