Moonrise Inn

Will love pull them together, or will their dreams pull them apart? Travel influencer Mallory Robson has built her brand-and her life-on the thrill of the next adventure. As the cheerful face of Sunshine in a Suitcase, she's mastered the art of never staying in one place too long. But when top travel brand Wanderlove sends her to picturesque Seasalter, Rhode Island, to compete for the role of host on their new TV show, Mallory knows she'll have to give it everything she's got. Carter Scott, creator of Man Cave Adventures, has been around the world many times over as the son of diplomats. Now, he's longing for a permanent address and a little peace. If he wins the gig of hosting the travel show, the paycheck will help him finally buy a home-and he's surprised to find the charm of Seasalter tempting him to put down roots. There's just one problem: Wanderlove wants Mallory and Carter to work together to document the coastal Christmas season, as a co-audition. Worse, a booking mishap-and no vacancies in town-means they're sharing a room at the Moonrise Inn. As their opposite worldviews merge on camera-and spark an undeniable attraction off camera-Mallory and Carter are forced to ask themselves: Can there be common ground for a man who wants to put down roots and a woman who needs to fly?

WHEN LOVE MEANS TAKING A CHANCE A decade ago, Ana Capuano was the golden girl of Seasalter High-the ambitious and unstoppable valedictorian. But law school broke her, and now she's stuck in a life that feels like a shadow of what should have been. She's convinced she's a failure with nothing to offer to anyone, much less a romantic partner. Roman Montgomery was the school's star athlete who operated with an effortless charm. But watching his father walk out and seeing his brother's marriage crumble convinced him that love is a disaster waiting to happen. To protect himself-and any woman who dares get close to him-he keeps romance at arm's length. Now, fate throws Ana and Roman back together at the enchanting, newly opened Moonrise Inn when they return home for the wedding of their best friends. But when the nuptials are abruptly canceled, they find themselves caught in the middle of their friends' resentful breakup, their loyalties tested. Ana and Roman can't ignore the crackling tension and undeniable chemistry between them. Acting on their feelings means risking their friends' disapproval-and taking a chance on the kind of love they both swore they'd never trust.
