After darkness, there will always be light. A new beginning. Gen is more than ready to step up to her new role as Maddie's mother. The way that Maddie became Gen's daughter doesn't matter, just that she is. But just as Gen is wrapping her mind around her new role and embracing all things girly and pink, Gen gets a delicious surprise. However, as wonderful as this surprise is, can their brand new family handle any more change? Rich's betrayal tore Deb apart, but Deb now feels stronger because of what she endured--not that she'd ever thank Rich for the hell he put her through. Now a newer, stronger Deb is ready to jump back into the world of dating in the same way as any twenty-first century woman: online. As her best friend, Bess feels cautious about Deb's decision. But when Deb sees the handsome picture of the first man the site has ready for her, there's no talking Deb out of it. She is going to date ... and she's going to date that guy. Olivia is growing and moving on ... literally. She moves from her parents' home to rent the backyard cottage of none other than Dean Haskell--the saint of a man who has saved Olivia more than once. And although she senses her feelings of attraction growing for the man and thinks he might possibly feel the same way about her, Olivia knows the baggage she carries is still too fresh and heavy for anyone to deal with. Especially a man who deserves the world, like Dean. So against every female cell in Olivia's body, she decides that she and Dean will just be friends. Bess feels like her world has finally been righted. Her food truck is thriving, her children are moving forward, and her friends are doing well. After months of trying to decide what was best for her family, and especially for herself, Bess pulled the trigger on divorcing Jon. And although she will always have love in her heart for the man who was by her side for thirty years, the betrayal she experienced was too much to just let him walk back into her life. But when another man--ten years Bess's junior, charming, good-looking, and extremely into Bess--falls into her lap, Bess isn't sure what to do. Dating a new man feels wrong, but then so does going back to Jon. Join the women of Whisling on this next thrilling and beautiful chapter of their lives in New Beginnings on Whisling Island.

Just off the coast of Washington state, a visit to beautiful Whisling Island will change you. Its residents will give you reasons to laugh, cry, and rejoice. Bess Wilder's entire life changes with one sentence: "I'm so sorry, Bess." Her husband, Jon, has betrayed her, and she isn't sure what to do or feel. Her entire life was dedicated to Jon and her children. Everything is wrong and life feels like it will never be right. So what can she do? Perfect Olivia Birmingham is keeping a huge secret. Her marriage has been a sham for years. But as long as no one knows the truth, Olivia figures she can deal with the loneliness. It's the shame that she wouldn't be able to stand. But when the truth comes out at the worst time and place, Olivia has to move on, whether she likes it or not. Deb Sterling, Bess's best friend, is there to pick up the pieces as Bess's entire world falls apart. While Deb tries to be strong for Bess, she reels from the betrayal in private. Especially because Deb's own marriage isn't in the most stable of places. Her husband has been temporarily living in London, thousands of miles from Deb and their home on Whisling Island. Deb feels the miles pulling them apart and is scared she'll suffer the same fate as Bess if things don't change. Owning the best hair salon on the island gives Gen Redding a front-row seat to much of her hometown's ups and downs. But somehow, even in the midst of gossip central, Gen has been able to keep the terrible rift she and her husband experienced a few years earlier between just the two of them. Thankfully, they are now in a better place than ever. But when Levi is confronted by a skeleton from his past, Gen just might break.
