From beloved author Betsy St. Amant comes an enemies to more, Hatfields and McCoys swoon-worthy contemporary romance set in a small beach town that reminds us that true love is worth fighting for.
Noah Hebert recently inherited the Blue Pirogue Inn—along with all its problems. He needs money to keep his beloved childhood home from being shut down by his family’s longtime nemesis, Isaac Bergeron. So when Noah’s lawyer approaches him about an additional segment of his late grandfather’s will, it’s just in the nick of time. But even from beyond the grave, his grandfather is up to his usual games. In order to receive the last portion of inheritance, Noah must follow the clues. But there’s one condition…
Magnolia Blossom Cafe manager Elisa Bergeron is shocked to discover an acquaintance from the local Puzzlers Club left her something in his will—and even more surprised to discover they are clues to a portion of his estate. When she learns she must work with introverted inn-owner Noah Hebert to solve the puzzle, she’s torn. Growing up in the middle of a multi-generational feud between their families, she’s been taught by her father Isaac that Heberts can’t be trusted.
When these two exes must work together to save their future, will love get a second chance or will the longstanding family feud claim another generation?

MY THOUGHTS
I liked Noah a lot. He was a bit of a grump, but he had a good heart. It took me a little bit longer to warm up to Elisa, but I ended up liking her a lot too. There was a bit of a Hatfield/McCoy-style feud between the Bergeron and Hebert families. Despite that, sparks were flying between Noah and Elisa. They had a complicated history, but, goodness, their chemistry was off the charts! I was really rooting for them to work past their issues because they were great together.
The treasure hunt was a lot of fun. It was so clever. I loved seeing Noah and Elisa work together. I also really enjoyed getting to know Noah’s grandpa through the clues. Even though he was no longer there, his presence was felt.
If you’re looking for a heartwarming and inspiring romance set in a charming small town, grab a copy of this book. It doesn’t disappoint. I’m eager to visit Magnolia Bay again in the next book!
I received a copy of this book and voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and comments are my honest opinion.
