Not sure when this got picked up but I found it in a box of books under my desk.

Olivia Lockhart-Griffin Cedar Cove, Washington

Dear Reader,
As you may have heard, we've recently had quite a shock. My daughter, Justine, and her husband, Seth, lost their business, The Lighthouse restaurant—to arson. The investigation continues. The prime suspect is a young ex-employee named Anson Butler, who disappeared right after the fire.
So Justine and Seth are trying to make plans and sort out their future. (And let me tell you, that kind of crisis is hard on a marriage!) Thankfully, they have a lot of good things in their lives, including Leif, my adorable grandson, and their lovely house at 6 Rainier Drive.
In the meantime, life goes on for everyone in Cedar Cove—with marriages, births, reunions and even the occasional scandal. One of the most interesting pieces of recent news is that Cal, who works for Cliff Harding, is off rescuing wild mustangs in Montana.
Let's talk soon and I'll fill you in on everything that's happening in town!

When I picked this up I don't think I knew it was part of a series. So, rather than finding the contemporary romance I expected I felt like I was plunked down in the middle of a long running soap opera series. The writing was good, the mystery of who burned down the Lighthouse restaurant was interesting. However there were so many characters and side stories going on that I had a hard time keeping track of who was who.
