Finding Love in Lincoln City: Sometimes finding love takes loosing something or seeing your friends loose something to shake your world up. In this book Liz is faced with a family secret that destroyed her belief in what could be. When faced with the possibility of love or being single she reaches out to God for answers but is she getting the ones she wants or the one God wanted for her. This book was fun love story with a competitive nature back and forth between the main characters looking for love why doing a job the both love.

Finding Love in Oceanside: After a failed friends wedding Anabeth starts to question her journey. With a few days off she decides to head to her moms in hopes for some time on the beach and some answers. When Mitch crashes into her life she also sees that life could be so much more if she could just get past the doubt. Such a fun book with lots of fun characters. Mitch's dad is old school but seems to have a flare for fun and mischief which is evident in this story. I love how just like the previous story the draw of the ocean cities is a way to find peace and connect with God while finding hope for the future

Finding love in Cannon Beach: Two awkward closet geeks have one big thing in common music. Can music bring the through the brokenness and help them find what they are looking for? In this book Kadence is left more confused and frustrated with life after her best friends wedding ends with no one married her parents ask her to stay with and aunt and she seeks comfort in the quiet beach life. Foster has a bit of a gypsy spirit and is happy for now helping those in this small Oregon town. The thing about this story that seemed to confuse me a little was the awkwardness between the main characters and some times the pull towards each other didn't make sense but seemed forced. I did however enjoy the eccentric Nan she seemed to have a small role that packed a large punch and not someone to be double crossed

Finding love in Seaside: Christina is faced with weather or not did she make the right choice when she decided to leave her Ex-fiance at the alter. She feel like in her heart it was the right choice but when she takes a honeymoon all alone and comes face to face with reality her head and her heart just don't seem to be adding up. In this story while short like the other three it seemed to flow well and seemed like there was more to come with Dave and his brothers. I liked while Christina is faced with so trials it didn't seem to weigh the story down and the author used characters like Sam to add a light hearted fun loving feel to the story. I think out of all of the four stories this had to be my favorite. Christina and Dave both seemed to find looking for healing in the brokenness, and it made them super relatable.


All three friends seem to have their worlds rocked by one friends decision to not get married but tried to find healing in all the craziness. I enjoyed that all the stories were tired together and all the stories seem to have a purpose each different. I was not a fan of all the stories but the others made up for it and it was nice to read a good clean christian romance story. Definitely a good summer read.

I adored this novella collection. The collection starts off with a wedding that wasn't. It branches off into four separate stories all connected to the wedding.

Finding Love in Lincoln City-A sweet story of old friends reconnecting, pushing each other to be reach their full potential and falling in love at the same time.

Finding Love in Ocean Side-This is a cute story of how a small fender bender can lead to great things. Restoring a relationship with a parent and finding the "one".

Finding Love in Cannon Beach-One hit wonder finally finds the one that brings out "the" song.

Finding Love in Seaside-This is by far my favorite of the novellas. After calling off her wedding, can Christina heal and find a new love, the one God has for her, in the process.

I was given this collection for an honest review.

Sweet Stories

These four stories were a joy to read. Each author blended the main relationships of the four friends together beautiful. I loved each woman's individual story and how their lives were changed and connected.
This was a fun summer read!
