Savannah came to Magnolia Sound area with Cash because he wanted to try to make amends with his sons. Savannah couldn't let Cash travel across the country alone so she went with him. It wasn't like she was leaving anything behind in Seattle anyway. She is the type of person that finds joy in the little things after so much loss, so when she meets Jackson over potato skins she isn't sure what to think. Especially once she finds out who he is.
Jackson is home from the military have tearing his ACL. He doesn't want his family to know he is home until he is ready. When he meets Savannah and discovers who she is, everything changes. He is willing to take a chance on her because he feels a strong pull and can't stay away from her, no matter that she is closer to his father than he is. All of Cash's family pulls together and not only helps Cash though a horrible time, but also pulls Savannah in and makes her a part of their family.
This was a box of tissues book. This book has so many ups and downs one minute you are smiling and laughing with the characters the next you are in tears because a character is tearing out your heart. Despite all the tears I could not put the book down, you can't help but to fall in love with these characters and want them to be happy. The chemistry between Jackson and Savannah is undeniable as well. I loved how his brothers pulled her in and made her feel like she belonged with them as well. They have so many issues with Cash and at first they were all hurt that he would choose Savannah over them, but once they found that she had no one they understood. This book touches the heart and leaves you with booklash but it is so worth the read.

Beautiful ending to this amazing series. Jackson and Savannah are the best couple. They’ve both been through so much in their lives and seem to have figured out how to make the best of things as they go.
I laughed. I cried. I adored this series.

5 stars are not enough. This book had everything a reader could ask for. Beautifully written characters, an emotional journey through each and every turn of the page and a plot that is the epitome of coming home again while at the same time it revolves around redemption and forgiveness. I have not cried tears like this while reading a book in quite some time and this book will always be part of my heart. Samantha Chase - you took a very emotional storyline, gave it hope and happiness all intertwined between the very same pages where you brought a hated character back to a family who needed closure. Well done.

Samantha Chase has had me hooked on magnolia sound from the very 1st book. This book with no different and I quickly found my stuff reading far in to the night. Jackson just got home from the marines with a career ending injury. He is staying at a friends house so he can avoid his rather large family. Savannah came to town with her dads best friend, Cash so he could make ammends to his sons for the bad things he did their whole life, before he passes. Jackson and Savannah meet one night and sparks fly. Then the next morning they realize who each is and it could all blow up for both of them.
The characters in this book were incredible and I fell in love with all of the Coleman family easily. The author does a great job of development and getting the reader interested in the book. I really hope there are more books about this small town.

I'm a bit sad honestly to think this could be the end of the Magnolia Sound series. I've enjoyed listening to these and discovering them this year when my county library changed their Libby to a state library consortium and since it has a larger and broader collection of kindle library books and audiobooks, that's how I discovered this fun series and Samantha Chase as an author. Overall, this is a fun and cute little series and kinda hope there might be a few more or at least one more perhaps? Regardless, still sad this could be the end to Magnolia Sound and the Coleman family and all their relatives. I am though happy to actually finish a series before the end of the year for once and now I can't wait to try other audiobooks by Samantha Chase on my Libby I have no doubt next year.

This book might rip your heart out and stomp on it for good measure. If you've read any of this series, you know who Cash Coleman is. This is him making amends and telling his story. It's also bringing Savannah into the Magnolia Sound family and has Jackson finally returning from the Marines. You've been warned, grab some tissues, and read how forgiveness and no regrets are the way to live. And sometimes you just have to be willing to risk letting your walls fall.

Jackson Coleman had been a Marine for the last 10 years of his life. When an injury, surgery, and recovery forced him into retirement, Jackson wasn’t quite ready to return to Magnolia Sound and face his family. He wasn’t sure exactly what he wanted to do with his life and wanted to take some time in Laurel Bay to figure out what his future looked like.
Savannah James had recently arrived in Laurel Bay with her friend Cash. Cash had been Savannah’s dad’s best friend; after her dad passed and Cash’s terminal diagnosis, Savannah traveled to Laurel Bay so Cash could spend what time he had left with his family.
After Jackson and Savannah met accidentally and had a fabulous evening together, neither expected to run into one another again, and discover who each of them really were.
Jackson struggled with feelings of hurt and betrayal by his father, and Savannah struggled with feelings of abandonment. As Cash’s health take a turn for the worst, the two have to analyze their feelings for one another and determine how to navigate their relationship, or if they can.

I think this was really well written, it’s been a while since a book made my eyes tear up and the author definitely provoked some emotions from me at certain parts throughout the book. It was my first book by the author and I will definitely be checking out the rest of her books.

Great end to the Magnolia Sound series! While I believe these are considered "stand alone" books, I STRONGLY recommend reading the series from the very beginning.
I really liked the back & forth between these two characters... and that Samantha Chase didn't make anything too "easy" for either of them. Since Jackson is the Coleman that we knew the least about heading into his book, I liked that the story was set in Laurel Bay instead of Magnolia Sound (& hint, hint, we got to meet an entire new family ;)).
