Synopsis

“…Savannah Carlisle is now one of my go-to authors for heartwarming, Kleenex-clutching, feel-good romance!” — Annie Rains, USA Today Bestselling Author

Lose yourself in the idyllic coastal town of Big Dune Island with this absolutely charming summer read, perfect for fans of Denise Hunter, Debbie Macomber, and RaeAnne Thayne.

Book 1 – THE SUMMER OF STARTING OVER – May 2025 – 300 pp.

When Callie Jackson left her island hometown years ago with big dreams, she knew precisely the star she wanted to be and achieved it. At least for a little while.

Jesse Thomas had always planned to move to Nashville with Callie, but he was supposed to get there before her, knocking out his first year at Vanderbilt while she finished high school.

Neither of them imagined she’d get discovered so early or that family turmoil would put Jesse’s family on the brink of financial collapse. He needed to stay, and she needed to leave. So, Callie did the only thing she could think of that would make him stay: she cut all ties.

Then all her big dreams came crashing down. As she sorts through the wreckage of her career, her Uncle Lonnie is forcing her to return to Big Dune Island to clean out the family home he’s recently sold. And she knows she’ll have to face Jesse.

Book 2 – IF I’D HAVE KNOWN – August 2025 – 281 pp.

Gigi Franklin is planning her best friend’s wedding, and long-time friend Austin Beckett is trying to help her keep the private event top secret. As Gigi and Austin work together, their rivalry increases and sparks begin to fly, but Gigi’s too busy building her law practice to make time for dating.

If the wedding wasn’t enough to manage, she’s also tasked with finding the rightful heir to the local Salty Breeze B&B. Then, newcomer Simon Ridley arrives in town, throwing a wrench in the process.

As Gigi races against time to uncover the truth about the B&B’s ownership and pull off the perfect wedding, an old journal surfaces that might change everything she thought she knew about love.

Book 3 – WHERE WE BELONG – March 2026 – 372 pp.

Chloe Beckett has always believed in the magic of community. Raised on Big Dune Island, Chloe found her place in the kitchen of her grandmother’s coastal home, where neighbors became family and stories were passed down over cups of coffee.

Years later, Island Coffee isn’t just a café. It’s the heart of Main Street. Locals gather beneath its string lights and mismatched china, sharing morning rituals and lifelong memories. After years of living in her famous brother’s shadow, Chloe is stepping into the spotlight–competing on a reality TV show for a prize that could expand her café’s legacy to the next town over.

However, the competition is fierce with social media superstars and slick MBAs. Chloe knows exactly who she should ask for help–Michael Russo, a New York real estate investor whose world revolves around profits and projections. Her crush on him has gone unnoticed for years, and this is the perfect excuse to spend more time with him. But it’s Chloe who begins to rewrite everything he thought he knew about success.
