SUNRISE REEF by Irene Hannon, Reviewed by Winnie Thomas


HOPE HARBOR NOVEL #11
Small Town Beach Contemporary Opposites Attract 
Clean Romance Set in the Pacific Northwest

“A little kindness goes a long way toward smoothing rough paths and healing hearts.”

It’s always a treat to return to Hope Harbor for another of Irene Hannon’s entertaining and inspirational stories. I love the small-town camaraderie and friendships that this talented author creates and the engaging, relatable characters that populate her stories. Sunrise Reef stars spunky Bren Ryan who has finally found a place that feels like home. When CPA Noah Ward comes to town to visit his father, he doesn’t intend to stay long or to be intrigued by Bren.

As Bren and Noah get to know each other better, their relationship starts to change, but can Noah, who lives a fast-paced life in a big city, and Bren, who has found her niche in Hope Harbor, ever make things work out?

In a parallel story, kind-hearted Bren meets a struggling teenager who is stranded when her car breaks down in Hope Harbor. Emma is hoping to find a job and get guardianship of her teenage brother.

It was such fun to mingle with all the residents of Hope Harbor again and feel their support and love for each other.

BackCover Blurb:
Sometimes you have to look beneath the surface to find the treasure within

After years of searching, Bren Ryan has found her place in Hope Harbor. Working as a barista suits her to a T, as does the laid-back vibe of her adopted town. Nothing is lacking in her life--except romance. But that's okay. Men are a complication she doesn't need.

Buttoned-up CPA Noah Ward isn't looking for love, either, when he arrives in town on a mission to convince his father to move closer to him. And he certainly doesn't intend to fall for the quirky, free-spirited woman who's taken up residence in his father's guest cottage.

But when Noah finds himself sucked into Bren's quest to help a struggling teen, might the two of them discover there's more to each other than meets the eye?

Come home to Hope Harbor--where hearts heal . . . and love blooms.
