The Shell Shop Sidelined Large Print Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798348234447)

A missing friend. A community in limbo. And one last chance to save what matters most.

Jack and Maggie Durant were once part of everything in Pearl Beach-the marina, the holidays, the memories. And then one day, they were just...gone. No goodbye. No explanation. Now, five years later, Jack is back. And he's planning to sell the family marina to a shiny developer who doesn't know the first thing about this town.

Julia Montgomery doesn't buy it. Not the sudden return, not the rushed sale, and definitely not Jack's tight-lipped excuses. With the help of her best friend Trish, her kids, and Nigel-the charming British shell collector who keeps showing up at just the right moment-Julia starts digging into the past, hoping to find answers that might just save the marina's future.

As rumors swirl and secrets resurface, the town bands together for one last shot at protecting what matters. But to do it, they'll have to uncover the truth, face what's been left unsaid, and fight for the heart of Pearl Beach...before it's gone for good.

In Pearl Beach, you'll find strong women at every stage of life, second chances when they matter most, and the kind of friendships that stand the test of time. The Shell Shop Series is filled with heartfelt stories, unforgettable characters, and the kind of small-town charm that makes you want to linger-and read the next one.
