Sometimes, the best recipes are made from second chances and shared dreams. At sixty-seven, Susan Timms thought she’d closed the final chapter on her culinary career when she sold her Georgia catering business. Moving to Sapphire Bay to reunite with her friends feels like the fresh start she desperately needs—especially when award-winning chef Paul Renard asks her to help him at the Lakeside Grill. Paul left behind the glittering success of his Los Angeles and San Francisco restaurants for the peaceful shores of Sapphire Bay, trading fame and fortune for a simpler life. After his marriage crumbled under the weight of eighteen-hour days and endless ambition, he swore off both romance and the high-pressure culinary world that had consumed him. When he asks Susan to help him create a new menu for his restaurant, he discovers that the most important ingredient in any recipe is trust. Together, they learn that it’s never too late to blend two lives, two dreams, and two hearts into something beautiful—proving that the sweetest success comes not from what you achieve alone, but from what you create together. Cottage on the Bay is the fourth book in the A New Beginning series and can easily be read as a standalone. All of Leeanna's series are linked. If you find a character you like in one book, they could be in another!
