Confidences au bord de l'eau (Gideon's Cove, #3)

Millie Barnes is this close to finally achieving her perfect life.

 Rewarding job as a local doctor on Cape Cod? Check. Cute cottage of her very own? Check. Adorable puppy suitable for walks past attractive locals? Check! All she needs is for golden boy and former crush Joe Carpenter to notice her, and Millie will be set.

 But perfection isn't as easy as it looks-especially when Sam Nickerson, a local policeman, is so distracting. Sure, he needs a friend after being dumped by Millie's fortune-hunting sister, but does she really need to enjoy his company that much? He is definitely not part of her master plan. But maybe it's time for Millie to start a new list.

A Little Ray of Sunshine - A beautiful and romantic novel guaranteed to make you laugh and cry, from the bestselling author of TikTok sensation Pack up the Moon

Si Maggie devait faire la liste de tout ce qui la rend très heureuse dans la vie, ce serait :— le Joe’s, le restaurant plein de charme qu’elle dirige – une véritable institution pour les 1 407 habitants de Gideon’s Cove (minuscule bourgade de pêcheurs aux confins du Maine) ;— une famille (presque toujours) aimante, et surtout une sœur jumelle avec laquelle elle partage une entente et une complicité à l’épreuve de tous les chocs de l’existence ;— un chien qu’elle adore ;— des employés fidèles et dévoués – quasiment une deuxième famille.Déjà pas mal, n’est-ce pas ? Pourtant, si elle en avait le pouvoir, Maggie ajouterait volontiers une dernière petite chose à cette liste : un homme très amoureux d’elle, qu’elle aimerait aussi à la folie, et avec lequel elle vivrait un bonheur conjugal à faire pâlir d’envie toute la population féminine de Gideon’s Cove. Hélas, entre son amour impossible et malencontreux pour le père Tim, le prêtre de la paroisse, ses blind dates catastrophiques et sa liaison torride avec Malone, ténébreux et mutique pêcheur de homards, elle doute de pouvoir un jour y parvenir…
