ABOUT THE BOOK
Postcards from the Cove by Jennifer Bardsley
The little cottage sits atop the cove’s rugged cliffs, with its whitewashed walls and views of the deep blue sea. When Hannah discovers a jar of timeworn postcards hidden inside, will they lead to the fresh start she’s longing for?
Hannah Turner has always lived in the historic and beautiful seaside resort of Sand Dollar Cove. Now grieving the loss of her father, Hannah finds comfort in the places that remind her of him, including one of the resort’s oldest cottages. Heartbroken that it’s due to be knocked down—taking her memories with it—Hannah’s heart leaps when she finds the old postcards concealed within.
Reading “I still believe in our happily ever after” on one of the cards, Hannah feels a pang for the happy ending her father never had. She can’t bear someone else’s precious memories being destroyed, so she traces the postcards’ owner to New York and sends them off—inspired by her discovery to finally seize the day.
After watching Guy—the resort’s handsome new trainer—charming their older guests, Hannah’s new attitude pushes her to give dating a chance for once. Hannah can’t resist gazing into Guy’s blue eyes as she shows him the delights of the cove. But just as she’s about to let him into her heart, she is stunned to find one of the postcards in Guy’s bag. Is Guy somehow connected to them? Is this why he came to town in the first place?
Hannah is devastated that Guy is hiding something, but can she keep her heart open to love? And when the postcards reveal a surprising link between Hannah and Guy’s pasts, will the truth bind them together or tear them apart for good?
Let yourself be swept away to the beautiful coastal town of Sand Dollar Cove in this uplifting story of long-buried family secrets, the struggle to prove your worth, and learning to be vulnerable in love. Fans of Susanne O’Leary, Mary Alice Monroe and Kristin Harper will fall head over heels for this gripping novel.

Here are the beautiful covers of the first two books in the series.
MY THOUGHTS
The description of Sand Dollar Cove is so lovely. I surely want to visit there.
This is my first read by this author. I loved the descriptions of the area, so warm and inviting, waves crashing against the cliffs, sandy beaches and rustic cabins.
The seaside setting will draw you into this story.
The characters are likable, and I enjoyed getting to know them as the story progressed. There are a lot of emotions at play in this story. Hannah is such a strong character; she does a top-of-the-line job at work and is there for her family every step of the way.
A mystery, family dynamics, a warm and hospitable setting along with realistic situations and characters I loved will have me diving right into the second and third books in this series right away.
Cozy and entertaining this will be the one you’ll be recommending to your friends.

You know, I have reviewed some books, but haven’t done any blog tours. And the reason is rather silly. I get nervous about things like that… what if I do it wrong? There are lots of challenges out there I’d like to try as well, but I’m just a big chicken. lol 🌷🤍😽

Nit silly at all and I can totally understand where you’re coming from. I’ve only been doing them for about 2 years, maybe a little bit more. I was very nervous about it and thought the same thing, I’m going to do this wrong. Here’s the thing, there’s no wrong in it. If you look at different blogs for the same your you will see them all presented in a different format style. There is no set way or order in presenting the material and the blog hosts I’ve worked with have all been super nice and will answer all your questions. Obviously you get to choose which tours sound good to you and get to choose the date to present too. I’m here to encourage you to give it a try because once you do one you say to yourself, what was my hang up that was so easy, lol. If you want the hosting address of a few I work with or would like my personal email to ask any questions just let me know. 📚📚🩷☕
