The Bachelor on Marco IslandThe Bachelor on Marco Island

"Is it just me, or do you also feel like you're caught in the middle of a mystery movie?... our families are the main characters mixed up in a plot that involves forty-year-old secrets, undercover agents, and a hidden trunk." Lorry Scott has faced a tumultuous life as a single mother and sole owner of her family's historic hotel ever since her father's death. Burned by her ex-husband's betrayal and at odds with her teen daughter, Tammy, Lorry feels trapped in a web of emotion and isolation. Her stress only compounds when her mother insists that the hotel needs new renovations. Lorry tries to resist, not wanting to dig their debt even deeper, but she's unable to stop her mother before she hires a contractor named Tom Barnes. Tom is also a single parent and sparks fly immediately between him and Lorry as they fight over the direction of the hotel. With their visions at odds and Lorry's daughter acting out more every day, Lorry struggles to balance her duty to the family hotel, her budding romance with Tom, and the fears of her daughter making the same mistakes she did. In this tale of second chances, unexpected connections, and the challenges of parenthood, Lorry must overcome her past and open her heart amidst the backdrop of Marco Island's sun-kissed beaches. For the best experience, read the books in order. This is the third book in the six-book series in a joint collaboration between 'The Queen Of Gorgeous Clean Mystery Romance', Amy Rafferty, and top author, Rose Ryan! Enjoy :)) "Is it just me, or do you also feel like you're caught in the middle of a mystery movie?... our families are the main characters mixed up in a plot that involves forty-year-old secrets, undercover agents, and a hidden trunk."
