Jane has promised herself one thing — never to spend another Christmas alone. Focused on her successful jewellery shop on Harbour Street in the seaside town of Westbay, she’s determined to keep her heart safely out of reach.

But after an online dating disaster, fate throws her into the path of a charming, younger man. One impulsive choice leads to unexpected consequences — and emotions Jane thought she’d buried for good.

Four years after losing his wife, Tommy has become Westbay’s most eligible bachelor. But when his niece Shelley turns up unannounced, bringing laughter and a little chaos into his quiet life, Tommy is forced to face the truth about what he really wants.

“Hundreds of words that could have been said have been eroded with time. Time that never came back, and truth that remained unsaid.”

Set in the heart of the close-knit Westbay community, The Westbay Romance Series is a year full of love, loss, and second chances — with every story finding its resolution at Christmas.
