Description
"Adie Lou Krugers ex never understood her affection for what her parents called their Cozy Cottage, the charming, ramshackle summer homecomplete with its own set of rules for relaxingthat shes inherited on Lake Michigan. But despite the fact shes facing a broken marriage and empty nest, and middle age is looming in the distance, memories of happy childhoods on the beach give her reason for hope. Shes determined not to let her husbands affair with a grad student reduce her to a cliché, or to waste one more minute in a career she doesnt love, so it becomes clear what Adie Lou must do: rebuild her life and restore her cottage shingle by shingle, on her terms. But converting the beloved, weather-beaten structure into a bed-and-breakfast isnt quite the efficient home-reno experience shes seen on TV. Pushback from Saugatucks contentious preservation society, costly surprises and demanding guests were not part of the plan. But as the cottage comes back to life, Adie Lou does, too, finding support in unexpected places and a new love story on the horizon. One cottage rule at a time, Adie Lou reclaims her own strength, history and joy by rediscovering the magic in every sunset and sandcastle."--Dust jacket.
