Produktbeschreibung

Book Two of the Orchid Island Series. Note - this title was previously published under the title The Orchid Island Cafe. Paisley is having the time of her life on the island. She's realizing a lifelong dream of opening a restaurant, and it's going gangbusters. She's through with the sleazy Ronan and starting a new life. The only problem - Noah is still getting married. But Paisley is determined to move on. Might she move on with the handsome Lex, a fellow chef-turned-internet-superstar? And if she does, can she finally realize the other thing she's always wanted - a child? Probably not. At least, not right now. She's still too busy mooning over Noah. But Lex's young daughter Bianca pulls on Paisley's heart strings, which leads her to make a surprising decision. Ivy is happy, too. Her play is being produced and she loves living on the island. But she, too, has romantic problems, as she's hopelessly in love with Liam, her play's director and her first love. He seems to feel the same. But they can't be together. Not if Ivy wants to keep working with him. And she does want to keep working with him, now and in the future. How can these two star-crossed lovers finally make it work? Also on the island is Astrid, Ivy and Paisley's childhood friend. She's recovering from severe depression due to the death of her beloved sister, for which Astrid feels 100% responsible. With the help of her childhood friends and her best friend, Gabriel, Astrid comes out of her depression and begins to live life again. Best of all, her mother's comes back in her life. Gabriel makes Astrid a surprising offer, which makes her feel her life will be complete. But Astrid has feelings for Gabriel, feelings she can't acknowledge even to herself. Since Gabriel has a serious girlfriend, that could complicate matters. Continue the feel-good stories of the characters you've come to love!
