Rainshadow Road by Lisa Kleypas

Yay, an adult book, finally!!!  This is just what I needed, a breezy, light read with a perfect mix of romance with a hint of magic.  This reminded me so much of the Debbie Macomber series Cedar Cove...you fall in love with the setting almost as much as with the characters.  The second book in the series comes out in August and it will be the *perfect* vacation/beach read!!!

Publication Date: February 28, 2012
Series: Friday Harbor

Rainshadow Road (Friday Harbor)Lucy Marinn is a glass artist living in mystical, beautiful, Friday Harbor, Washington. She is stunned and blindsided by the most bitter kind of betrayal: her fiancé Kevin has left her. His new lover is Lucy’s own sister. Lucy's bitterness over being dumped is multiplied by the fact that she has constantly made the wrong choices in her romantic life. Facing the severe disapproval of Lucy's parents, Kevin asks his friend Sam Nolan, a local vineyard owner on San Juan Island, to "romance" Lucy and hopefully loosen her up and get her over her anger. Complications ensue when Sam and Lucy begin to fall in love, Kevin has second thoughts, and Lucy discovers that the new relationship in her life began under false pretenses. Questions about love, loyalty, old patterns, mistakes, and new beginnings are explored as Lucy learns that some things in life—even after being broken—can be made into something new and beautiful.
