Grab a comfy seat and dive into my books! Both are fun, easy beach reads with satisfying endings and FMLs that are elder millennials (like me!) with kick-ass best friends (like me!) living their best lives and finding their happily ever after.
On the eve of her fortieth birthday, Hannah Flaherty’s life looks nothing like she’d imagined. The hopeless romantic who once spent hours dreaming up impossible futures with her fearless best friend, Celeste, is now living alone in a tiny Boston apartment, teaching high school physics, and reeling from the end of the relationship she thought would finally last forever.
Then a mysterious package appears on her doorstep.
First-class plane tickets. Envelopes filled with foreign currency. One simple instruction: Go.
What follows is a journey around the world through emerald sea caves, cliffside villages scented with lemons, cities haunted by history, unforgettable nights with strangers, and shimmering tropical waters. At every destination, carefully orchestrated surprises push Hannah farther from the safe, predictable life she’s always settled for.
Along the way, Hannah finds unexpected friendships, breathtaking adventures, and a man who quietly challenges everything she thought she wanted. But the greatest surprise isn’t in the itinerary, it’s discovering that the love she’s been searching for is closer to home than she realized.
From award-winning author Katie Walsh, Take Me Anywhere is a sweeping romance about grief, friendship, second chances and discovering that the greatest adventure is choosing your own happily ever after.
Kate Walker's life is unraveling.
At age 44, she's lost her high-profile Manhattan job, her husband of ten years and her sense of purpose. In an act of desperation, she puts out an SOS to her eclectic and spontaneous best friend Nikki.
Throwing practicality out the window, Nikki convinces Kate to return to the last place where she was truly wild and free: Chatham, Massachusetts. The only problem is—Kate hasn’t set foot on Cape Cod since a steamy 2002 summer romance shattered her heart. With her life in pieces, she’s ready to risk the memories to find the part of herself she left buried in the dunes.
At the luxurious Chatham Bars Inn, Kate is immediately taken by Aiden, a disarmingly charming younger man who bears an uncanny resemblance to her old flame. As she’s drawn into Aiden’s magnetic pull, flashbacks of her summer in 2002 resurface with growing intensity, as do doubts about the decision she made years ago.
Kate finds herself caught between two timelines and two versions of herself: one foot in the present, grounded in Hermès sandals and the weight of maturity; the other in 2002, teetering in Steve Madden platforms and the reckless heat of first love. As past and present blur, Kate must face who she was, who she is, and what it will truly take to be happy.
Follow You Down is an award-winning story about first loves, friendship, second chances, and discovering that it's never too late to follow your heart.
