Ocean Breeze Series
By
Sherryl Woods
Sand Castle Bay kicks off the series by introducing readers to the youngest sister, Emily Castle, an ambitious interior designer who is torn between her successful career on the west coast and her old love. Boone Dorsett might be the sexiest man living along the North Carolina coast, but when Emily is offered an exciting career opportunity, she finds herself in an all too familiar quandary.
Readers follow the whirlwind of Emily’s life in the second book —Wind Chime Point while meeting the middle sister, Gabriella Castle, who is pregnant and unemployed. To help put the pieces of her life back together, Gabriella, a career-driven PR maven, returns home to the North Carolina coast where family friend, Wade Johnson, is determined to woo and win her — even though she carries another man’s child.
The trilogy concludes with the June release of Sea Glass Island.

Blurb:
With her two younger sisters heading for the altar, will Samantha Castle exchange old dreams for new ones? Lately she'd rather be on the North Carolina coast with family than in New York with agents and actors. Though she vows not to let her teenage crush on Ethan Cole influence her decision, it's hard to ignore her feelings for the local war hero.

About the Author
With two other careers to her credit before becoming a novelist and four states in which she's lived for extended periods of time, Sherryl Woods has collected friends and memories, along with way too much unnecessary junk.
"The friends are the only things I've brought with me through the years that really matter," she says. "I could probably live without one more chintz teacup, another tin-litho sandpail or another snowglobe, but I need those friends."
Author of more than 100 romance and mystery novels, Sherryl Woods grew up in Virginia. Over the years she had lived in Ohio and Florida, as well as California. Currently she divides her time between Key Biscayne, Florida and Colonial Beach, Virginia, the small, river-front town where she spent her childhood summers.
A graduate of Ohio State University School of Journalism, Sherryl spent more than ten years as a journalist, most of them as a television critic for newspapers in Ohio and Florida. For several years she also coordinated a motivational program for the more than 8,000 employees at the University of Miami-Jackson Memorial Medical Center.
Her first book, RESTORING LOVE, was published in 1982 by Dell Candlelight Ecstasy under the pseudonym of Suzanne Sherrill. Her second book, SAND CASTLES, under the pseudonym of Alexandra Kirk, was published later that same year by Bantam. She began using her own name when she moved to the Second Chance at Love line at Berkley Publishing. In 1986, she began writing full-time and also began her long career at Silhouette Books with the Desire title NOT AT EIGHT, DARLING, set in the world of television which she covered for so many years.
In addition to her more than 75 romances for Silhouette Desire and Special Edition, she has written thirteen mysteries — nine in the Amanda Roberts series and four in the Molly DeWitt series.
When she's not writing or reading, Sherryl loves to garden, though she's not at her best on a riding lawn mower. She also loves tennis, theater, and ballet, even though her top spin has long since vanished, she's never set foot on a stage, and she's way too uncoordinated to dance. She also loves baseball and claims anyone who's ever seen Kevin Costner in "Bull Durham" can understand why.
I haven't read the series yet, but I did win Sea Glass Island from a Goodreads Giveaway. I'd love to have the whole series, so I can read them all at once, because they sound really good!
