Back To The Lake Breeze Hotel. Amie Denman

      

      The Almost Happily-Ever-After

      They lost each other once... Now they have one more chance.

      Every wedding has a happy ending—except for Alice Birmingham. She’s never forgiven herself for leaving the love of her life at the altar five years ago. Nate Graham hasn’t forgiven her, either. Now they must work together at Starlight Point amusement park, caught between the mistakes they made...and a love that refuses to stay buried in the past.

      AMIE DENMAN is the author of more than a dozen contemporary romances full of humor and heart. A devoted traveler who grew up with parents who always kept a suitcase packed, she loves reading and writing books you could take on vacation. Amie believes everything is fun, especially wedding cake, show tunes, roller coasters and falling in love.

      “Weddings are my business now.”

      Nate laughed heartlessly, but there was so much chatter and music echoing in the room that he knew only Alice would hear. “Oh, the irony,” he said.

      Alice’s cheeks colored deeper, and he felt a tiny stab of guilt for being so harsh. “It’s not as ironic as you think,” she protested. “I guess you could consider it a way to atone for what—”

      “For what you did,” he said bitterly.

      Alice shook her head. “For what I didn’t do.”

      Nate wished he was anywhere else. He’d often wondered what he would say if he ever saw Alice again. There was no worse time and place than right here and now.

      He just had to ask one question.

      “Have you ever wondered what would have happened if you hadn’t walked out on our wedding?”

      Alice’s shoulders dropped and she looked at the floor. “Every day for the last five years.”

Dear Reader,

      Thank you for reading Back to the Lake Breeze Hotel and visiting Starlight Point. This is the fifth book of Starlight Point Stories, which also includes Under the Boardwalk, Carousel Nights, Meet Me on the Midway and Until the Ride Stops. From the first book, one of my favorite characters has been Virginia Hamilton. When her husband suddenly passes away at the beginning of the summer amusement park season, she has to be strong and make quick decisions in the best interests of her beloved Starlight Point and her three children. I’m so glad Virginia has her second chance at love five seasons later. I also love the second-chance theme of Alice and Nate meeting again after she left him at the altar five years ago. A lot can change in five years!

      Writing the Starlight Point series has been an absolute joy for me, and I feel so attached to these characters and Starlight Point that I hate to let them go! I hope you’ll love this book. You can stay in touch with me at amiedenman.com, follow me on Twitter, @amiedenman, or send me an email at [email protected].

      Best wishes!

      Amie Denman

      To my wonderful friends of twenty-five years,

      Fran, Chris and Connie. Fran gave me

      the idea for this book, but you are all an inspiration to me! Thank you for

      your loyalty, laughter and love.
