This is the twelfth book in the South Carolina Series, the series that initially hooked me on Rachel Hanna’s works, starting with the first book, The Beach House.

Once again, she delivers with Serenity at Seagrove! This heartwarming installment weaves together themes of healing, second chances, and love, all set against the picturesque backdrop of Seagrove.

Luna Mason’s journey to establish a wellness center and find her place in the community is truly inspiring. Her compassion and determination make it easy to support her success. Archer Hawk, who starts off resistant but ultimately experiences a transformation, adds depth and emotional resonance to the story. The evolution of their relationship feels authentic and deeply satisfying, keeping readers engaged from start to finish.

The author’s storytelling is captivating, striking a perfect balance between heartfelt moments and unexpected twists. Readers will immediately connect with the vibrant community of Seagrove and its charming characters. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the series or a newcomer, Serenity at Seagrove is a must-read that will leave you feeling uplifted and yearning for your own seaside getaway! From the very first book in the series, I’ve wished I could move to Seagrove!

While this book can be enjoyed as a standalone , I recommend starting with the first book in the series, The Beach House. Several characters from earlier books appear here, so reading them in order will enhance your understanding of the characters

Happy Reading!
