Holiday Bay is a charming seaside town where every season brings a holiday, every holiday is a reason to celebrate, and healing comes in the most unexpected forms.

After a devastating loss, Abby Sullivan never imagined her road to healing would lead her to a quaint seaside inn in Holiday Bay, Maine—or to a new life filled with quirky companions, cozy traditions, and mysteries that seem to follow her wherever she goes.

Now, in Book 35 of this heartwarming series, Abby and her friend Lacy are roped into coaching a ragtag soccer team of first-time players—including Lacy’s twins and Colt’s niece—after the original coach moves away. With no experience but plenty of heart, the duo sets out to guide the underdogs, forming bonds with each of the girls along the way, especially a quiet player hiding more than just nerves. When the girl suddenly disappears from practice, Abby’s instincts kick in, leading to a deeper mystery that proves some hunches are too important to ignore.

As the leaves turn and preparations for the annual harvest festival fill the air with the scent of cider and autumn cheer, the inn buzzes with seasonal excitement. With Colt in rehab, Georgia preparing for a life-changing arrival, and new beginnings on the horizon for all, Holiday Bay once again proves that healing, hope, and a little bit of magic can be found where you least expect it.

Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries, small-town stories, and feel-good fiction that celebrates friendship, family, and the spirit of the holidays.
