Kristan Higgins
Gideon's Cove #3

Description
Get swept up in the charm and romance of Gideon’s Cove with these three feel-good reads from New York Times bestselling author Kristan Higgins! Catch Of The Day Perpetually single Maggie Beaumont almost believes that her perfect man is out there waiting for her. With her infamous romantic past — including a failed long-term relationship with her high school sweetheart and a dead-end crush on the new priest, Father Tim O’Halloran — it’s becoming more and more difficult to picture anyone rolling into the small town of Gideon’s Cove just to sweep Maggie off her feet. So when Father Tim offers to set Maggie up on a series of blind dates, she decides she has nothing to lose and lets him play matchmaker. The Next Best Thing Lucy Lang wants a husband. She’s not looking for anyone special, just someone decent and reliable — but definitely not a man she’ll fall in love with. A young widow, Lucy already loved and lost her soulmate, and she doesn’t want to risk that kind of heartbreak again. But sick of being lumped in with her cursed ‘Black Widow’ aunts, Lucy is motivated to give up her casual and completely inappropriate relationship with Ethan Mirabelli, her handsome neighbour, and search for something more dependable. Somebody To Love After her father loses the family fortune in an insider-trading scheme, single mom Parker Welles is faced with some hard decisions. First order of business: go to Gideon's Cove to sell the only thing she now owns — a decrepit house in need of some serious flipping. When her father's wingman, James Cahill, asks to go with her, she's not thrilled...even if he is fairly gorgeous and knows his way around a toolbox. Second on Parker’s list: find a nice man to have a no-strings-attached summer fling with...if that’s even possible in a small town.
