Could an unexpected windfall be the gift of a lifetime?
Alice never expected to inherit the falling-apart-at-the-seams old Wild West B&B she once considered home, nor did she expect that she'd have to share it with two strangers.
Except they weren't always strangers. Once upon a time, they were friends.
One is her ex-BFF Lauren. The other is Knox, the only guy to ever break her heart.Years ago, each of them independently helped the same woman, never expecting that it would link them together forever. And now Alice, Lauren, and Knox, all broken in their own ways, must find a way to get along with each other. According to the woman's will, they must renovate the inn as a team for one year, or else lose their inheritance.
Stuck together, they make a list of rules to keep the peace. The rules may not be that effective, but if they can weather the storm, they might find something they didn't even know they were looking for - acceptance, real friendship, and maybe even true love.
So the BackUp Plan is the third book of the Sunrise Cove series. I have to be honest, I think this is my favourite book in the series so far. As always you do not need to read the previous books to enjoy this one.
I quickly fell in love in Lauren, Knox and Alice and watching them come together to fix the Last Chance Inn that they have inherited from Elenor, a women that they all are connected to, in order to cash in on their inheritance. Alice and Lauren were childhood friends until they fell out, and Alice had a crush on Knox. But then Alice left town. Now she is back for a short a time as possible.
But as time goes on and the group comes more together, their friendships build and suddenly leaving becomes a whole lot harder than they all originally thought. Lauren and Alice have a second chance to become best friends. All have the chance to find love, friendship and what home actually mean to each of them.
The Backup Plan will have you laughing out loud one moment and in tears the next. While this story is new there is something comforting and familiar in picking up a Jill Shavlis book.
