Blessings on State Street (Blessings Bay, #1)

A secret beach house. An unexpected houseguest. And a chance to start over—if they're willing to let go of the past.
From USA Today bestselling author Rachael Bloome comes a tender, uplifting small-town romance about hope, healing, and the kind of love that finds you when you least expect it.
Still reeling from the loss of her husband, Abigail Preston retreats to Blessings Bay—a picturesque small town where her husband owned a secret beach house. Her plan? Find peace, catch her breath, and figure out what comes next. What she doesn't plan on? A ruggedly handsome Air Force veteran already living in her seaside retreat.
Logan Mathews isn't expecting company. After a medical discharge ended his military career and a broken engagement shattered his trust, he's found solitude as the caretaker of a friend's beach house. The last thing he wants is a housemate—especially one who stirs feelings he thought he'd buried for good.
Forced to share a space neither of them expected, Abby and Logan agree to keep their distance. But Blessings Bay has a way of drawing people together—through nosy neighbors, romantic seaside adventures, and a mysterious young boy in need of his own fresh start.
As buried truths begin to surface and emotional defenses wear thin, Abby and Logan must each face a life-altering question: is it safer to live in the past, or risk everything for the possibility of love, belonging, and a place to call home?
Perfect for fans of feel-good romance, emotional slow burns, and stories of resilience and rediscovery, Blessings on State Street is a heartwarming escape to a coastal town full of second chances.
