Breakfast at the Beach House Hotel
by Judith Keim
GENRE: Women's Fiction
PUBLICATION DATE: 05/26/2015
DESCRIPTION:
Two dumped women, a seaside estate, a chance to start over...
When Ann Rutherford’s husband dumps her for the bimbo in his office, unfairly leaving her without a home or a job, she reluctantly joins forces with Rhonda DelMonte to convert Rhonda’s Florida seaside estate into the small upscale hotel it once was. Ann, quiet and reserved, is no match for brash, bossy Rhonda, who left the family’s New Jersey butcher business after she won the Florida lottery. Helped by a Spanish couple who are more like family than employees and a retired female business owner, the hotel becomes a place where VIPS and other notable people can meet secretly. What starts as a light beach read begins a series that is full of love, laughter, and tears, and a lot going on at the hotel with not only Ann and Rhonda’s “Beach House Hotel family” but with guests who fill their work with challenges, satisfying twists, and happy endings. It’s a series that has won the hearts of women everywhere.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Judith Keim, A USA Today Best-Selling Author, is a hybrid author who both has a publisher and self-publishes. Ms. Keim writes heart-warming novels about women who face unexpected challenges, meet them with strength, and find love and happiness along the way, stories with heart. Her best-selling books are based, in part, on many of the places she's lived or visited and on the interesting people she's met, creating believable characters and realistic settings her many loyal readers love.
She enjoyed her childhood and young-adult years in Elmira, New York, and now makes her home in Boise, Idaho, with her husband and their two dachshunds, Winston and Wally, and other members of her family.
While growing up, she was drawn to the idea of writing stories from a young age. Books were always present, being read, ready to go back to the library, or about to be discovered.
