I think my anticipation for this book set me up just a bit.
My very first book by her was The Fixer Upper. I’ve read nearly everything she has ever written. Mary Kay Andrews is by and far one of my most favorite authors. True love is only for the movies, right? Can Greer find a way to be the heroine in her own life story? Told with inimitable heart and humor, Mary Kay Andrews’ Beach Town is the perfect summer destination. Now Greer is forced to make some hard choices: about the people and the town she’s come to care about, and about her own life. And Greer and Eb are way too attracted to each other for either of them to see reason.īetween an ambitious director and his entourage-including a spoiled “It Boy” lead actor-who parachute into town, a conniving local ex-socialite, and a cast of local fangirls and opportunists who catch the movie bug, nothing is going to be the same in Cypress Key. But Greer has a way of making things happen, regardless of obstacles. After a toxic paper plant closed, the bay has only recently been reborn, and Eb has no intention of letting anybody screw with his town again. A lifelong resident of Cypress Key, Eben wants the town to be revitalized, not commercialized. Eben Thibadeaux, the town mayor, completely objects to Greer’s plan.
There’s one motel, a marina, a long stretch of pristine beach and an old fishing pier with a community casino-which will be perfect for the film’s explosive climax. She zeroes in on a sleepy Florida panhandle town called Cypress Key. Greer has been given one more chance, if she can find the perfect undiscovered beach hideaway for a big-budget movie. But her last project literally went up in flames, and her career is on the verge of flaming out. As a movie location scout, picture-perfect is the name of the game.
