Which is why she runs Consider It Done, a personal concierge service in her small town. Her job also gives her the flexibility to follow her passion, being Rome, Rhode Island's unofficial special needs advocate, training emotional support companions in her spare time. There's not much of that, though, and certainly not enough for serious dating. It's always been family first for Beck.

But then his father's death and his sister's unexpected pregnancy postponed his sailing scholarship and the adventures he had planned. Running the family marina and bar was the least he could do for his grieving mother. Plus, his niece needed a father-figure. But now that she's in high school and has her bio-dad in her life, Levi's wondering if it's time to get his sea legs under him again. Or he <em>was</em> wondering, until curvy, caring Beck showed up in his bar, and then in his dreams . . . <strong>A portion of royalties to benefit The Origination of Autism Research.</strong> <strong>Praise for Marina Adair </strong> <strong> "Small town sweetness, endearing characters and a unique quirky flair."</strong> <strong>--Carly Phillips, </strong><strong><em>New York Times</em></strong><strong> bestselling author</strong> <strong>"Marina Adair is a breath of fresh air. . . .
