On Sunset Beach
ByPublisher Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From Mariah Stewart comes a captivating and heartwarming novel in her beloved Chesapeake Diaries contemporary romance series—perfect for fans of Barbara Freethy, Robyn Carr, and Susan Mallery.
Carly Summit’s name couldn’t be more fitting, since in life she always lands on top. She grew up wealthy and privileged in a tony Connecticut town, opened her own gallery in New York City, and is about to make art world history displaying previously unknown works by a prominent twentieth-century painter. No wonder she possesses a can-do attitude that can’t be soured. Ford Sinclair is another story. A military career in war-torn Africa, where he witnessed unspeakable violence and suffering, has left him haunted and deeply cynical. Now he’s looking for a way to forget and a place to belong. He hopes to find both back home in St. Dennis.
When Carly is forced to move the premiere of her new exhibit from her Manhattan gallery to St. Dennis, and Ford agrees to temporarily take over the town’s paper, the two cross paths. While Ford is confounded by Carly’s unflappable good cheer, he can’t help being drawn to her. And undaunted by Ford’s restless heart, Carly sees a man worth caring for. But when a late-night phone call sends Ford back to Africa, Carly’s left to wonder if the pull of the past and its ghosts will prove stronger than the promise of their future together.
Advance praise for On Sunset Beach

“Another excellent entry in the Chesapeake Diaries series. I love the small town of St. Dennis and its inhabitants. Grace's son Ford comes home from Africa a haunted man. Carly Summit is building a gallery to house Ellie Ryders' great-great grandmother Carolina Ellis’ artwork. They meet at Ford's welcome home party and it's instant attraction. Ford is pulled in to create a security network for the expensive art and the budding relationship is slow to develop but very satisfying. This a very comfortable read. Ms Stewart leaves us anticipating the next chapter of St. Dennis, hopefully Dan's story.”
