What Is the Next Chapter for Ten Beach Road Ladies?


I hope that everyone had an enjoyable Christmas holiday!  Today we are once again turning to the beach.  It is time to get your tool belt out and help the ladies of Ten Beach road renovate another house.  This time the location is South Beach, Florida in Wendy Wax’s Ocean Beach.  Anyone say road trip?

“When unlikely friends Madeline, Avery, and Nicole arrive in Miami’s South Beach neighborhood, they’re hoping for a do-over. Literally. They’ve been hired to bring a historic house back to its former glory on a new television show called Do Over. If they can just get this show off the ground, Nikki could fix her finances, Avery could restart her career, and Maddie would have a shot at keeping her family together.
 
The women quickly realize that having their work broadcast is one thing, but having their personal lives play out on TV is another. Soon they’re struggling to hold themselves, and the project, together. With a decades-old mystery—and hurricane season—looming, the women are forced to figure out just how they’ll weather life’s storms...” (Amazon)

My Thoughts: 

I enjoyed this novel.  I am reviewing Ocean Beach as a stand alone novel.  I always enjoy visiting the ladies of Ten Beach Road should you continue to follow their journey.   Ocean Beach is the second novel in the series.  It has a great setting that includes South Beach.  There is significant growth in each of the characters at the end of the novel. I was glad to see Avery have a chance to grow up a little and appreciate her mother.   I enjoyed reading about how the ladies out witted the cameras for the reality television show.   A truly fun read!



You can preorder Wendy’s next novel My Ex-Best Friend's Wedding.

Have you ever wondered how Writer’s Corner came to be?                                        A blogger friend recently asked why did you start your blog?   I once said that I would never blog or write.   I was in a job search at the time and it was not going anywhere.   So I decided that I would work on my writing.   I found a nonpaying writing position with chicklitclub.com .   I started Writer’s Corner initially to practice what I wrote for that site.      The next part of the journey was meeting some great ladies that some of you know well Samantha Janning at Chick Lit Plus , Melissa Amster and Amy Bromberg from ChickLit Central , Laura Kay from A Novel Review , Pia from So Many Books So LittleTime , and last but not least Liz and Lisa from their  author site.   I am so thankful for their support. I also had an opportunity to feature Liz and Lisa’s novel Your Perfect Life .   I live in the Atlanta area and get many opportunities to meet some great authors.   Some t
