There are four books in the series:
Larkspur Cove
Blue Moon Bay
Firefly Island
Wildwood Creek
Why I have these books: I actually read the first book in the series a few years ago, but never moved on to the others. I ended up buying a four-books-in-one ebook last month when I was still in my "I need a light read" mode. (I might still be there, to be honest.)
On Goodreads, I gave all the books three stars except one. Blue Moon Bay only got two stars. I don't remember why... I think I felt like it was a little contrived by the end.
I also would like to reiterate that these authors need me to edit their books for them. Not as the main editor, maybe, but rather as a "final read" editor. I could catch things like the overuse of words such as "caliche" and "diaphanous." I mean, they are impressive words, but because they aren't commonly used words, they become a distraction when they are used over and over again in a book (or in a series of books). I also would catch things like when you put events out of order. This just causes confusion for the reader who then has to go back and forth to figure out what is happening.
Otherwise, I did enjoy the series. I think the first and last books were my favorites, even though they were very different from each other.
Clean.
