Publisher's Synopsis
Meg Carter can't wait to spend the summer with her great-aunt Ruby, helping renovate her charming - if a little old-fashioned - inn by the ocean. But a surprise arrival changes their plans. Simon, grandson of the former owners, is selling his land next door to a luxury resort developer. The plans are certain to ruin the beautiful view of the lighthouse, which has guided lost seafarers home for generations - and put Ruby's inn out of business for good. Forget sorting through Ruby's classic book collection and spring cleaning the bedrooms: there might not ever be any new guests if the plans go ahead. Simon may be tall and handsome, with eyes like green sea glass, but he's stubborn to boot - and Meg's discussions with him always end in fireworks. Then Ruby says she has a secret about Simon to share. But the elderly lady only has time to say 'the lighthouse holds the key' before becoming desperately ill.
