Crowded Tables: A Small-Town Island Romance - Paperback

by Annalee Thomasson (Author)

Looking for a quick escape after the death of her grandmother, Val Foster heads to Ocracoke Island for a quiet weekend away. Instead, she finds herself making an offer to buy an old beach cottage.

Finally settled after years of helping his family recover from tragedy, Jack Dixon is thrown off when Val storms into his family's real estate office with big plans and no hesitation. He isn't sure what to make of her; she's impulsive, determined, and completely unprepared for the kind of project she's taking on. And somehow... she might be exactly what their small island needs.

Jack and Val quickly find themselves drawn to more than just restoring a house. In a town where history runs deep and everyone has a seat, they learn that healing doesn't happen alone and that the strongest foundations are the ones built around crowded tables.

Set against salty air, shared meals, and the intimacy of a town that feels like family, Crowded Tables is a heartfelt small-town romance about timing, chosen family, and the kind of love that grows slowly, honestly, and right where you least expect it.
