A Wedding at Meadows Shore by Eva Charles
Date of Publication: May 2, 2016
Blurb
Prepare to fall in love with the Claytons and Harringtons, a wealthy and powerful New England family with a rich Portuguese heritage. Visit their beloved Meadows Shore nestled in the charming seaside town of Fair Harbor, where you'll enjoy love, laughter, loyalty, and an abundance of mouth-watering food.
A Wedding at Meadows Shore is Sophie Clayton's story. Smart, stubborn, and strong, family means everything to her. After a failed marriage, she creates a new life for herself, one that excludes men. Sophie doesn't trust men, or maybe she doesn't trust her judgment when it comes to them. Then she meets Max, a man who leads his life in a way that challenges those very trust issues.
Max Parker is a handsome playboy with a taste for younger women and a past that haunts him. He keeps what's left of his heart well protected behind a cool exterior, and fills the emptiness with lucrative business deals, punishing exercise, and women he'll never love. But there's another side to Max, one that he keeps well hidden, until Sophie blows into his life like a whirlwind and knocks him off his game, threatening to expose his darkest secrets.
There's an Old Portuguese adage that translates as, "the rooster crows loudly, but it's the hen who's in charge". And so it is with the Claytons and Harringtons: strong women, alpha males, and of course, Avó Angelina, the family matriarch who keeps them all on their best behavior.
Bem vindo à família, Welcome to the family!

REVIEW BY TABITHA:
Such a great feel good contemporary romance book! This is the first book I have read by this author and I was pleasantly surprised. It starts out with Sophie walking in on her husband in a very compromising position and he of course blames her for being a cold b*tch. Typical cheating response. Sophie is one tough cookie. I really, really liked her character. She was fiery and had quite the spunk and definitely wasn't afraid to put Max in his place. I absolutely love the banter between these two. Max, oh Max, man he was so yummy. I fell in love with these two from the get go and really rooted for them. Max was such a good man despite what he thinks. And the male cousins were hilarious!!! I can not wait for more in this series. I think this is one author to definitely check out. I give this one 5 AMAZEBALLS stars!
About Eva Charles
Eva Charles is the author of the multi-titled Meadows Shore Series that chronicles the lives and loves of the Clayton-Harrington family. She invites you to visit their beloved Meadows Shore nestled in the charming seaside town of Fair Harbor, where you will enjoy love, laughter, loyalty, and an abundance of mouth-watering food, Portuguese style.
After being a confirmed city-girl for more than thirty-five years, Eva moved to beautiful Western Massachusetts in 2014. There, she found herself living in the woods with no job, no friends (unless you count the turkeys, deer, and coyotes roaming the backyard), and no children underfoot, wondering what on earth she'd been thinking. But as it turned out, it was the perfect setting to take all those yarns spinning in her head and weave them into a romantic tale.
When she's not writing, trying to squeeze information out of her tight-lipped sons, or playing with the two cutest dogs you've ever seen, Eva's creating chapters in her own love story.
