View from the Shore (en Inglés) - Liza Simone

A laid-off communications executive rents a beach cottage for one week and finds love with a bookshop owner in a second act she never planned for.

Claire MacEniry built a career in corporate communications and lost it in the time it takes to walk out of a building with a cardboard box. Struggling with the realization that her employer thought she was too old for the job, she books a week at a beach house to figure out what comes next. With the silence comes the desire to finally start writing like she always dreamed about.

Sam Ralston owns the only bookshop in town and has spent years quietly avoiding a manuscript of his own. Claire’s ex-husband left her for a younger woman, and lately the world has had a way of looking straight through women her age. Sam doesn’t. But building something new means risking losing it again, and after one broken marriage and a career that ended without warning, Claire isn’t sure she has the nerve to want anything this much a second time.

"View from the Shore" is a heartfelt, later-in-life women’s fiction novel with a closed door romance, featuring a midlife career reinvention, small-town charm, and unexpected love that arrives right on time.
