Beach Colors

A Novel

By: Shelley Noble

Narrated by: Erin Bennett

While renowned designer Margaux Sullivan was presenting her highly praised collection during New York City's Fashion Week, her husband was cleaning out their bank account. A week after he disappeared, the bank foreclosed on Margaux's apartment and business.

Suddenly broke, betrayed, and humiliated, Margaux has nowhere else to turn to but home: the small coastal town of Crescent Cove, Connecticut, where she once knew love, joy, and family before she put them behind her on the climb to fame. When she's stopped for speeding by local interim police chief Nick Prescott, Margaux barely remembers the "townie" boy who worshipped her from afar every summer. But Nick is all grown up now, a college professor who gave up his career to care for his orphaned nephew, Connor. Though still vulnerable, Margaux is soon rediscovering the beauty of the shore through young Connor's eyes...and, thanks to Nick, finding a forgotten place in her heart that wants to love again.

But as she continues to work on a bold new line that will get her back into the game, Margaux realizes that soon she will have to make the most important, most difficult decision of her life....

Good Story

Complex characters, good laughs, some tears.
With the conclusion much was explained so keep reading.

Lovely read

4.5 stars. I really enjoyed listening to this book. I've been struggling lately to find books that keep my attention (side effect of listening to a lot of books) but I finished this one in a day. Worth the credit.

So good!

My first Shelly Noble novel. I loved it. Cute story. Kept me interested and I loved that it was narrated by Erin Bennett. I will definitely read/listen to more Shelley Noble books.

Enjoyable listen!

Sweet stories. J really enjoyed the interpersonal relationships between friends, family and love interest family. The struggle to choose what life she desires all came together beautifully.

Mediocre At Best

This was the first novel I ever read by Ms. Noble but I probably won't read any more. I found the writing mediocre, at best and boring at worst. The story was tired and predictable. I found Margot to be very selfish. She didn't even realize that she used the fine folks of Crescent Cove to make her comeback in the design world and then deserted them. Don't waste your time with Shelley Noble. Read something by Barbara O'Neal/Samuel instead of you want some quality writing.

Good story but drags out !

I got bored halfway through . Not my favorite. Tried but to whiny and bored me to tears .

Wonderful story

This is a wonderful story and beautifully written.
I love to read stories set by the beach

I was looking for another great beach read! GREAT!

I was looking for another great breach read for my relaxing trip, and it definitely came through!! So happy to find another great author!!

Shelly writes another great story

Beach colors is a great book with a cast of characters that are interesting and well narrated. Enjoyed the story and the life changing choices made by the main character.
