Miramar Bay - by Davis Bunn (Paperback)

About the Book

When Connor Larkin boards a late night bus in downtown LA, he's not sure where he's going or what he's looking for. Putting his acting career, and his fiancee on hold, he's searching for something he can't define, a part of himself he lost on the road to success. Once he dreamed of being a singer in the classic style of Sinatra and Bennett. But his lean good looks soon landed him in movies as the sexy, bad guy, and in the arms of a famous young heiress. Now, with his wedding day approaching, Connor finds himself stepping into the sleepy seaside town of Miramar Bay, where one remarkable woman inspires him to rethink all of his choices.

Book Synopsis

"I love this story. This is truly the breakout book for Davis Bunn."
--Debbie Macomber, #1 New York Times bestselling author

When Connor Larkin boards a late night bus in downtown L.A., he's not sure where he's going or what he's looking for. Putting his acting career--and his fiancée--on hold, he's searching for a part of himself he lost on the road to success. Now, with his wedding day approaching, Connor finds himself stepping into the sleepy seaside town of Miramar Bay--where one remarkable woman inspires him to rethink all of his choices . . .

Unlike the pretentious starlets back in Hollywood, Sylvie Cassick has had to work hard for everything she has. When Connor hears familiar music drifting out of her restaurant, he can't escape a feeling of finally coming home. Sylvie isn't sure what to think when this impossibly handsome stranger applies for a waiter's job. Yet once he serenades her customers--and slowly works his way into her heart--she realizes there's more to him than he's letting on. But as the world outside Miramar begins to threaten their fragile bond, Connor will have to risk losing everything to gain the life he longs for--and become the man Sylvie deserves.
