    About this ebook

    ‘One of my top books of 2017… side-splittingly hilarious’ The Writing Garnet

    ’The day I turned 28, I bought a lighthouse and met the love of my life’

    Bobbie Hannigan’s life in a cottage by the sea with her dog and her twin sister is perfectly fine … until she decides the logical thing is to buy a lighthouse and open a music venue with Ross Mason, the first boy she ever kissed.

    Bobbie tries to be professional with Ross, but the happily-ever-after they’re working toward is too good to resist. That is until someone from his past crawls back to cause trouble. Can Bobbie look past the secrets Ross has been keeping from her? Or will the boy, the lighthouse, and the dream all slip away?

      I magine a sticky, early August morning, around three o’clock. It is dark, the moon blocked by clouds, no streetlights, a siren in the distance, medics running to a heart attack. Imagine a man out on a bike or walking a sick dog, or maybe a woman who

      After a difficult breakup Bobbie is now living with her twin sister Jess. She's having a peaceful and quiet life until she meets Ross. Bobbie used to like Ross a lot, but they lost contact. Now Ross is offering her his uncle's lighthouse for a symbolic amount. It's her birthday and Bobbie is ready for a challenge, so she decides to buy it. She has an even better idea though, they should purchase it together instead and open a music venue, which is something Ross has been dreaming of for years. Will they be able to pull it off?

      Ross gave Bobbie her first kiss and the butterflies in her stomach that were there back then are still present. However, Ross isn't as unattached as Bobbie would have liked him to be. He's a man with a lot of baggage and Bobbie has to decide if she can handle taking this. Will getting involved with him jeopardize their lighthouse project or can they remain professional? What will happen when secrets of the past are coming to the surface, will Bobbie and Ross be strong enough to survive whatever comes their way?

      Meet Me at the Lighthouse is a wonderful story. Bobbie is a fantastic person. She's smart, knows how to get things done and she's sweet. She used to like Ross a lot and sparks keep flying between them. Ross is kindhearted and easy going and he's a talented musician. They get along fabulously, but they also have a project to take care of and being involved personally and professionally can be a challenge. It was fascinating to see what would happen between them. I loved their playful banter, great chemistry and close friendship, but things aren't as uncomplicated as they seem, which gives the story a nice layer of depth. There are things Ross can't share and finding out more about his secrets kept me glued to the pages.

      Mary Jayne Baker has a fabulous easy flowing writing style that mesmerized me from the very beginning, I just had to keep reading. I loved the way she describes the lighthouse and everything that has to be done to turn it into a music venue. It was fun to read about the ups and downs of that process and the amazing community spirit put a big smile on my face. I love heartwarming stories and Meet Me at the Lighthouse has the exact right feelgood factor. I really liked this book and highly recommend it.
