The Seaside Chronicle
July 12, 2022
Buzz Bait
Seasiders,
News on the docks is Adelaide Bradley is back in Seaside, and rumor has it she’s here to stay! (No ring was spotted on her finger, I might add!) After eight long years of living in the big city and working for Massachusetts General, she has decided to return to the shores. One can only imagine how thrilled Barbara and Keegan are to have their oldest daughter back.
But it makes you wonder if Adelaide will continue to peruse her nursing career or is she here to help at her family’s restaurant, The Seaside Grill.
A little seagull has planted in my ear that Gannon Wilson is taking the news rather well, considering Adelaide broke his heart all those years ago. I did notice Gannon has been working more than usual, piloting that precious cargo through our ship channel. Maybe he is picking up extra hours to purchase a piece of jewelry, considering he was seen in Reef Jewelers only days ago.
We’re rooting for the two of them to reunite at least as friends. Everyone knows the former homecoming king and queen had a bright future ahead of them until…well…that’s another story for another issue, Seasiders!
Fair winds and following seas!

Story
Longing to forget the pain of his wife’s death, Brock Shaw has immersed himself in the one thing that lets him escape the guilt. Bull riding. But life on the road means leaving his young son at home with his parents. They want him to give up his career and be a father to his child, but Brock needs the adrenaline to get through each day…or so he thinks. Lincoln Pratt needs a fresh start. As a top interior designer in Atlanta, she has everything she could ever want, but she’s always at her father’s mercy. Something’s missing, and she knows she’ll find it somewhere far away.

I was a small-town girl with big city dreams and more ambition than money to my name. He had everything—money, privilege, and the world at his feet. Opposites in every way, but that didn’t matter. We were lightning in a bottle, and everything felt possible when we were together. Life was perfect.

Life moves on. Only people who have never lost anyone they loved with all their heart can blindly believe those words. What if I didn't want to move on? What if I wanted to wake up every morning with that familiar ache in my chest, knowing I'd never see her again? But, life can change in a moment. I knew that better than anyone...so, when I couldn't get those mesmerizing green eyes out of my head, I decided to do something about it.

Story
What happens when you’re forced to seduce the one person you vowed never to love? You get screwed...in more than one way. I walked out of Tucker Middleton’s bedroom seven years ago, leaving him hurt and angry. Now I need his help; the only way I can get it is to make him think I want him back. The only problem is we have silently vowed to hate one another for the rest of our lives. In order to get Tucker to help me - I have to seduce him. Easy right? Hell yes! I’m the CEO of CMI Consulting. If I set my mind to something, I make it happen.

At 26 years old I never dreamed I’d walk in on my husband in bed with my best friend. At 27 years old I found myself divorced and the mother of a one-year-old son. Never mind I was learning to take the reins of my family’s apple orchard business. There was no way my life could be any more complicated...or so I thought. Can a woman who’s lost all trust in men help a man who can’t even trust himself?

It was supposed to be the best day of my life. But the second I got up, things started to fall apart. The kitchen just caught on fire. Flowers were from a funeral. My bride-to-be just had an allergic reaction, leaving by ambulance. Oh, and my ex-girlfriend just walked into the church. They say you have to see the signs when they are right in front of you. Maybe she was just mine to have.

As a divorced single father, I live by three rules: Make sure every day my daughter, Paisley, knows she’s number one in my life. No matter what, keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum, and turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life. When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: Don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny. But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I'm breaking it already.

Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

Pine River was supposed to be a new start for me. And it was, especially attending school with my three overprotective cousins, who were the triplets at the top of the social hierarchy. Except they weren’t alone there, and the first day when I came to school, I saw him. Scout Raiden. Tall. Lean. Tattooed. Mesmerizing. He was a golden god with dark and piercing eyes—looking like he wanted to eat me up. The feeling was mutual, and that was a problem.

Story
I’ve been in love with Bridger Blackwell for as long as I can remember. He’s a smoke show, kind, and gives the best hugs in the world. But best of all? He’s everything my sorry excuse for a father wasn’t. Now, I’m back in Bitterroot Valley, living across the street from Bridger and his adorable daughter. It doesn’t take long for all those old feelings to come rushing back, and every cell in my body knows that I belong with them. That they’re mine. Bridger’s arms are where I feel safest. They feel like home. I’m growing to depend on him, to truly love him and his daughter.

Not my favorite narrator, great story!
I love Kelly Elliot, and have yet to find a book of hers I didn’t like, and this one is no different. I love the characters and I especially love that they didn’t make you wait till the end of the book to see if they would get back together, I wasn’t in love with the narration, but it wasn’t horrible. I will definitely continue the series.

Heartfelt, Sweet, and Sizzling Romance!
What a great start to The Seaside Chronicles series! This beautiful second chance love story is the exact reason why I love reading romance! Adelaide and Gannon's story is the perfect balance of emotional highs and lows of a heartfelt love story, rich, relatable characters, and deliciously steamy love scenes! Adelaide and Gannon were high school sweethearts who agreed to separate to follow their dreams. They have never forgotten the other, never getting serious with anyone because no one ever measured up to the one who will always hold their heart. Now they are both back home and want to begin the life they have always dreamed of. This was so much fun watching them find their way back to each other, discovering how to be a part of each other's lives and careers, while also trying to not be the center of the whole town's attention. There were so many laugh out loud moments but many sweet and heartwarming moments as well, not to mention their fiery passion!
Grace Grant, Teddy Hamilton were amazing as they brought this wonderful story to life. They nailed all the characters perfectly, making me feel every emotion they went through, and made me laugh, cry, and totally swoon. They helped make this heartfelt, sweet & steamy romance even more entertaining!

Loved it
I was so happy when I found out Kelly was starting a new series. This 1st book did not disappoint. Loved the story line and Gannon & Addy. A really great love story. Can’t wait for the rest of the series and see where all the family members stories go. Teddy Hamilton is one of my favorite narrators and he did an awesome job. Loved reading and listening to this book. Highly recommend

Fate brings them back to forever
Addy and Gannon had big plans after high school that took them in different directions. They vowed that if it was meant to be, fate would bring them back together. And it does.
Beautiful journey for Gannon and Addy to their forever. Great kick off to a new series. Excited for the next book!

Loved it - Great story and great narration
I was beyond excited when I heard that Kelly Elliott had a new series releasing. Returning Home was everything I have come to expect from a book by Ms.Elliott and so much more.
Adelaide (Addie) Bradley and Gannon Wilson’s story quickly had me invested and such was the writing I could easily picture The Seaside Grill and Seaside. I love stories set in small towns and Ms. Elliott is one of my favourite authors in this genre.
Narrated by Grace Grant and Teddy Hamilton they brought the story to life for me. Their voices were easy to listen to and did justice to the story that Ms. Elliott wove.
This second chance at love story ticked all the boxes for me.Having loved one another and parted, it appears that fate has more in store for Addie and Gannon and I for one was so excited. I am looking forward to reading more in this series and if this book is anything to go by then she has another inning series in her hands.

A fantastic listen and a great start to a new series
Let’s be honest if you are a Kelly Elliott fan it’s exciting when she announces she has a new series coming out, well Returning Home (The Seaside Chronicles #1) is everything you would expect from this very talented romance author. This is the start of something very special !!!!!
This is Adelaide (Addie) Bradley and Gannon Wilson’s story and it’s set in the small town of
Seaside ( I love this name). This couple have a past, they loved and they walked away but fate seems intent on pushing them together so will the second time around be any better, will love win this time around….one click to find out.
This book ticked all my boxes, I adored Addie and I fell hard and fast for Gannon, I love Seaside and it’s residents and what can I say about The Seaside Grill apart from I want to work there. Looking forward to what’s coming next out if this small town.

5 Going Home Again Stars!!
There is nothing better than starting a new series by a favorite author…. New characters to fall in love with, a new town to get to know and love stories that touch my heart… this is exactly what this first book in Kelly Elliott’s newest series The Seaside Chronicles embodies!! And with the selection of Grace Grant and Teddy Hamilton as the narrators for this book, I not only got to enjoy reading Ms. Elliott’s words, but I had them truly brought to life in my ears as both Grace and Teddy did a phenomenal job of bringing this entire story and Seaside to life for me in a completely different way than when I read it.
The minute this baby hit my device I started the book immediately. I 100% fell in love with Adelaide (Addie) and Gannon from the get go. They have a strong connection and a past that was filled with love and passion, but for reasons we find out, they walked away from each other thinking they’d never have that connection again.
Well, fast forward several years and Addie is back in Seaside and let’s just say, their hearts and bodies remember the love they had for each other. But can they both move past what made them walk away to begin with?
I loved how this story progressed and their coming back together had me all swoony and fanning myself. It’s true that once you’ve found your soulmate, even if there’s a detour in a forever love, it’s meant to be. I also loved how there’s a townie newsletter that let’s everyone in Seaside know what’s going on with our H/h at some of the most opportune moments!
This book is a great beginning to this wonderful series and I for one cannot wait for Sutton’s story!

Beautiful story!
I absolutely love everything that Kelly Elliott writes! Returning Home is the first book in her Seaside Chronicles series. This book tells the story of childhood friends Addie and Gannon.
Addie and Gsnnon are graduating high school and getting ready to pursue their future goals. They are heading different directions so they agree to end their relationship. They made a promise that if they weren't in serious relationships later in life they would get back together. They both end up back in Seaside and quickly rekindle their relationship. This is beautiful small town romance about two people who are meant to be together.
I loved the connection between Addie and Gannon. The secondary characters added lots of depth to the storyline. I can't wait for the next book in this series!
