Escape to a tropical island where the only traffic comes from slow-moving golf carts driven by eccentric retirees, the commute to work involves getting sand between your toes, and happy hour means salty margaritas with a view of the ocean...

There's Always a Catch follows Holly Baxter, Christmas Key's 30-year-old mayor, as she tries to convince her neighbors (mostly eccentric retirees puttering around the island on golf carts) that progress is a necessity. Amid family secrets and surprising revelations, Holly battles her mother for control of the island that her grandparents left behind. Throw in her hunky ex-boyfriend--the island's only cop--and some magnetic chemistry with a fisherman who's visiting the island, and you'll see why Holly realizes that (in life and in love) There's Always a Catch!

"I loved this book. I grew to love Holly Baxter and friends, and loved the vibe of Christmas Key. If there really were such a place, I'd be visiting for sure, and would probably never leave!" —Amazon Review
