Harbor View Cozy Fantasy Series Welcome to Harbor View, where the gossip travels fast, the ghosts linger longer, and no secret stays hidden forever... When Skye Randall returns to her quirky New England hometown after her mother's sudden death, she brings along her fifteen-year-old daughter, two weeks' worth of plans, and absolutely no intention of staying. She's here to settle the estate, sell off the antiques, and get back to California to rescue her crumbling marriage. Easy, right? Not a chance. Harbor View has other ideas. The cozy seaside village comes with nosy neighbors, salty sea air that smells faintly of magic, and two opinionated ghosts haunting the bookstore and antique shop facing First Street. Skye's kept their existence a secret from her daughter, but when strange happenings suggest Clare's death wasn't just a tragic accident, she realizes she's going to need all the help she can get—even if some of it comes from the other side. As Skye and Ocean navigate loss, family secrets, and a whole lot of supernatural shenanigans, they'll discover that some legacies are worth fighting for. And in Harbor View, the past doesn't just knock politely—it barges right in. In a town where secrets linger and its spirits refuse to stay quiet, two weeks might change everything! Heartfelt, funny, and filled with seaside magic, First Street is the first book in the Harbor View Cozy Fantasy series...where family ties, ghostly help, and a touch of mischief make all the difference.
