Book Review: House on Firefly Beach By Jenny Hale #BookonTour #Bookouture #NetGalley

Nothing beats falling in love under the sun, with the sand beneath your feet. This gorgeous, feel-good, and heartwarming summer escape from the bestselling author of The Summer House is perfect for fans of Mary Alice Monroe, Susan Mallery and Nancy Thayer.

For Sydney Flynn, her treasured family home, Starlight Cottage, is her sanctuary. The house on the beach, surrounded by glittering turquoise waters, is the perfect place for her fresh start, piecing her life back together after it fell apart. That’s until her knees almost buckle at the sight of Nate Henderson.


As teenagers, Sydney and Nate spent their summers whispering sweet nothings and promising “forever” to each other. Sydney never imagined that her childhood sweetheart was going to break her heart, driving away from her and Firefly Beach, never looking back.


Now, when Sydney spots him at her sister’s wedding, their eyes meeting across the rows of guests, she barely recognizes him. The down-to-earth son of a fisherman, forever in beach t-shirts and flip flops, is replaced with a successful songwriter in a designer suit, a superstar in the country music scene. Yet despite everything, his dazzling blue eyes and easy smile stir up all the feelings she thought she’d left behind.

Nate is back to make it up to Sydney, but can she forgive him for all the heartbreak he caused? And it’s not only about her – Sydney is a single mother to Robby, her whole world, and she won’t let just anyone into their lives. Can she trust that Nate has really changed?

As if worrying about Nate wasn’t enough, a new development threatens Starlight Cottage, the safe haven that saved her when she had nothing else. Can Nate and Sydney overcome their past to save Firefly Beach and the house that holds so many memories for them? Or will the town they adore, and the love they have for one another, be lost forever?


When I graduated college, one of my friends said, "Look out for this one; she's going to be an author one day." Despite being an avid reader and a natural storyteller, it wasn't until that very moment that the idea of writing novels occurred to me.

Sometimes our friends can see the things that we can't.

While I didn't start straight away, that comment sowed a seed and several years, two children, and hundreds of thousands of words later, I completed a novel that I felt was worthy of publication. The result was Coming Home for Christmas, a heart-warming story about the magic of love at Christmas, and 2017 TV movie on The Hallmark Channel. 

The rest is history. 

When I'm not writing, I'm a mother of two boys and a wife to a very supportive husband.




The House on Firefly Beach
By Jenny Hale
Review by Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews 

First, I want to thank Jenny Hale, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me this book so I may bring you this review. 

Jenny Hale’s The House on Firefly Beach is a must read for the summer!! I absolutely loved it! This is a very sweet read that will put a smile on your face and love in your heart. 

The cover is just breathtaking and immediately drew me to the book. Not to mention I was already a fan of Jenny’s. The graphic artists did a great job capturing the essence of the story in the graphics. It made me want to jump into the picture. 

There were so many aspects I loved about this book.  For example little Robby pulled on my heart strings big time. He was too adorable and so excitable over little things. I loved how important family was to eachother in this book. 

There were also some life lessons in this book that everyone could learn from. 

If you know me you know I love everything celebrity and country music. So that aspect of the story really interested me. Jenny gave you an inside look of what being famous could be like. You get to see the good and the bad aspects of it. 

Like her Christmas Books I can see this too on Hallmark as a book to movie!
