Sea Glass Memories, book 2 in the Seahaven Sunrise series, introduces readers to Elana, Carlos’ sister, as she seeks a fresh start in the charming coastal town of Seahaven after experiencing devastating losses. As she meets the town residents and settles in, she works through her grief by embracing new experiences and opening her heart to love again. Throughout the narrative, sea glass serves as a meaningful recurring symbol of the grief process. While the focus is on Elana and the new people she meets, beloved characters from the previous novel weave into the story to the delight of the reader. Notably, Kit Gilmore, who is renting her place to Elana, becomes a big part of her healing process.
Anne Marie Bennett writes delicately about loss and the intricate process of grieving through multiple points of view. The writing has a smooth flow, and readers do not need to have read the previous novel to follow along. The author predominantly explores internal conflicts over external, making the emotional journey more profound. Although dealing with tough subject matter, the narration is light, and invites hope to the dialogue. I would recommend this to anyone familiar with loss or who is seeking a touching and optimistic perspective of this heavy topic.
Sublime Line: Sea Glass Memories, the second novel in the enchanting Seahaven Series, weaves a beautifully intricate tale of healing, love, and resilience.
