Pieces of Blue by Holly Goldberg Sloan

3.5

When Paul Hill drowns in a surfing accident, his broken-hearted wife, Lindsey, and their three children are left in huge financial trouble. Once Paul’s life insurance finally comes through, Lindsey impulsively uses the money to buy a charmingly ramshackle motel in Hawai’i, hoping for a fresh start.

This one for me, had a super slow start. I actually considered DNFing, but kept going. I just felt like nothing much happened for the first at least half of the book. But then two things happened really quickly that did draw me into the story. Then I had to keep reading to find out how these situations resolved. I did really enjoy the last third of this story, but was definitely a struggle to start. The ending was pretty satisfying, but a tiny bit unbelievable in one aspect.
