COASTAL CHANGES: Coastal Beginnings Series Number 1

Coastal Changes combines elements of adventure, suspense, and romance. The plot revolves around Casey Shaw, a character who decides to leave the crime-ridden and congested environment of West Palm Beach, Florida, in search of a new opportunity. He stumbles upon an online auction listing for a run-down marina with an abandoned inn on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Casey thinks that this investment could be his ticket out of Florida, and he enlists the help of his longtime friend, Michael "Murph" Murphy.

The biggest catch is that this seemingly lucrative deal comes with a dangerous complication – a resident drug smuggler who is determined to keep his control of the marina at any cost, even murder. As Casey and Michael navigate the treacherous waters of this deal, the main question becomes whether they can stay alive long enough to close it.

Amidst the backdrop of this thrilling adventure, Casey's burgeoning romance with Sally, a native of the Eastern Shore, adds an extra layer of complexity to the story. Will Casey be able to balance his pursuit of the deal with his growing feelings for Sally?

Coastal Changes is the first installment in the Coastal Beginnings Series, which serves as a prequel to the bestselling Coastal Adventure Series by Don Rich, and is based on the book Chesapeake Cool, which is no longer published.
