Harbor of Dreams

"Make me over in the morning, from the rag of the world..."Those haunting words from a long-dead poet set the stage for Harbor of Dreams, a romance novel that is the sequel to Harbor of Refuge, and continues the stories of the intertwined lives and loves of "liveaboards" in a boatyard located in a quiet, out-of-the-way town in Florida.When the people at Cap'n Kelly's Marina were confronted by what seemed to be life's unsolvable problems, they found it was their place of refuge. Now as those problems are being solved-almost, it seems, by fate - their long forgotten, abandoned dreams are being realized. Is it really due to the intervention of the late Margaret Calkins, the widow of the late Kelly "Casey" Calkins and the boundless energy of their unstoppable granddaughter, Jennifer, whose life continues to be guided by Grandma's many lessons - especially the most important ones: "Those who receive much are expected to do more."Along the way, Harbor of Dreams delves into the reality of a criminal trial. Jennifer's finance, budding trial lawyer Robert J. Meacham, gets a lesson in the ethical problems of lawyering from his senior partner, Jack Townsend, after "R.J." learns too late that his client was found "not guilty" because of the perjured testimony of the man's young, frightened wife. Heartbroken by that knowledge he asks, "Now what, Jack?"This unique sequel is a cozy, heart-warming story that is a "must read" for the many people who loved Harbor of Refuge, and have asked, "Okay, but what happens next?" Harbor of Dreams provides the answers!
