Natalie has always been the fun Grant sister: the one with the constantly packed suitcase and the zest for life. But this carefree existence is wearing on her. When her oldest sister, Olivia, invites her to Lavender Island for three months, Natalie jumps at the chance to look after her niece, prove she’s notirresponsible, and take a much-needed vacation from men.
Her “mancation” takes an unexpected turn when she spots a group of sick sea lions and calls on microbiologist Elliott Sherman for help. Elliott is everything Natalie is not—quiet, studious, and geeky. Yet there’s a simmering sexiness under those glasses that she’s quick to notice. And Elliott finds himself taken with her gorgeous free spirit. Despite their chemistry, outside forces threaten to keep them apart—including a secret Natalie has never shared. Can the allure of Lavender Island and its quirky residents open her heart and lead her to lasting love?

The weather here has been nice..we had a very warm green Christmas, but then a very cold snowy new year….
generally, it is not too cold. Last week it hit 85. Today was genuinely chilly, as it went down to 48.
Its been mostly mild for this time of year, but this week, it has gotten cooler.
Teens in the morning, 40’s in the afternoon but that can change at anytime.
After a warm start to the winter we are now getting cold weather here in Chicago. A good time to stay in and read.
Our nights have been in the 30s but our days have been into the 60s. Chilly for So Cal.
Cold nights and damp days.

it had been quite warm here in NJ – we had windows & doors wide open Christmas Eve. But now it has turned cold (in the 30’s).
Today it was very cold. It. Hasn’t been to bad the last few days but today had that bitter bite of cold. Thanks for the giveaway. Happy New Year.

Very cold.
I’m in Florida where it’s been 85 degrees.
New York has been pretty warm for the winter, but we’re starting to get into the in/around freezing temps.
cold, but no snow yet
down to 20 deg all day
Here in the inland valleys of So Cal, we seldom get down into the 30s at night. Days are between 60s and 80s.

Not as bad as it could be, but still too cold for me.
I am in Charleston, SC, so it’s not to cold. But around here, if it’s 50 or below, we close schools.
