Synopsis

Unlikely friends Madeline, Avery and Nicole have hit some speed bumps in their lives, but when they arrive in Miami's South Beach neighborhood, they are all hoping for a do-over. Literally. They've been hired to bring a once-grand historic house back to its former glory on a new television show called Do-Over. If they can just get this show off the ground, Nikki would get back on her feet financially, Avery could restart her ruined career, and Maddie would have a shot at keeping her family together.

At least, that's the plan—until the women realize that while having their work broadcast is one thing, having their personal lives play out on TV is another thing entirely. Soon they are struggling to hold themselves, and the project, together. With a decades-old mystery—and the hurricane season—looming, the women are forced to figure out just how they'll weather life's storms.

Goodreads review by Lisa on March 04, 2020

This is the second book in a trilogy. I would recommend reading the first one first (Ten Beach Road) since it introduces the characters and is a large part of the story so far. Maddie, Avery and Nicole are back redoing another house for a reality show (do- over). The anoimosity is gone from the first......more
