Crescent Beach: A Novel

It's 1978. Siesta Key, Florida's funky little undiscovered beach town on Florida's Southwest coast, is in its prime. Birdie Noonan was a girl who knew who she was and what she wanted in life, and she was living it. Condo on the water: Check. Job at a popular watering hole: Check. Ex-husband with benefits: Check. What more could a girl want? She was about to find out. Victor Babel was a man haunted by mistakes. He arrived in search of solace and anonymity, a place to write his novels in peace. He found what he wanted and more on Siesta Key: Constant sun, calm turquoise waters, and a woman who would capture his imagination and become the muse of his dreams. But even more, he would discover that healing can be achieved when we honor our past by using it to write our future. Though they meet in Sarasota, their story winds through the deserts of Southern California and Northern New Mexico, and returns to one enchanted night on Siesta Key. Crescent Beach is the passionate love story of two people who separately had what they wanted, but together found what they needed.
