The men  from Star Harbor are back!  Our story opens as  Theo Grayson is accepting a prestigious award for his novels about historical local sea faring adventures.  Val Grayson,  the oldest brother  is accompanying him.  He is extremely proud of Theo's work, but it just so happens that a person  he is investigating for the DEA will also be a guest at the award ceremony.Val has an exemplary reputation as a DEA agent,  but it comes at a cost to his personal life.  He has none! He  spends time in Boston in a neglected apartment when he needs to be near the office, but feels much more at home in Star Harbor on his houseboat.Cameron Stahl is attending reluctantly, as a favor to her very high society parents.  Cameron owns two boutiques, one in Star Harbor called Front Street Boutique the other in Boston. She  loves the business she has started, much to her mother's  chagrin. Cameron leaves the stifling room where the speeches are never ending, and encounters Val on a similar escape.She knows the Grayson brothers and is friends with the wives of Seb,Theo , and Cole . Cam and Val's chance meeting is electric,  " For the briefest instant, her heart stopped before kick starting back into gear. She knew who he was, the soft spoken eldest brother in the Grayson clan."This is an amazing story with lots of intrigue, a few dangerous moments, and an " against all odds"  love story.  Cameron is a high society woman, who wants to be a small town girl.  Val is a by-the -book lawman, brought to his knees by this brave, caring, fascinating woman.  Cole Grayson has always been my favorite brother, but getting to know the tall, silent, very protective Val has me rethinking my loyalty!I hate to think we are finished with the Star Harbor stories,  I hope Ms. Barrett has plans for more.  But I do know whatever novels she has in the works will be a must read for me!I received this novel from the editor, and NetGalley for an honest review.
