The Sweet Life by Courtney Ronan Imagine a quiet, seaside town on the Pacific, where pristine stretches of coastline provide the perfect setting for sunset-watching or a sunrise stroll. An eclectic assortment of beachfront homes afford breathtaking views.
Life is peaceful here without being too isolating.
You've got access to all of the modern conveniences you need, and should you desire a taste of big-city life, Los Angeles is within easy driving distance. This perfectly situated town is Oxnard, California, a city of more than 158,000 residents sandwiched between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles along a beautiful stretch of Pacific coastline. As you enter Oxnard, the first thing you're likely to spot is its surrounding farmlands. Oxnard marches to the beat of its own drum. Instead of joining the growing ranks of cities specializing in high technology, telecommunications or other industries of the future, Oxnard prefers to do what it has long done best.
