When Vice-President Amelia Swanson asks them to oversee a stay at the hotel by
the Italian Ambassador to the United Nations in New York City and his family,
Ann and Rhonda hope this won’t mean another problem for The Beach House
Hotel. Enrico Ferrara, his wife, Catarina, and his daughter, Philippa, arrive
at the hotel at the same time a young chef, Chet Waring, and a friend, Harper
Lewis, seek employment at the hotel after being unfairly booted from the Miami
restaurant scene by a notorious, difficult chef. The same chef, Jonny Arno, is
opening an Italian restaurant close to The Beach House Hotel to compete
directly with them. All of these people, and a few more, come together to
create a recipe for danger, love, and loyalty.
About the Author

a publisher and self-publishes. Ms. Keim writes heart-warming novels about
women who face unexpected challenges, meet them with strength, and find love

While growing up, she loved the idea of writing stories from a young age.

about to be discovered. All in her family shared information from the books in
general conversation, giving them a wealth of knowledge and vivid
imaginations.
Ms. Keim loves to hear from her readers and appreciates their enthusiasm for
her stories, including the eight children’s book she has written under J.S.
