About this eBook

A new life. A clumsy stray. But when Megan decided to open a shop on the boardwalk of Seacrest... she never planned on murder.

Megan's first day running her new scooter rental shop comes with one massive hiccup. A purse-snatcher dashes out the front door and Megan takes off after him. The man collides with a huge Great Dane and tumbles to the ground, but when Megan stops to assess the situation, she finds a few things are very suspicious. For one, the Great Dane is wearing someone's glasses. But, more importantly, the purse thief is a billionaire who couldn't possibly be hurting for money. As the moment unravels, she finds it was all a harmless prank. 

But not everything Megan encounters is as harmless as it seems. There's the charming English woman who runs a bookstore a few doors down, the young college student Santiago who's a shameless flirt, the billionaire himself, along with the fireman, the construction crew, and the rest of the gang. Somewhere out there is a murderer, and as she stumbles across the clues, they set their sites on Megan.

A charming tale of mix-ups and mysteries where the beauty of Seacrest brings you to the page, and the chilling taste of danger holds you there. Explore the wonders of the pacific coastline with Megan and be inspired. Who knows? Maybe you'll find the courage to chase your dreams as well.

Ratings and reviews

After finishing nursing school and saying no to the proposal from Jarron, Megan moves to Seacrest where she buys a house on the beach, and a business space on Saltwater Lane, Seacrest's main street. Her first time seeing the actual business, Megan hears "Stop thief" and takes off chasing the man with the purse. Kenneth never expected to be chased when his cousin yelled. This story includes a murder, vandalism, arson, and romance, ending happily. Very highly recommended.

A Doggone Waterfront Shame was a fun read. Our heroine Megan is adopted by a gallumphing Great Dane named Fred (Astaire) who protects her as she investigates a murder, vandalism and threats. Her life is complicated by various men taking a liking to her. Could one of them be a murderer? I can't wait to read the next book in this series soon.

This story held my interest, although the plot was a bit sloppy in places, and there were quite a few errors that should have been caught and corrected before it was published. But since it was a free read, I didn't mind too much.
