DEEP WATERS by Jayne Ann Krentz
A love story and mystery with philosophical sayings thrown in.
Charity used to run a major company in Seattle-taking over after the death of her stepfather and mother. She was running it until her step siblings were out of college. She was about to be engaged to marry and join companies with Brett when she could not go through with it. She left it all behind and ended up in Whispering Waters Cove a small coastal town. She ran a bookstore on the pier. Elias inherits the pier and a novelty shop on the pier as well as a home there and relocates there. Turns out he is also the head of a large company, as well.
When people start getting murdered, he and Charity start to investigate.
For me the philosophical sayings got confusing.

THE APPLE ORCHARD-BELLA VISTA CHRONICLES by Susan Wiggs
Another fast and fun read by Susan.
Tess deals with finding and returning stolen antiques to the family. She meets one such lady while returning her mothers necklace. Kinda odd in that this lady requested her specifically.

Isabel grows up on an estate that has an apple grove with her grandparents.
When her grandfather falls while picking apples her world is about to change.
Seems that Tess and Isabel are half sisters and are about to meet.
