Life's a Beach by Claire Cook

With a title like Life's a Beach, what else would one expect but a great beach read from author Claire Cook? The protagonist, Ginger Walsh, is 41, living in the small apartment over her parent's garage, making sea glass earrings and dating a glass blower named Noah who throws pebbles at her window instead of calling. To top it off, Ginger's adopted a cat whose name was already "Boyfriend."
Ginger's life gets turned upside down when her nephew Riley, son of her perfectionist, Blackberry addicted sister Geri, gets a role in a shark movie being filmed in their town of Marshbury, Connecticut. Then Ginger's parents decide to sell their house. Ginger meets a sexy electrician on set that makes her rethink how her life is going so far. Claire Cook has created a hilarious and touching story as Ginger finally comes-of-age at 41 years old.
