Books like The hideaway by Lauren K. Denton
When Sara Jenkins is pulled home from New Orleans by her grandmother Margaret Van Buren’s will, she discovers that Mags has left her The Hideaway, a crumbling bed‑and‑breakfast in Sweet Bay, Alabama. Charged with renovating the property, Sara finds herself surrounded by Mags’s eccentric senior friends and the dusty memories of a place she never truly knew. As she works the house back to life, she uncovers a mysterious attic box that reveals a hidden chapter of her grandmother’s past—one of bravery, passion, and difficult choices. With the help of the old friends, Sara begins to piece together Margaret’s story. When an opportunistic land developer threatens to take The Hideaway, Sara must decide whether to fight for the house and the community she has come to love, or to return to the safe, solitary success of her life in New Orleans.
