The Marram Bay series is a trio of romantic comedies set in a fictional seaside village. Each book centers on a different woman finding love in Marram Bay, with the coastal setting and local businesses tying the stories together. The first book introduces the Apple Blossom Deli, the second moves to the village Christmas shop, and the third is set at a lighthouse B&B.
Portia MacIntosh published these between 2018 and 2020, during a period when she was also releasing several standalone novels a year. The Marram Bay books are warmer and more community-focused than her typical standalones, with the shared setting giving readers a reason to come back for more. If you enjoy small-town romance with a British coastal backdrop, this trilogy is a good place to start with MacIntosh’s work.
