Newport Negotiations — Cindy Nichols

Faith never planned to turn her small pillow-making business into anything more than a passion project -- but business is booming, and she's running out of hours in the day. When Gene Porter, a retired businessman with a knack for expansion, and Maggy, her whip-smart and business-savvy daughter, offer to help her scale up, Faith finds herself facing the one thing she's always resisted: change.

Meanwhile, the beach house is as lively as ever. Jen is balancing life as a new grandmother while navigating the ever-growing circle of friends and family who seem to gather in her kitchen at all hours. Carrie and Dirk are eyeing a new investment, and Amber is adjusting to motherhood in a way that surprises everyone -- especially herself.

As Faith weighs the risks and rewards of stepping outside her comfort zone, Gene is there with his steady, no-nonsense support, making it harder and harder to ignore the growing connection between them. But can she trust herself to take a leap -- not just in business, but in love?

With negotiations both personal and professional, Newport Negotiations is a heartwarming tale of second chances, found family, and the unexpected turns that lead us exactly where we're meant to be.
