Mischief after Midnight by Jennifer Bernard

 Toni is the manager at the Olde Salt Saloon. The owner decides to sell. The new owner Bash, is Toni's childhood crush, and best friend of her brother Tristan. She decides its time to open her own brewery with Chrissie, but slow construction on the lighthouse pushes their plans back.  They work together, he spends time with Tristan, she hangs out with Alistair, he's been in previous books. They flirt, Tristan tells Bash she had a crush on him. He realizes his crush on her is still there. She gets hurt by someone, and he rescues her and takes care of her, helping her get cleaned up.  They go talk to Police Chief Maya, and Toni tells her of when she was assaulted at age 15 and Bash rescues her. She never told anyone, afraid her parents would move them back to Chile.  They spend time together, she quits to spend her time at the brewery. His 6 year old half sister Amy falls in the water, and Toni swims out to rescue her. We find out who hurt her at age 15, we don't know him. Tristan knocks some sense into Bash who was leaving, but he goes back to Toni. Words are said, questions are answered, houses are looked at.

The next book is about Alistair, and Ruthie, both will be working at the brewery in Slow Burn at Starlight.

I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
