Title: Tassy Morgan’s Bluff
Author: Jim Stinson
Publication Date: June 28, 2011
Publisher: Plume Books (a division of Penguin)
A wonderfully funny and warm introduction to the quirky inhabitants of a small town located on the breathtakingly scenic northern tip of California.
San Andreas, California. It may be a quaint town, but its residents have high hopes for its future as a tourist destination. There’s Bill the Fixer, the handyman who sidelines in chain-saw sculpted redwood totem poles; real estate agent Margaret Nam, who plans to make a mint rehabbing beach shacks; and Jimi, the well-to-do hairstylist whose chair is the epicenter of town gossip. Amid their town’s growing pains, widower Lincoln Ellis and Tassy Morgan, a recently divorced painter, meet and-much to their surprise-sparks begin to fly.
Beautifully written and infused with sly humor, Tassy Morgan’s Bluff will welcome readers of all ages to a place they’ll want to visit again and again.
Check out the book’s trailer!

This actually looks like a great beach read, I’ll have to keep an eye open for it. Can’t wait to read your review!
This looks like a fun read. Have a great day!
I love the cover!! Thanks for pointing it out to us!!
I like the trailer, and the part where is says don’t ask why half this wall is purple. Really cute. I didn’t like the music to the trailer though, it wore on my nerves after 30 seconds or so. But it seems like a great summer read.
I received this one unsolicited, too – and read it last week. It was a lot of fun – a perfect summer read. The town is quirky, and I think there is room for a series featuring the community.
Cool! I got the impression that there might be more books to follow, so that’s good to hear. Glad you liked it! Maybe I will get to it at some point this summer (I can dream, right?!). LOL
I love the look of this one.
I’m with you; that cover is totally fun! and the synopsis also makes it look great, especially for a nice, warm-weather read!
Great idea… I love the way the cover looks like! Bright colors and fantastic designs…
