A brief but disastrous relationship with the gorgeous Reddy, an "investment counselor" who turns out to be a con man, causes Savannah belle BeBe Loudermilk to lose everything. All that's left is a ramshackle 1950s motor court on Tybee Island. Tybee is outside of Savannah, an eccentric beach town that calls itself a drinking village with a fishing problem. Breeze Inn is a place where BeBe wouldn't normally be caught dead, but there she is, unwilling to admit failure, fighting bankruptcy. With the help of friends, she soon has the motel spiffed up and attracting paying guests. Then there's a sighting of Reddy in Florida, and BeBe decides to go after him with a plan to carry out a sting that may be just a little bit outside the law but that, with any luck at all, will retrieve BeBe's fortune.

Swindled. That’s the situation BeBe has found herself in, and she does not it, not one little bit. Reddy, investment counselor, wormed his way into BeBe’s affections, and then into her bank accounts and real-estate holdings. He ends owning nearly everything, and then disappears. She is left with a rundown motor court, and is lucky to have that. The police and her lawyer can do little to help, even though they concede she was tricked. Well, you can be sure BeBe is mad, but she subscribes to that old adage, don’t get mad, get even, and that is just what she does. First, she makes vast improvements on her motor court. Then she makes detailed plans to get her money back from the thieving con man. It takes some help from her friends, old and new, and her wily grandpa, and a lot of nerve to pull off a con on an expert con man. This story is quite well written, down to the last details, and it’s worth it just to read about BeBe’s plan. But the delightful characters, BeBe, Weezie, Uncle James, Grandpa, and Daniel, makes it all the more interesting and entertaining. ( )

loved this story, take about taking revenge!
What would you do? Who will help? Our girl BeBe is a hoot, and I wanted to help her.
Picking this one up was so entertaining, laughs and danger, well, some, even Grandpa is a joy!
Watch what happens when someone messes with this southern woman, and how her friends rally around her.
Once I finish, this one lingers and I wanted more! ( )

Another cute and quirky book by Mary Kay Andrews. # 2 in the Southern series was pretty good with just a few slower parts. The typical happily ever after ending, but that’s OK with these books. ( )

I enjoyed this book but I did find it slow going at times. This is my first book by Mary Kay Andrews. I have not read the first book in this series so I was not familiar with the characters. I didn't feel lost in this story or confused.

Savannah Breeze follows Bebe Loudermilk and her bet friend Weezie. Bebe meets a wonderful man who turns out to be a con man. As soon as I read about him I could tell she was being swindled out of all her money.

When Bebe learns that Reddy has sold her townhouse, emptied her bank accounts, took her possessions and left her flat broke. She learns that she owns a motel on Tybee Island and decides to try and make it work while she works out a plan on how to get her money back from Reddy.

The fun part is when Bebe, Weezie, Harry (guy who has helped take care of the motel) and Bebe's granddad go to Ft. Lauderdale Florida to con a con man. This is when Bebe and Harry realize that they both have feelings for each other. I enjoyed the ending and plan to read the first book and continue with this series. ( )
