Lauren Liess, the bestselling author of Habitat, Down to Earth, and Feels Like Home, explores the allure and magic of coastal living.

Thoughtful, nostalgic, inspiring, and laid-back, Beach Life delves into life by the sea and why we are drawn to it. From the homes to the food to the relaxed mindset and the therapeutic benefits of being near the ocean, life is different at the beach.
