For all the posts in the Beacons of Fire Series, go here.
Prologue: I love Nora Roberts books, well her books mostly those that she wrote prior to 2009. One of her book is the 1985 romantic novel, One Man’s Art, fourth in her longest series, The McGregor Series. The hero of the story, Grant Campbell, is a loner, rude, surly and impossible, who lives in an old lighthouse. Genevieve Grandeau literally lands on his doorstep during one particular stormy night. The story that follows between Grant and Gennie is what inspired me to look at lighthouses in a different light.
The third light house in our Cape Cod trip was West Dennis Light. This was funny cause the light house is inside a functioning inn and previously known as Bass River Light. Built in 1855, even though the light is no longer used, the whole structure became part of a hotel in 1938. We also saw its name sake with a giant Shuffleboard game on the floor.
