She wasn't looking for a new life. She was just looking for a weekend away.
When Natalie Cooper returns to Heron Bay for her high school reunion, she expects a few days of nostalgia and an ocean view. What she doesn't expect is the way the little coastal town wraps around her like a favorite sweater she forgot she owned...familiar, warm, and impossible to take off.Her two oldest friends are here, the ones who knew her before life got complicated. The porch conversations stretch past midnight. The laughter comes easier than it has in years. And when they convince her to stay for the summer with her teenage daughter, Natalie says yes before she can talk herself out of it.
The days take on a rhythm she didn't know she needed. Coffee on the deck at sunrise. Salt on her skin by noon. Wine with her best friends as the sky turns pink. Her daughter starts to bloom in ways Natalie thought she'd lost.
And then there's Ethan Morrison.
A man from her past who's kind, steady, and patient in a way that undoes her. The pull between them builds so slowly she almost doesn't notice, until a lingering touch becomes a late-night conversation becomes a kiss that rewrites everything she thought she knew about what her heart was still capable of.
Falling in love after a certain age isn't simple. She has a daughter who's watching, a past that still holds weight, and a future that's only hers if she's brave enough to reach for it. But some summers don't just change your plans. They change your whole life.
Reunion at Heron Bay is the first book in The Saltwater Girls series--for everyone who believes that love doesn't have an expiration date, and that the best chapters of your life might be the ones you haven't written yet.
