She's hiding from her past. He's avoiding his future. When a storm rolls in and cuts off all escape routes, will two lost souls finally find their way?
Gemma has reinvented herself on Lockhart Island, trading her old name and broken trust for a fresh start as the Beached Inn’s bright, capable receptionist. But when the inn’s grand opening brings a ferry full of colorful guests — and a storm brewing on the horizon — she finds herself juggling chaos, secrets, and an infuriatingly absent handyman she can’t quite figure out.
Finn has learned to keep his feelings close and his schedule his own. Quietly carrying the weight of other people's loneliness, he shows up in his own time and his own way — which is exactly the problem, as far as Gemma is concerned. But beneath his unhurried smile lies a man whose heart is far bigger than she realizes.
Ready to write him off, Gemma can't explain why he unsettles her every time he unexpectedly comes through. And while she's busy building a life she can trust, Finn is starting to wonder if the one person worth opening up to is the one determined to push him away.
Can two people who've been burned before trust the island's oldest legend — and each other?
The Beached Inn is the charming first book in the Beached Inn series. If you like lovable misfits, cozy seaside settings, and slow-burn romance with a touch of local legend, you'll fall for this island of lost souls looking for love. Buy Love Is Full of Surprises and book a room for romance today!
