I’m stuck in a lighthouse with the grumpiest man alive—and he thinks I’m the problem.

My boss caught me having a panic attack and exiled me to Crescent Harbor, Maine to restore a lighthouse. A major comedown from designing Manhattan skyscrapers.

Jake Marino, the local boat builder, makes his feelings crystal clear. All scowls and sawdust, fiercely protecting his late wife's lighthouse design from the city girl ruining it.

We share a cramped keeper's cottage with no escape, just him, me, and his ghosts.

Then I find her journal. She wanted Jake to find love again.

After he reads it, he changes.

He teaches me to sail, talks me through panic attacks, maps my body with those rough hands until I'm the one coming..apart.


But this project is ending. The next one in Dubai could launch my career into the stratosphere.

Either I stay and lose everything I've worked for. Or leave and lose the only man who's ever made me whole.

I came here broken.

Now I have to choose what breaks next—my heart or my dreams.
