A secret pregnancy. A stormy night. And a man who just might be the reason she stays.
When Claire Whitman returns to Seabrook Island for her mother’s wedding, she plans to keep her visit brief and her secrets buried. Her long-term boyfriend, Ben, is too focused on his career to notice how distant she’s become or that she’s carrying the one thing that could change everything.
Enter Jack Sullivan, a former Coast Guard officer turned boatbuilder, with calm eyes, and an inconvenient knack for showing up exactly when Claire needs someone most. When a sudden storm traps them together during festival setup, their easy banter turns into something deeper. Something Claire swore she’d stopped believing in.
Slowly, she starts to believe that maybe the future she wanted isn't gone. That maybe love can grow from kindness. And maybe, against all odds, she's falling again.
But Claire’s future in Charleston is calling, and Jack’s life is anchored firmly to Seabrook. And just when Ben returns to the island, wanting another chance, refusing to let her go, and threatening the fragile happiness she’s found, Claire must decide whether coming home was a detour or destiny.
When he stands before her, eyes full of regret, his voice breaks through the silence between them:
‘Claire that baby’s mine. And so are you.’
