Salt Air & Sawdust
(2026)(The first book in the Sable Harbor Renovations series)
A novel by Eva Lyndale
Gideon West doesn’t do "charming." He does structural integrity, load-bearing walls, and silence. As the head carpenter for Tide & Timber, his only goal is to restore the historic Driftwood House and get back to his solitary life on the coast. He doesn’t have time for distractions. Especially not the chaotic, whirlwind event planner who just blew into town with a clipboard full of impossible deadlines.
Tessa doesn’t just walk into a room; she orchestrates it. But behind her perfect schedules and sunny smile, she’s running from a past that taught her she’s too much for anyone to handle. When a storm traps her at the job site with the surly carpenter, she expects friction. She doesn’t expect Gideon to look past her noise and see the structure underneath.
He teaches her how to read a building. She teaches him that a house isn't a home until you let someone inside. But when the project is threatened by outside forces, Gideon has to decide if he’s just fixing a roof, or building a future.
Genre: Romance
