The ocean doesn’t keep secrets—it only holds them for a while.
When high-powered executive Maya Chen gets an unexpected call from her estranged sister, she’s forced to return to Seahaven, the small coastal town she left behind five years ago. Her father’s heart attack is the reason she comes home… but unfinished family business and the pull of the ocean may be the reasons she stays.
Between running her father’s struggling surf shop, clashing with her free-spirited sister, and unexpectedly bonding with a local surf photographer, Maya finds herself caught between the life she built and the one she abandoned. Old resentments rise like storm swells, and long-buried truths threaten to crash over her just as she begins to find her footing in the water—and in her heart.
As summer unfolds, Maya must decide: will she return to her corporate world, or take the leap into a life shaped by salt, surf, and sisterhood?
Perfect for fans of Elin Hilderbrand, Nancy Thayer, and ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty,’ this heartwarming and uplifting novel celebrates second chances, small-town charm, and the enduring bonds of family.
