They were high school sweethearts, torn apart by dreams too big for their hometown. Now fate—and a wedding—has brought them face-to-face again.

Mabel Mawell left Cedar Bay with a suitcase full of ambition and a heart full of Cole Bennett. Years later, she's a successful attorney in Portland, with a sharp wardrobe, a sharper mind, and a career that leaves little room for nostalgia.

Cole never stopped loving her.

When they cross paths at their friends’ wedding, the years fall away—and so do Mabel’s defenses. Cole is older, steadier, and still entirely hers in all the ways that matter. And this time, he’s not letting her go without a fight.

What begins as a spark rekindled quickly turns into a full-blown fire. But can a woman who built her life somewhere else find her future in the hometown—and the man—she once left behind?

Sweet, steamy, and full of heart, Back in the Bay is a second-chance romance about old flames, new beginnings, and the kind of love that never quits.
