Sunburned Hearts: A Sweet Beach Romance Featuring a Fake Name, a Real Connection, and One Perfect Kiss
(2025)A novel by Wynn Valentine
She came home to escape the chaos. He checked in to avoid the spotlight. But one sandcastle contest might just build the future they didn’t know they needed.
Nora Santiago isn’t here for fun. After a public burnout derails her architecture career, she retreats to her family’s beachside inn in Siesta Key—determined to lie low, help her mom, and avoid anything that smells like distraction. Especially charming strangers who wear flip-flops to serious competitions.
Beauregard Callahan—better known to fans as country music star Beau Callan—is hiding out under a fake name after a PR scandal lit up the tabloids. The last thing he expects is to get roped into a locals-only sandcastle contest… or partnered with a woman who sees right through his laid-back act (but somehow not his identity).
She thinks he’s a handyman. He thinks she hates fun. But when a kiss under the stars threatens to turn into something real, the truth comes out—and so do the cameras.
Now Nora has to decide: is the man she’s falling for a lie, or the only one who’s ever seen the real her?
Perfect for fans of small-town charm, secret identity slow-burns, and closed-door chemistry with heart.
