LOVE over CAREER or CAREER over LOVE? 

Emma Jennings thought she had her whole life set for once. She was on the path to a successful career, she had friends to lean on, and on top of everything, she had a caring, selfless, boyfriend, Andrei Pierce. One day, Andrei receives an offer of a lifetime, which changes everything. His career takes flight once more, but the thing is, he has to travel all the way across the world for this career. It's up to Emma to piece this together. 
From life, we learn that not everything is meant to be sustained. So, can we really have it all? A career and a love interest all at the same time, or is it too perfect?

Emma Clarke, a dedicated architect from New York City, is assigned to Harbor Creek, a sleepy beach town, to construct an environmentally friendly hotel. Unfortunately her whole life up until now has been centered around her career, which in turn has left her with no time for love or self examination. Harbor Creek is supposed to be just another project, but it soon proves to be much more. In Harbor Creek, Emma meets Nate Harper, a former travel photographer who now runs his family's bed-and-breakfast after a personal tragedy. Nate is happy with his small, peaceful life in the small town and does not want anything to do with the hotel project that emma has been working on. Nate sees the project as an intrusion on the quaintness and tranquility of Harbor Creek, and he isn't afraid to voice those sentiments. Although they are complete opposites, emma is attracted to nate's relaxed, and easy going attitude. His presence and the tranquility of the town begin to chip away at the fast-paced, career-driven persona she's built over the years. The longer she is in harbor creek, the more her priorities change. But Nate has a past that he can't escape that he refuses to reveal, and Emma's dreams of having a career catch up to her when it's time for her to complete her project for her major. Both face their own emotional battles-Emma, deciding if love and personal happiness are worth sacrificing her career for, and Nate, wrestling with the idea of moving on from his past. Their blossoming relationship is put to the test with these individual hardships, the hotel looming over head, and the emotional barriers they've both constructed. While dealing with their fears, Harbor Creek serves as the setting for a love story involving healing, self-discovery, and the strength of moving on. Will emma gamble her career for thru happiness? Is Nate going to be able to look into the future with Emma and find it in his heart to let go of the past?

❝In sickness and in health, to love and to cherish...❞ Evie Stanton dreamed of playing the bass for a living before a fateful winter night hurled her into adulthood at the age of eighteen. Three years later, the former wild child hasn't let her past define her and does her best with what she's learned from it - be there for others as much as possible. Harry Moran had it all - a beautiful girlfriend, good looks, popularity. What no one could see behind his charm and sense of humor was a middle child who kept all of his problems to himself, even after receiving a heartbreaking diagnosis, so as not to be a burden to anyone around him. And then, the two meet. Art meets sports, heavy metal meets alternative rock, but more than anything, stubborn meets stubborn. Big-city girl with a savior complex meets small-town boy who simply refuses to be taken care of. Unstoppable force from Manhattan meets immovable object that has come to get on her nerves all the way from Colorado, and what better way to deal with it than to make her life all about saving his? // TW: serious illness, strong language, alcohol, mentions of substance abuse, mentions of physical abuse
