Some secrets rise with the tide. Some sink and never surface.
Isla Monroe returns to the sleepy coastal town of Driftwood Bay after a decade away, hoping to escape a scandal and start over. But the ocean she grew up loving now hides the memories she's tried to forget-and the man she left behind.
Calder Hayes, once her best friend and first love, is now the owner of the town's boatyard and the keeper of a painful grudge. When Isla unexpectedly inherits her grandmother's old seaside inn, she's forced to work alongside Calder to restore it.
As they repair walls and repaint rooms, old sparks reignite. But Driftwood Bay holds darker secrets: a mysterious disappearance, a dangerous storm, and truths that could drown them both. As the tide shifts, Isla must choose between staying afloat in the life she's built-or diving headfirst into the past she's been running from.

Before You Replied
Digi's summer plan was simple: work at her family's restaurant, hang out with friends, and stay out of trouble before senior year. Then Beck showed up. She didn't know he existed a month ago, and now - after accidentally texting the wrong number - he was everywhere. On the beach she's claimed as her own. In her parent's restaurant. At family events he had no reason to be at. And every time they cross paths, he managed to pull a little more of her world into his. What started as an accidental encounter turns into late-night conversations, shared secrets, and a connection Digi can't explain - or shake, despite how hard she tries. But Beck has his own past, and the closer they get, the more she realises that some people don't just walk into your life. Sometimes, they crash into it and leave nothing the same. This a story of chance meetings, cultural expectations, healing, and the kind of love they never saw coming - but couldn't walk away from. Hi guys, I hope you fall in love with Before You Replied, as much as I did while writing it. If you're into slow burns, men who are soft for their women, badass ladies, forbidden love, culture clashes, and characters who feel a little like people you know and love - then this one's for you.
Back To The Blue, Back To You
After four years of chasing an art career she can't quite catch, Isla Vance, 22, returns home to Willow Creek, defeated and jobless. Her last resort? A summer lifeguard position at the opulent Willow Creek Country Club, the very place she vowed never to return to. Not just because it represents the life she tried to escape, but because it means facing Jake Holloway. Jake, now 22 and the meticulous Assistant Pool Manager, never left Willow Creek or the club. He's built a quiet life for himself there, haunted by the memory of the fiercely independent girl who left him at 18 to chase her dreams. Her sudden return, bruised and uncertain, is a shock he's long braced for but never truly prepared for. As Isla dons her whistle and Jake barks orders, their forced proximity ignites old sparks and stirs long-buried resentments. She struggles with the feeling of having outgrown this life, only to find herself deeply entrenched in it once more, with Jake as her boss. He, meanwhile, grapples with his quiet longing for the girl who never looked back, even as he recognizes the talented artist he always encouraged. Through awkward staff meetings, late-night pool checks, and the nostalgic echo of their shared past, Isla and Jake must confront the college-sized chasm that drove them apart, and decide if the future they once dreamed of could still exist, even if it's right where they started.Complete
