so we can make it back
"loving her was inevitable. terrifying. the only thing that made sense." She came back to the only place that ever felt like home - a weathered cottage on the edge of Pleasant Bay, where grief echoes in the floorboards and every tide feels like memory pulling at her ribs.

Two neighbors, both raw and unraveling, colliding in a town that sleeps through the winter. Coffee shared on porches. Smoke curling into salt air. Conversations that feel like confessions.
