Angol
She's convinced love belongs in her memories.
He's certain his second chance already came and went.
But Gull Island has other plans.
Widowed business owner Annie Lawson lives a full life, running her shop, raising her young son, and keeping her heart carefully guarded. Letting someone in again isn't on her to-do list. But when the cottage next door fills with a bestselling author and single dad carrying more regret than pages written, the predictable rhythms of Annie's life begin to shift.
Cal Carter comes to Gull Island to escape a painful divorce, rediscover his writing voice, and rebuild trust with his teenage daughter. What he doesn't expect is a charming neighbor whose warmth slips past his defenses and makes him question the future he thought was settled.
Between sea turtle nests, summer storms, and twilight talks, Annie and Cal drift closer than either intended-until a long-buried truth from Cal's past asks them to risk what they've worked hard to protect, and they must decide if the love waiting right next door is worth choosing at last.
Book Two in the kisses-only Gull Island Romance series. Each book can be enjoyed on its own.
