The Lighthouse Between Us

When city architect Mara Vale returns to the storm-swept island she once swore she’d leave behind, she only plans to settle her aunt’s estate and escape before the tide turns. But the lighthouse she inherits comes with one complication: Elias Rowan, the reserved harbor master who broke her heart ten years ago and still knows every secret path along the cliffs. As winter closes in and a restoration grant forces them to work side by side, old wounds give way to unfinished truths. Mara must choose between the life she built far from home and the love that never fully let her go. A tender coastal romance about second chances, buried letters, and the courage to come back to where your heart first learned its name.
