He’s the storm she didn’t see coming. She’s the calm he never believed he deserved.
When brilliant architect Sheila Thompson escapes to a quiet coastal village after a humiliating betrayal by her fiancé, her only plan is to restore the abandoned lighthouse at the edge of the world—and avoid anything that looks or feels like love. Sex? Even more dangerous. But the sea has other plans.
Enter Jason Knight, the brooding local boat captain with a guarded heart and a tragic past he refuses to talk about. When he offers to help Emma navigate the cliffs and the unpredictable tides, she agrees—only to find that their forced partnership quickly turns into something neither of them expected.
As Sheila and Jason work together, sparks fly in more ways than one. What begins as reluctant cooperation soon turns into electric tension. Their laughter eases old wounds. Their walls begin to crumble. But when a violent storm traps them inside the lighthouse with no power, no escape, and too much tension to ignore, passion erupts—raw, intense, and unforgettable.
As secrets unravel and trust is tested, Sheila and Jason must decide if what sparked between them in the dark can survive in the light of day… or if their pasts will tear them apart before they can find safe harbor in each other. Can they really trust each other enough to risk their hearts when the storm finally breaks?
A steamy, emotional slow-burn romance filled with heat, healing, and the kind of love that crashes into you like the tide. It contains explicit content.
